Mia's Recipe for Disaster (22) (Cupcake Diaries) Paperback – Illustrated, October 28, 2014

I read this non-stop! Mila is my favorite character and I love how in each book they summarize the gist of the series! Looking forward to reading more!

My 12 year old 7th grader to be is in love with this series. She reads a book in one day. Definitely recommend it to any parent that has a girly girl in their household. Another plus is that the book features middle school students as main character which I think makes it easy for readers of that age to relate to.

One does wonder, however, about "Coco Simon" as the author. My daughter also read the entire "Rainbow Magic" series with all the fairies by Daisy Meadows. I explained to my daughter that the books were being "ghost written" and that the real author's name was always in the dedication. With Simon and Schuster being the publisher, "Coco Simon" would seem an obvious ploy. There's not much history about her online. Very mysterious.

A gift for my granddaughter who loves these books. She has already read it and the next one!

Daughter loves this series. She is 8 so we read them together as there is a lot of innocent girl likes boy topics.

My 10-year old daughter loves this series. I've read some of the early ones with her and I feel they are very appropriate for her. Just the right amount of girl drama and plot lines that are interesting and different enough that have her pre-ordering the next one on her own. If fact, she wishes they were released quicker she loves them so much.

My daughter loves these books to the point that she only wants to read these.

My 10 years old daughter and I love those books!!!!
