AWESOME!!!!!!!! submitted by ECReader on July 6, 2013, 10:47am this book was super good!!!!!! just like the reat of the books in the series it is awesome!!!!!!!

the cupcake diaries submitted by unknown on August 18, 2013, 12:16am The Cupcake Club is going to be a part of a very special day - the wedding of Mia's mom. Not only are all of the girls going to be junior bridesmaids but they are also going to provide the desserts.

In the third installment in the series, the focus is on Emma. She is excited to be a part of the Club and to be a junior bridesmaid, but with her mom's recent furlough from the local library, money is tight. The last thing Emma wants to be is a burden to her parents; after all, they have enough on their plate.

Emma finds herself in hot water on more than one occasion because the money she has been saving to buy a KitchenAide mixer is now going to pay for her bridesmaid dress. The only problem is time. She does not have the time needed to save the amount for the dress, so she finds herself taking extreme measures (walking too many dogs, baking too many cupcakes, and losing her younger brother) to make it happen.

This book is quite topical right now in a struggling economy, and many young readers may find a piece of themselves in Emma. While they may not have a $250 bridesmaid dress to purchase, there could be other extras in their lives that must be cut due to unforeseen circumstances.

This book's focus is on working hard, staying true to one's friends, but asking for help when it is needed.

I love the Cupcake Diaries. I always find myself invested in all of the characters, wishing I had a group like this when I was trying to survive middle school.
