First line: Every time I have ever watched a movie about middle school, the main character is always freaking out before the first day of school.
Why you should read this book: As promised by the title, this book's central thesis is that cupcakes are the solution to all of life's problems, which I am not going to argue with, although anyone over the target age group of this book (number one in the Cupcake Diary series) may be able to think of a few exceptions. Katie is wholly unconcerned about starting middle school, which, she believes, won't be any different from elementary school, until it turns out that her best friend, Callie, has made new friends over the summer and will henceforth be walking to school, sitting at lunch, and otherwise engaged during the school day with the "Popular Girls Club" (they literally and unironically call themselves that) even though she swears that Katie is still her best friend. But Katie bounces back with the help of some new friends and a lot (A LOT) of cupcakes.
Why you shouldn't read this book: Trying to cut out sugar.
