Obviously I'm not the target audience for this at the moment, but I wanted to reread it before I got rid of it. Whilst I don't personally think it was laugh out loud funny (again, I know I'm not the target audience) it's still quite enjoyable! I can see why kids would love this, it has a great cast of characters and could even help with identifying learning difficulties / making kids feel more represented. I love that it's set in New York as well! The plots of the books do feel slightly farfetched, but hey it's all fun! However, I did prefer the second book slightly more than this one.
