From Publishers Weekly
The cuteness doesn't stop with the Mew Mew gang, a team of girl heroes who have each been injected with animal genes and endowed with supernatural powers. Their mission is to fight aliens who use animals to attack Earth. A la Mode continues the popular series Tokyo Mew Mew, which inspired the equally admired cartoon. This story introduces a new member, Berry Shirayuki, whose French grandfather explains the title. She's just getting used to her new school when she is mistakenly injected with the genes of an Amami black rabbit and an Andes mountain cat. Suddenly she finds herself fighting dragons and the evil Saint Rose Crusaders, who like to dine on bunny blood. Berry has to adjust to her new Mew Mew powers: super hearing, the ability to leap much higher than expected and a strange desire to snack on carrots. Ikumi knows how to mix action sequences, romantic interludes and schoolgirl anxieties to maximum effect. Darker elements combine with sugary ones for a fun, energetic and ultimately irresistible read. The adorable girls are well-drawn by Yoshida, who adds an appendix of commentary on the process of manga creation. (July)

From School Library Journal
Grade 5-8–Berry Shirayuki, 12, wakes up overjoyed to be starting junior high at a school she has chosen for its superior uniform design. She knows that something amazing will happen to her, and it sure does. First, her boy-next-door friend sneaks into her room to tease her for leaving him behind at the drab local institution. Then, she realizes that her new school is a bastion of ultra-rich preppies. But it is also the headquarters of the Mew Mews, four girls with animal powers who shout girly battle cries and save the world. One of the omnipresent tall, rail-thin boys injects Berry with an experimental serum that turns her into the fifth Mew Mew. A group of blood-drinking fellow students conspires to eliminate her, and she continues to worship from afar each lanky, long-haired boy who periodically speaks to her. The ominous secret group is pushed aside for the school scenes, centered on Berry being cute, eating cake, or learning about her powers. If your patrons love manga, get this title to balance the superhero yarns crowding your shelves.–John Leighton, Brooklyn Public Library, NY

I love it but not as much as i loved tokyo mew mew.is it woth buying,to me yes.

save your money!!!!!
this book is .....i can't think of a word beside terrible, really really bad!!! ok, i liked tokyo mew mew, like other fans when i heard that there was tokyo mew mew a la mode coming out, i was happy! but..wow save your money, ..... i hated the new character, berry was so annoying!(like my spelling)

Tokyo Mew Mew A La Mode
Tokyo Mew Mew A La Mode is a good book. But I was very disapointed when I finished this series cause it wasn't as good as Tokyo Mew Mew. There were no aliens, no Kish.Also, it seemed liked Mint, Lettuce, Pudding, Ichigo, and Zakuro were not important characters of the book. There were a lot of things missing in the Tokyo Mew Mew A La Mode series that I liked in Tokyo Mew Mew.
