I have yet to derive the first laugh from this uncreative, derivative nonsense.

I finally went to Barnes and Noble and bought it for $14.99. (It wouldn't let me choose zero stars to rate it, so that's the only reason I chose 1 star.) The merchant cancelled the order twice.

The author misses several opportunities to weave together disparate events into a meaningful plot. The writing is boring, the characters are barely even one-dimensional, and the humor is obviously written by someone who is not current in middle school dynamics. <br /> <br />This one is one to let remain on the library shelf. <br /> <br /> After a fabulous experience with the graphic novel American Born Chinese, our book club of 6th grade girls and their moms was sorely disappointed in Diary of a Wimpy Kid.
