Third Time Lucky by Meg Cabot
3.0
3.5 stars.
I really liked the ending, it made it closer to a 4 star read for me. I enjoy how quick and easy these are to read & they’re getting much more fun as they go along. I do have issues with the neighbour because it really feels like they’re using a trans person as a joke & there’s also a lot of body shaming etc because Mia is a very left leaning person and while I get she’s a kid her judgements of people are yikes to read. Unsure if I’d say it’s something I’d necessarily want my kids to read because there’s some questionable content that honestly I could have seen myself believing or thinking was ok at a young age that definitely isn’t and it’s not always in your face because most of it is just Mia being Mia.
