Femcel Greg Heffley. This was so different from the show, especially that ending! Omg! I do love a genuinely surprising and upsetting ending though.

2.0

I didn't enjoy this graphic novel. The whole story feels underdeveloped and disjointed, and I forgot entirely that it was following the main character's journal so the author didn't make good use of that idea. It felt like this was just too focused on being edgy and shocking and forgot to do the rest of the story building. There's also a lot of unconsensual kissing in this.

I think I wasn't as disappointed by this as some other people because I didn't watch the Netflix show. 
There were things I liked about it but mostly I think it was too fast paced for me to truly care about the plot or the characters.
