The format of this book is great for reluctant readers. It looks and feels like a novel from the outside, but has a lot of cartoons, jokes, and things like that breaking up the text. Aside from the format, there are many rude, crude, and funny antics from a middle school boy telling about his life.

Blatant rip off of Diary of a Wimpy Kid/not funny. Everybody knows that Greg in DOAWK is a loser and a bad person. Nate is a jerk and an idiot, but he's supposed to be cool. Also the drawings are not even cute.

Best Wimpy Kid readalike I've read. My prediction is that this could even be more popular than the Wimpy Kid books.

OK, this book isn't exactly riviting literature. And I'll admit that it's a tad predictable. But for what it is, it is very well done (thus the four stars). This book is a very quick read and a fun bit of fluff. Will appeal to Diary of a Wimpy Kid fans.

The daily comic strip that this book is based on is also worth checking out.

This book is hilarious! I think that my favorite part has to be the end😊. I love how nate and his friends act throughout the book, and for someone nates age (me) this is a SWEET book.☺.
