Up until now, middle school hasn’t exactly been a joyride for Greg Heffley. So when the town threatens to close the crumbling building, he’s not too broken up about it.

But when Greg realizes this means he’s going to be sent to a different school than his best friend, Rowley Jefferson, he changes his tune. Can Greg and his classmates save their school before it’s shuttered for good? Or is this the start of a whole new chapter for Greg?

Very fun

Kinney is great at setting up Chekhov's Guns and foreshadowing, but I feel like the events in this book were a bit of a stretch, as in a bit too unbelievable for the suspension of disbelief. The pacing especially around the end was a bit too rushed in my opinion. I do really love the parts in the beginning in which the school takes in a ton of sponsorships and the books in the library getting censored, and those were some of the more realistic parts of the book. So yeah, not the best, but still pretty good!!
