This book is absolutely amazing… It is about a boy named Greg trying to get through the life of a teenage boy. Rowley finds a girlfriend… but does the girl really like Rowley? Will he still be able to keep his friendship with Greg? I give it a 5-star rating!!

I really enjoyed reading this funny novel. Once again, Jeff Kinney has plotted a twist within the storyboard. Broken friendship. Drama. No-more friends?.Alone.Nobody. Like all the books, there is always a happy ending, but if you want to solve the mystery of what happened, I urge you to purchase this book!
