review 1: I really enjoyed this book and it is a great read for kids who are moving up from Diary of a Wimpy Kid series. I would have given it five stars but I found an issue with all the movie references and that they didn't appear to be movies the intended audience would be familiar with. They were movies I was familiar with, but I don't know that teens would know movies like Scarface or Rocky. Otherwise it was a great entertaining book.
review 2: Great afternoon read that appeals to both boys and girls. Not a true graphic novel, more of a Diary of A Wimpy Kid with real art, this story chronicles the year in the life of a teen who hates being fourteen. Any child would be able to relate to the feeling of isolation, frustration, irritation, and bewilderment that Lar
... morekin communicates in his personal blog with humor and a deft eye to middle school life. The authentic voice and ringing endorsement by comic artists Richard Thompson (Cul de Sac) and Stephan Pastis (Pearls Before Swine), should be enough to make people realize this is a book that teens will read and enjoy. There is even a series of book club questions in the back. If you don't think this book is serious think again, it actually gives the reader a lot to consider and ponder in this coming of age story. less

an attempt at wimpy kid that misses the mark by not being funny AT ALL.
