![]() Mia in the Mix The Graphic Novel (Cupcake Diaries: The Graphic Novel #2) (Paperback):Įmma on Thin Icing The Graphic Novel (Cupcake Diaries: The Graphic Novel #3) (Paperback): Katie and the Cupcake Cure (Cupcake Diaries #1) (Paperback): This book is considered contemporary realistic fiction because even though the characters are fiction, it is based on modern problems and situations that children my face today.This is book number 4 in the Cupcake Diaries series. Katie may have some struggles though life, but she has always got her cupcake cure and her amazing friends. They make their own club called the Cupcake Club and grow within their friendship, "business", and life. Then it gets better, she goes to lunch and starts a friendship with three new best friends, Mia, Emma, and Alexis. But she claims to be still the best friend of Katie. ![]() It all starts when her best friend through life, Callie, makes new friends with the PGC (Popular Girls Club) group and totally dumps Katie. Katie has a lot ups and downs through middle school, especially one her first day. This book is told through the perspective of Katie Brown, the main character. She set a good pace and was believable as a young girl or as a teacher. Jesse Vilinsky does a fine job narrating the audiobook. And she includes a delicious cupcake recipe, because who doesn’t love a cupcake? She shows them working well together and supporting one another. The situations are relatable for most kids, and Simon gives each of these girls a unique talent to bring to the mix. I can certainly see the popularity of the series. Katie does find new friends: Emma, Alexis and Mia, and they form The Cupcake Club, pouring their energies into baking. This is a delightful read that deals with some of the harsh realities of growing up. Callie’s been invited to sit at the Popular Girls table and Katie is definitely NOT invited to join the group. And it seems her best friend, Callie, is no longer her best friend. She’ll have to learn the layout of a new and bigger building, and instead of staying in one classroom all day, she’ll be moving from classroom to lab to gym. Katie Brown is entering middle-school, and she’s understandably nervous. This is the first in the Cupcake Diaries series for middle-school children. I really loved the clever way the author incorporated 'recipes' into the story, and of course there is a simple cupcake recipe included - pineapple upside down cupcakes and they sound delicious.ĭigital audiobook narrated by Jesse Vilinsky For whatever reason, this one seemed to have less substance but I really think that's just the novelty having worn off and I'm many decades older than the target reader! They certainly can be read out of order even though each appears to be written on the heels of the one before, just a different central character. I accidentally ended up reading book 2 in this series before this, the first in the series. For Katie, that's baking cupcakes and forming The Cupcake Club with her new group of friends. It's all about the typical preteen anxieties associated with a new school, making new friends, and finding her place in it all. Katie is also wondering why her best friend Callie seems to be ignoring her. Katie, whose interests are baking and certainly NOT fashion, boys or teen magazines, is a bit anxious about starting Middle School where she and her elementary school friends will be mergeing with other schools and thus not all in the same classes any longer. Jadi siapa yang mau mencoba cupcake buatan saya? Buku ini memang pantas masuk sebagai buku favorit saya, buku teenlit yang tidak hanya sekedar "teen" tetap dari buku ini saya belajar banyak, salah satunya membuat cupcake hahahaha. Saya tidak sabar untuk membaca seri berikutnya dari "The Cupcake Diaries" ini, ingin mengenal lebih jauh dengan Mia, Emma serta Alexis. Siapa bilang remaja selalu labil? Buktinya empat sahabat ini bisa membuktikan bahwa dunia remaja pun bisa dilewati dengan positif. Dengan konflik-konflik khas remaja yang dikemas apik. Bergaya sangat remaja tetapi tidak berlebihan. Saya suka dengan penuturan kalimat dari Penulisnya. Dengan latar belakang berbeda, mereka pun saling mengisi. Persahabatan antara Katie, Mia, Emma dan Alexis bermula di saat makan siang dan di awali oleh sebuah "cupcake". Perasaan "nervous" kala menginjak dunia remaja, beradaptasi dengan lingkungan baru. Kisah remaja yang sebenarnya dialami oleh banyak remaja di dunia. Obat yang mempercepat waktu dalam perjalanan. Obat dalam mengatasi kebosanan menanti pesawat menuju Denpasar. Sesuai dengan judulnya, buku ini telah menjadi "obat" dengan caranya sendiri
