Book 184: Serena Says by Tanita S. Davis
Saw this book on Instagram on a few Pub Day posts (pub day Nov. 3, 2020). Put it on hold at the library and got it quickly.
Serena is a young lady who skipped a grade, and is now in 6th grade. Her best friend since 4th grade, JC, is out of school for several months after a kidney transplant. Serena is trying to be seen as a leader and reporter. She so wants a shot at the morning announcement that she started a vlog (just practice to start in her room). She expresses all her opinions of the day, hurts she is experiencing, and voicing the struggles middle school kids have. Serena must deal with her best friend finding another friend, and a boy in her class that she has hurt by sharing his secret. It is hard to be a middle schooler, and Serena is expressing all of it.
This was a cute book, a definite addition to a classroom library as it reviewed for grades 3 and older. You can't help but love Serena. My rating 4⭐️.
