Hi Alisa, Hope you like one of the following 3 books! :) Ashley

I, Lorelei by Yeardley Smith
In letters to her recently deceased cat Mud, eleven-year-old Lorelei chronicles the ups and downs of her sixth-grade year, during which her parents separate, she gets a part in the school play, and she becomes friends with the cutest boy in her grade.

Next to Mexico by Jennifer Nails
Outspoken, impulsive Lylice has skipped fifth grade, but she finds that getting along at Susan B. Anthony Middle School is more difficult than she expected, until she befriends another newcomer to the sixth grade.

Dear George Clooney, Please Marry my Mom by Susin Nielsen
When Violet's television-director father leaves Vancouver to live in L.A. with his new wife, and her mother's relationships seem to be going from bad to worse, Violet decides to help her mother get the perfect man--George Clooney.

Thanks!

Hating Alison Ashley by Robin Klein. It's an Australian title.

Eleven by Lauren Myracle
Girl vs. Superstar by Robin Palmer
Mother Daughter Book Club by Heather Vogel Frederick
Confetti Girl by Diana Lopez
Double Life of Zoe Flynn by Janet Lee Carey

Thanks, I will defiantly look those up.

My 11 year old loved the graphic novel Smile by Raina Telgemeier.

synopsis from amazon.com "When she was in sixth grade, Telgemeier tripped while running and lost her two front teeth. In the years that followed, she went through a torturous series of dental surgeries and repairs, the trauma of which was mirrored by the social struggles she experienced during her adolescence."

I just finished The Mother Daughter Book Club and it ROCKED!

awesome! that one has a few book after it too... look for the rest of the series :)

I have now finished Much Ado About Anne and loved it just as much!

Any more recommendations?

Anyone? :(

I'm a fifth grader who reads 6th grade level also. I love anything by Laurie Halse Anderson, but if you want 6th grade girls, The Kind of Friends We Used to Be is very good, so is anything by that author.

Thanks! :)

Is there any good books just for a 7th/8th grade level? I guess it doesn't have to be about 5/6th graders...

Anything? Mystery is my favorite, but I just need something thats good!

try Red Blazer Girls --Michael Beil

Good recommendation! I already read it... :) Thanks for recommending!

The Hunger Games Trilogy By Suzanne Collins(EPIC books!)

Not all of these are about 6th graders but they are AWESOME! :) Enjoy!

you should read sex and the city!

That is not about middle schoolers -- it's about adult women living in New York doing adult things -- not sure it's appropriate here...

all yall say stuff bla bla bla bla

Sweet Valley Twins are I think 6th grade - probably a bit old fashioned now though!

I am also in 6th grade and I am obsessed with the Hunger Games. READ IT!!!! Have u read all 5 in the Mother Daughter Book Club series? The rest r good 2! Also, I love Wendy Mass. All of her books r awesome. If u r interested in Holocaust books u should read the Boy in the Strpied Pajamas and the Devil's arithmetic. Have u read A Wrinkle in Time? That's another one of my all time favorites.

I almost 4got! The Giver by Lois Lowery was great 2.
