Middle Grade Monday: Blowout

Middle Grade Monday is an on-again, off-again weekly feature in which I bring in a real-live middle grader--in this case my younger sister, Ellie--to discuss the books the younger crowd is reading. This week, although she didn't like Taylor Morris's book BFF Breakup so much, Ellie tackles a title by the same author that she enjoyed more: Blowout.

Goodreads blurb:

Now that she's had her thirteenth birthday, Mickey's finally old enough to work at her mother's super glam hair salon--Hello, Gorgeous! And true to the old cliche about people confiding in their hair stylists, Mickey starts getting an earful right off the bat. Customers love talking to her because she's so empathetic, but what happens when she starts getting overly involved in their dramas? 

Review: 
This book was OK……Some parts of it I liked and others I did not, and the drama was a bit over done but other then that I liked it. The characters were explained well and Morris’s writing is not half bad. And instead of this just happing Morris went into detail about why they happened. And it turned out the way I wanted it to.

The Final Grade: B

Thanks, Ellie, and we hope to see you around here soon!
