Review by Noa

When Ellie’s best friend’s cousin, Charlie, announces her Bat Mitzvah is off because the venue is closed, Ellie jumps into action! Determined to save the day, she takes on the challenge of becoming Charlie's party planner. But juggling a Bat Mitzvah, middle school friend drama, grades, and a party-planning job proves to be a lot. I loved how enthusiastic she was! This book is fantastic, and I would recommend it!

This is such a good book highly recommend. I love it because it has problems related to middle school life, and there are challenges along the way, but why we really like the most about it is the main characters attitude and how she faces problems with her friends and family. Even though this book can tell a busy life of how a family can own a restaurant. I love how this family works together.😀😀😀
