Oh my GOSH this book is TERRIFIC! I only met Miranda a few weeks ago, but ever since I go on youtube at least every couple days, because she's ALWAYS good for laughs and she makes my day! This book is almost as good! It's longer than I thought it would be, which is good! I didn't read straight thru it, but read different portions and I was totally hooping and hollering; this stuff is SO funny, just like the videos! I think ALL Mirfanduhs will LOVE this book! I thought it was kind of expensive, but since I have gotten it, I don't feel that way anymore; it was worth every penny! Now if I'm ever down, I can just grab this book and get cheered up! I would not take it to work though. From the loud way I was screeching and laughing at the book, I think they would look at me really weird at work! I would have to do like Miranda says in the book. Change the screen really quick to porn, because it's easier to explain!I don't know as I would recommend this book for people who do not watch Miranda. BUT! If you don't watch her, you should check out a couple videos of hers every day for a week or so, and see if she grows on you like she did on me. (The first two times I didn't think she was funny, but after that I started wanting to see some of her videos every day!) Once you watch her for a little while, if you like her, then you could order the book and really appreciate it.Colleen, you rock, chick!

Great little book

My daughter really wanted this book. She loves YouTube and watches this character all the time so I was familiar with her before buying the book.It's funny. Maybe not exactly "my" idea of funny but my daughter loved it and read it cover to cover the first day and has picked it back up every night to read again. Even I laughed a few times at the characters over the top anticsI read some of the one star reviews and read where some people said this book is too old for their child. Only you can decide what your child can and cannot watch or read. I'm extremely open with my child. Everything she asks me , I answer. I had no problem with ANYTHING in the book. It's obviously satire, which my child is smart enough to get. I saw it mention nothing that my child doesn't know about or I'd feel uncomfortable with her reading about.It's funny and silly and my little girl likes it. She's reading which is great. There is some interactive components in the book which is awesome. You can also access special videos by scanning a code with your phone to open it up. That was cool I thought.All in all, it was a good book that my eleven year old little girl loved.

Got this for my 14-year-old brother who is very into YouTube celebrities, especially Miranda. He's not a fan of reading novels, but since this book is more of a scrapbook with only 20 or so words on a dense page, it is easy to flip through and laugh at. We are not finicky about a 14 year old boy reading about puberty or other similar topics, given that he has unfettered access to the internet anyway, but for a younger fan whose parents already monitor online activities or perhaps do not have a sense of humor about these things, I would recommend those parents read the book in its entirety before giving it to their child. This book is really only for people who are already fans of Miranda and understand her humor and persona, so it is pretty much a surefire good gift for those fans and may be met with bewilderment by anyone else. Mirfandas, get your selp helfed!

I read all the negative reviews AFTER I got the book. I agree with a few things; Miranda's videos are much better, but if you're a big Mirfanda you'll have fun with the book. As for the complaints about spelnig errreors etc. Really? The book patterned after Miranda's unique take on her own language, obviously some folks are not familiar with Miranda sings and therefor should not shoot her down for this.As for the book being inappropriate? I agree fully there are a few sections/pages that should have been omitted entirely considering the target audience is pre-teens, specifically the 4 pages on puberty which begin on page-60 (they come with a warning, but it's hard to take seriously because nothing is serious in this book).This crass stuff should have been left out, as should the page on wiping (page-155). Pages 60 thru 63 deal with porn as only Miranda can, and I agree it is not a good fit for those who have kids too young or at a level to deal with this topic, although it's handled in true Miranda style. If the age and level of awareness are right, it is very funny.These valid points stole the 5th star.You will enjoy the rest of it if you are a true Mirfanda. I recommend skimming it first!10/23/15 Update: Finally got around to giving my daughter this book (note, she's 14 1/2). She does a very very good impression of Miranda Sings, she's reading the book in her Miranda Sings voice and I am rolling on the floor! Just a hint if you really want to ramp up the fun.

This review IS a teensy bit biased, as I am a Mirfanda. I was actually quite surprised when I found out Miranda was going to come out with a book. I don't regret buying this book at all, and this book actually made me laugh out loud (quite rare when it comes to books). Let me just say if you're going to get this book, get the hardcopy. Reading it on Kindle was a little hard, as this book was not supported on the actual Kindle device it self. This didn't stop me from reading the book, and I ended up getting the app on my phone and iPad. The zoom function is not that easy to use, and honestly, quite annoying, as Miranda's uncle does write a few notes in the book, and his writing is PRETTY SMALL! But it's AMAZEBALLS AND YOU SHOULD DEFINITELY READ IT!!!
