I absolutely loved this book! I could relate to the main character and i could relate to the events happening. But the ending kind of had me on an edge. Like "what happens next???!!" Great book. Just wish it had more of an ending. Like did Erica finally forgive her? What about the new girl Erica met?? what about the kids at school? and so on.... If anyone knows about a sequel to this book please let me know because a sequel like this book definitely deserves a reading. Overall, great book. Just wish it had a little more closing that's all. Mission (Un)Popular is all about fitting in – tween style. While I normally love books about typical tween struggles, I was not entirely sold this time. Let me tell you why.Things start off great with main character Margot who is facing some common tween issues. She is self-conscience about her appearance, moody, and sad that her best friend is changing schools. To top that all off, she has been the victim of bullying at the hands of Sarah and the popular kids. I like that she is pretty much an average girl.Enter Em, the new girl from New York. Em is into acting tough, flexing the truth, and putting others down. She is the kind of girl I avoid at all costs. The thing is, Em latches onto Margot because Margot is an easy target. From there, the story becomes a mess of pranks and excessive bullying on all sides.While I appreciate that bullying is being addressed in this book, I don’t care for the way it is handled. Margot learns that being popular isn’t everything, but I am not so sure what Em learns.RATING2 Not For MeCOVER COMMENTSLooks like Em is passing a note to Margot. I like how (un) is in a different font. Cute cover.
What do You think about Mission (Un)Popular (2011)?
fine. Middle school-ers will like it. A little too mean for my taste.
