I am going to write about two interesting stories I read. I will compare and contrast “Dork Diaries Tales from a Not-So-Talented Pop Star,” by Rachel Renee Russell and “Dork Diaries Tales from a Not-So-Fabulous Life,” by Rachel Renee Russell.

There are some similarities in these two stories. Both stories are amazing stories and both are secret. Both stories are about a teenage girl who writes in a diary.

Although both stories have a lot of similarities, there are specific differences. In “Tales from a Not-So-Talented Pop Star,” it’s about a girl who tries to be in a band but there is a little incident but she works it out. And Tales from a Not-So-Fabulous Life,” is about a girl who draws tattoos really well so she trades two books for a tattoo. In “Tales from a Not-So-Talented Pop Star,” she is trying to find her talent. In “Tales from a Not-So-Fabulous Life,” she is trying to fit in.

In conclusion, both stories were very exciting to read. I enjoyed the awesome activities and the characters. M y favorite was “Tales from a Not-So-Fabulous Life,” because I love how it is different then all other books.
