SOLVED. Children’s diary series about a girl whose mother died. [s]

[Iluvsunshine]

The girl lives with her brother and father and is learning to navigate life without a mother. I read it around 2007.

Iluvsunshine, can you tell us more about her parents (e.g., how her mother died, their jobs)?

What troubles the girl the most about her mother's passing?

What is the story's time period and location (country, region, well-known city, small town)?

[Iluvsunshine]

I think it’s in a small town. It’s a book series so every book had different things going on. I can’t remember anything about the parents but her brother was older than her. I think she was in or around 7/8th grade and she got older throughout the series. She went out with this boy that was her friend. Her name was the series name. But I can’t remember her name.

I found the book ! It’s called the agony of Alice.
