I have all my reread of this series so far, and this book was the same. Even though I am 19 and reading a middle grade book, it was really good and funny. I love Greg and Roderick sm, especially since I've always had a crush on Roderick...but like who hasn't had a crush on him at least once. Idk what else to say tbh, so this review is now over!

Quotes:
- “I didn't really know what to expect from detention but when I waked into the room, the first thought I had was, I don't belong in here with these future criminals.”
- “I'm basically one of the best people I know.”
- “Merit badges are these little patches you get for learning how to do all sorts of manly stuff.”
- “This morning he told everyone that he’s a “big boy” and he’s giving up his pacifier for good. Then he threw his favorite binkie in the trash. Clap clap Clap clap Well, that New Year’s resolution didn’t even last a full minute. suck suck suck The only person in my family who didn’t come up with a resolution is my older brother, Rodrick, and that’s a pity because his list should be about a mile and a half long.”
