I liked this book but I thought it was a bit different. It was nice to see Melody thrive and make real friends. She broke out of her shell and I was happy to see this happen. But the charm from the first book was missing and I was confused at some of the writing choices. The author tried to use slang but it wasn’t executed well and it dragged the pace at times. The messages in this were still of course great. I have no complaints there. I liked the new characters but it was hard to differentiate them at times. I really enjoyed Athena, she was great. Seeing Melody go through all these new experiences for the first time was so much fun. She was always so unsure at first but then it quickly became a new favorite activity. I don’t know if I would readily recommend this book because I have very conflicting feelings about it. I believe this book will get a solid 7/10. The missing 3 points were because of some weird slang. Like why is Penny saying she wants 'nilla ice cream, not vanilla ice cream. I thought it was a bit unnatural for babies to do that.
Overall, I enjoyed this book!
