review 1: Mallory is not at her best in this book. She is whiny and selfish throughout almost the entire story and a lot of the scenes are repetitive. I felt like the author was struggling to fill the pages of the book. And I didn't buy that Mallory would be as jealous of her best friends becoming step-siblings as she was. It didn't ring as true to me as many of the other books in the series. But most of the others up until this one were much better - Mallory's a likeable gal most of the time!
review 2: Re-reviewed on 1/23/1oI am reading this 'on the side' to encourage one of my non-readers. In this Mallory book, Mallory is whiny and unsympathetic in many ways. I recognize that she exhibits characteristics of a perfect ego-centric 10-year old (which is developmentally
... moreappropriate). Too bratty for me. Sadly,she does act like some of my students, the proper audience for these books, so I can see her appeal! In truth, I would prefer my girls to be enjoying less bratty protagonists in their fiction reading. less

Mallory continues to be very appealing. She is very likable & has realistic reactions to situations.

Loved it! It's probably the best in the Mallory series.
