Ratings and reviews

This book is a great book for tweens. It is very funny. Rory cannot wait to turn 12 because when she turns 12, she can get a pet, have a cellphone, wear makeup, and many more things. But, when she does all of the things she wants to do they all go wrong. Read this book!!! It is sooo good. I couldn't put it down it was so good!!! READ IT!!!

Good book, but where is the magic. Book one had a lot of magic in it, but this one doesn't. The only thing rory finds out is that she is observant. That does not count as magic. Any very observant person could see the same things.

There wasn't 1 moment or sentence I didn't like in this book! It was the best book I've ever read and now it is my favorite book.I recommend this book to every girl. It has a fun dash of the things she does wrong.
