The Pity Party: 8th Grade in the Life of Me, Cass by Alison Pollet

I liked this book, it had some great moments. Cass is an orphan who lives with her aunt and wrestles with the death of her parents. The standout character in this story is crazy Rod Punkin, every scene he swelled made me smile. This is a sequel, but I didn't feel like I was missing anything by starting here.

Nobody Was Here: Seventh Grade in the Life of Me, Penelope by Alison Pollet

This book is easily relatable for middle school girls. Alison Pollet does a good job of portraying the random thoughts of a 7th grade girl, as well as the struggle that they face to find their own identities. This story has strong themes of standing up for yourself and finding true friends. It is a positive influence for any middle school student.
