The sixth volume starts with a bang: a huge birthday party featuring surprise guests and a special song from Aunt Tanner It all seems too good to be true, until it turns out . . . it is. Suddenly, Amelia's friends are fighting all the time. She gets the worst report card of her life. And when she finally musters the guts to tell a certain boy how she feels about him, she brutally learns why it's called a "crush." Aunt Tanner would know just what to do--if she were around. But with her new album and maybe a new boyfriend, she doesn't seem to have time for Amelia anymore.
