Following Maggie on her seventh grade trip warms my heart! Maggie navigates her newly balanced academic and extracurricular schedule, a new student, a strict family, crushes, and her first taste of freedom. Watching Maggie navigate all these new feelings and situations is some inner-child healing for sure!

There seems to be a trend lately with these sort of middlegrade books, presenting the lead character as rather self-centered and inconsiderate to her friends all in the name of not understanding the hormonal changes they all experience differently. And I just have to say, I’m so not a fan of this. It just makes your main character seem like a jerk.
Outside of that, the story wasn’t terrible, though it did drag a bit. Still, I feel like I’d have liked it a lot more if Maggie had been a bit more considerate of everyone around her.
