Reception

The series has shown to be popular with young teens and librarians alike. [http://kids.denverlibrary.org/bookbuzz/results.cfm?genre=Self-Esteem] [ [http://www.goodreads.com/book/show/2106313.Cheat_Sheet Goodreads review] ] Rather than a simple storyline, the books look to engage the reader with self-quizzes, and lets them rate themselves in the "crazy, mixed up jungle called middle school".
