i feel like these books are getting better as they go on！ sure， they’re not for everyone。 the plot is a bit hard to follow and the art style is a little messy at times， but i think that’s ok。 it’s not supposed to be some big， grand， harry potter story。 it’s just a fun book about magical girls and space drama， and that’s just fine！

The plot twist was amazing it got me a bit confused but amazing， if there is I hope for another oneAmazing I love where the part where it was all a dream then it was another dream I love it

Adeleine ，

Disappointing I was really expecting more from this book。 The plot twists are confusing and it is pretty difficult to understand。

I read the first two books in this series so I know what happened previously and yet I still felt like this book started in the middle of a story。 I was a bit confused for a while。 I didn’t like the way Dani’s mom acted in this one。 It was weird and mean。 I’m a bit confused by the ending。 Was it all a dream？ A new reality？ Clearly we are let with a lot of questions so I really hope there will be a fourth book。 Overall I enjoyed the story， and I love the art。

I just read this book last night。 I read it in ONE HOUR。 I like to call this binge-reading， like binge-watching， but for books。 I only binge-read books that are amazing， and this book was beyond amazing。 After reading a page， I swear I always caught myself saying something like， "whoa，" or "no way，" or "whaaaat？！" because I was so shocked by the plot twists！ One of the things I love about this series is that it's fantasy， there's a lot of girl power but also middle-grade drama。 It's really hard I just read this book last night。 I read it in ONE HOUR。 I like to call this binge-reading， like binge-watching， but for books。 I only binge-read books that are amazing， and this book was beyond amazing。 After reading a page， I swear I always caught myself saying something like， "whoa，" or "no way，" or "whaaaat？！" because I was so shocked by the plot twists！ One of the things I love about this series is that it's fantasy， there's a lot of girl power but also middle-grade drama。 It's really hard to find a good magic series that also includes that middle-grade friend drama element。 I'm very picky about many things， including books， but this series is， in my opinion， pitch-perfect。 I would not change a thing about it。 However， this book in particular made me very， VERY upset！！ I cannot stop thinking about the crazy ending！ I swear， if Kristen Gudsnuk doesn't make a fourth book and this is how it all ends。。。 UGH！ It's like the Max Crumbly books （which， BTW， are also great， for girls and boys！）。 Those books literally always end with cliff-hangers。 I hate cliff-hangers！ However， it is a pretty smart move on the author's part。 It leaves fans wanting more。 I don't want to spoil anything about the way it ended if you haven't read this book yet， but let's just say it was crazy！ It made me so sad and mad！ Dany has been through so much crazy magic stuff and now。。。 Well， what happened just is not fair。 The quote， "It's like， a paper cut HURTS， but if you break your arm， you don't really feel the paper cut anymore，" made me just SO sad。 I feel too many feelings at once！ Anyway， like I said， I'll try not to give spoilers， so I will leave it at this: This book is amazing， for middle-graders and people of older and younger ages （depending on their taste in books， that is） and I'll bet you wouldn't see all the incredibly zany plot twists coming from a mile away！ 1000% recommended！ :） 。。。more

Possibly the best entry in the series yet， Kristen pushes Making Friends into bold， new directions。 Not fully satisfied at it being a humorous， pleasant and fanciful middle grade exploration of awkwardness， foolishness and loneliness， Making Friends （3）: Third Time's A Charm starts to unravel the world around Dany and Madison， pulling back the curtain at the way the world really works， revealing them （and in a sense， us all） as minor characters ignorant of a much larger game we're unwittingly pl Possibly the best entry in the series yet， Kristen pushes Making Friends into bold， new directions。 Not fully satisfied at it being a humorous， pleasant and fanciful middle grade exploration of awkwardness， foolishness and loneliness， Making Friends （3）: Third Time's A Charm starts to unravel the world around Dany and Madison， pulling back the curtain at the way the world really works， revealing them （and in a sense， us all） as minor characters ignorant of a much larger game we're unwittingly playing。 Surely the Goodreads reviewers who wanted more back story on the mysterious magical elements at play will be more than satisfied at where the story goes （is going？）It's a risky move， and the book is full of risks， whether it's the incalculable amount of unbelievably absurd background gags， almost unforgivable character flaws revealing themselves， or an ending so distressing that it just may ruin some poor child's summer。 The final lines of dialogue will chill readers of all ages， they haunted me for hours after reading。 Making Friends 3 is complex， cleverly meta （both defiantly and self-critically）， and still never sacrifices the crucial consistent ingredient: how do you make people like you when you can barely convince yourself you like you？On the visual level， Gudsnuk's color palette is as eye-pleasing as ever， and her mastery of ultra-specific （and laugh out loud funny） facial expressions and character acting is fairly unmatched in this genre。 The book often feels wildly animated even though they are still drawings。 Even an early panel of Dany asleep is full of life and movement， her mouth cartoonishly open （snoring？） and her eyes scrunched in an angry， troubled expression。 Kristen seems to be unable to draw a page without the goal of making herself laugh， or surprised。In short， everything gels。 Book 1 was Kristen exploring a new genre for herself， possibly attempting to fit into the Scholastic mold。 Book 2 was the hyperactive farce where all the toys are played with and left a mess on the floor， and Book 3 is now the sophisticated， complicated， dark underbelly of it all， and one of Kristen's most personal and best-realized works。 What will be in store for Book 4？ 。。。more
