Mackenzie Blue

Mackenzie Blue has a crush! But how can she get Landon-the cutest boy in school-to notice her? The class's new rock-and-roll musical is her chance. Reasons why our musical is going to be amazing: I could be the star! Landon could be my co-star... which means we'll hang out together. Working on the sets, props, music, script, and costumes will be tons of fun. There's so much to do, I'd better get started! Between her crush, the musical, and her friends-not to mention school work-Zee is torn in a thousand different directions. With all the real-life drama going on, will she lose sight of what's really important?

As a fashionista and future rock star, California girl Mackenzie "Zee" Blue's life is busy. Zee keeps in touch with all her friends with texts, IMs, and emails-and now, Bluetopia, the coolest social networking site ever! In Mixed Messages, fourth in the illustrated middle-grade Mackenzie Blue series, Zee and her friends from Brookdale Academy launch Bluetopia, a fab social media site-which is perfect, because Zee's band, The Beans, is about to have its biggest show ever. Everyone is talking about it on Bluetopia. At least it would be perfect if a glitch in the Bluetopia system didn't threaten to ruin the show-and Zee's life! Tween fans of the Dork Diaries and Diary of a Wimpy Kid series will love the Mackenzie Blue books.

Mackenzie Blue is a star! Or she will be . . . as soon as she gets the part of an aspiring singer on a new TV pilot! But juggling auditions and the rest of her life turns out to be harder than Zee thought. Zee's friends are helping her hold everything together. But Zee doesn't like having to bail on plans-and her friends-to run to another audition. Is being a star worth it? Fans of the Dork Diaries will snap up the fifth book in this tween illustrated series about a twelve-year-old girl trying to survive middle school.
