It is, however, a book I would hesitate to give to middle-grade readers. Yes, there’s a lot of humor, but April Grace does criticizes/judges others quite a bit, there’s a lot of sarcasm/sass and sibling bickering (some boarder-lining on just plain hateful from Myra Sue), mentions of cussing, and towards the end, someone is diagnosed with an eating disorder. I could see why some families would pass on this book and series because of these elements. There was a good amount of faith content in it and good lessons, though, by the end, which I really enjoyed seeing.
*BFCG may (Read the review to see) recommend this book by this author. It does not mean I recommend all the books by this author.
