Best Book Ever

In this book it shows a 12 year old girl who is trying to get through seventh grade without getting burned by the mean girls. On the way of this journey she makes a new friend, goes through some changes, and might just arrive at the end of her seventh grade journey with a boyfriend. I beleive this is a great series so far and is great for pre-teen readers 10+.

Lauren Myracle does it again!

I first picked up 11 at a borders book store. I had noting to read, so I just randomly chose 11, and at the time I was 11, so I thought it would be cool to read a book about my own age. I loved the book 11. Then I saw 12 and picked it up. I finished reading it yesterday. The book was great!

The Terrors and Triumphs of Being Twelve

Twelve, like its predecessor Eleven, follows a year in the life of a girl named Winnie. Twelve picks up right where Eleven leaves off and keeps right on going. Each month gets a chapter which either details most of the things that happened that month or highlights a special event. Suddenly, everything seems to be changing: her family, her friends, her life, her body. Winnie's sixth grade year is certainly a memorable one! The book will definitely appeal to girls in late elementary and early middle school who are going through the same things Winnie is going through. Middle school is a tough time. Readers will wince with Winnie when she gets embarrassed and smile when she conquers her fears. If you liked Eleven, you'll definitely like Twelve.

The Best Book

Omg, I love this book! I am 12 too, so this was perfect to read. I read 11, and was hooked! I finished 12 in less than a day, I couldn't get my nose out of it. There better be a 13, because the last sentence made me want to read on and on! Go Lauren Myracle!!!
