I liked this book and it shows you that sometimes you are aloud to have new friends when your other friends are at camp. I think that 6 graders would like to read this book best.
I thought this book was extremely cute because it involved two friends who had conversations with each other on the internet. The main character's name is, Madison, so her screename is Madfinn, and her best friend, Aimee's screename is Balletgrl. I thought this book extremely related to teenagers, because we talk online all the time. It also shows you some interesting, short phrases, such as X-S means completely confused, and NYP, means NoT your problem. Madison and her friend Aimee tries to plan a birthday party for the twins, and competes over making a web page. Throughout this book, internet chatting is often used to represent the book, so it's kind of like first person. I think that people or teenagers who like to use computers should read this book, it will inform them a little more about the life inside a computer monitor!
I enjoyed reading this book, it had a nice plot that can happen to any person in middle school. I thought they tried to make the plot a little too dramatic.
