I personally haven't read this book, or the previous ones, but my 12 yo daughter loved the book Twelve. I found the book and read the back cover and thought it sounded really cute. She was very excited when I surprised her with Thirteen.
The recommended age group was 8 to 12 or so. I bought this book for an 11 year old niece for her birthday. Before I gave it to her, I breezed through it and happened upon a page where the main character was thinking about her parents having sex. Someone else in the book had created some art project with something, I can't remember what it was. And her thoughts were that this creation looked like a penis.
My niece's mother red-lighted the book, and I certainly would never allow my 8 year old daughter to read it either. I'm disappointed and nervous. I had already bought the child two other books by this author. What on earth have I exposed her to?
