Nikki finally gets the courage to ask her mom for the money, but after hearing how much is needed, her mom replies “No Way! Unfortunately, Nikki has a budget of 100 dollars and she needs 500 dollars and she has a lot more problems. I had really low expectations, compared to how much I squealed when they revealed the last book's cover. Nikki doesn’t particularly enjoy spending time with her mother, but today, she accepts the invitation to go to Yoga class. It felt like the good old days when the series was just starting with Nikki and her friends doing crazy stuff that would get them arrested.

I think she's changed the books' target demographic to much younger and I don't have a problem with that. overall, it was okay i mean Nikki is pretty stupid in all of the books and i really liked the different ideas this book had.The funny part was when Nikki's little sister Briana kept baking with her new Princess Sugarplum Easy Bake Oven and made these amazing doggy snacks, great for humans and dongs. They were best selling, and Nikki and Briana became business partners, and Nikki got the birthday party of her dreams in the end, EXCEPT when the enemies came.

This book is such an incredible book and has to be one of my favourites from the dork diaries collection seeing that I’ve now finally read each and every one of them! Anyway, on the whole, I think I liked this one better than the last one because even though Nikki whined and complained as much as she always does, there wasn't any huge conflict that made me want to stop reading. Nikki and her friends find the cards, but bumped into a man and lost the invitations with all the mail. From “Backyard Picnic”, “Movie Night Pajama Party”, “Music Lover’s Listen Party”, to a random “Scream Fest”! It sort of made me wish I had written diary entries when I was the character’s age because what she viewed as OMG!This book falls into the contemporary realistic fiction because of the story is realistic for a young girl who is planning a birthday party in today's day and times. Chloe, Zoey and Brandon have proven their loyalty time and time again, yet Nikki still questions their friendship and deliberately keeps things from them. She’s got a loving family and friends and used to have cute little dramas at school that pretty much anyone could relate to. Not saying that Hollister isn't a butt, she is, but still Nikki could have done a lot of different things to prevent all her drama.
