This third book about sixth-grade friends Lydia and Julie is told in the same lively handwritten journal/letter format. This time, however, the plot is a little more convoluted, and the messages about popularity are a bit muddled. Readers new to the series may be put off, but Lydia and Julie's fans will persevere.
