When Nikki discovers that her arch-nemesis, MacKenzie, has started writing a gossip column for the school newspaper, she's worried that she will share info on Nikki's crush, Brandon, with the whole school.

To keep an eye on MacKenzie (and bonus: spend time with Brandon!), Nikki joins the newspaper and somehow ends up working as the advice columnist, Miss Know-It-All. At first, it's fun to answer all the letters from the kids at school, but when her inbox is suddenly overflowing, Nikki feels in need of some help herself. Fortunately, she has BFFs Chloe and Zoey on her side... and at her keyboard!

About the Author

Rachel Renee Russell is a lawyer who prefers writing children's books to legal briefs (mainly because books are a lot more fun and pyjamas and bunny slippers aren't allowed in court). She has raised two daughters and lived to tell about it. Rachel lives in northern Virginia with a spoiled pet Yorkie who terrorises her daily by climing on top of her computer and pelting her with stuffed animals while she writes. And, yes, Rachel considers herself a total Dork.
