Kids say that this installment of the series has become increasingly unrealistic, depicting a melodramatic main character who is ungrateful despite her many privileges, such as achieving fame from a school talent show. Many find the themes problematic, with a strong focus on popularity, drama, and negative portrayals of mental health, which detracts from the supposed charm and relatability of the earlier books in the series.
