The rest of the play is kind of a blur. I can't stop thinking about Artur. Hey, that rhymes!
In Big Nate on a Roll, Mister Perfect joins Nate’s scout group and ruins everything for Nate. The third book in the Big Nate series. What do I think?
I don’t really have much to say about this book.
I will say that Nate is pretty mean to Artur for the whole of the book. He only hates him because Artur has the girl he wants and the life he wants.. not that Nate wants to suck-up to the teachers. Hah.
Speaking of Artur: While he is a major character in the story, he appears way too much in the book. There are so many pages with him and so little pages without Ellen, Marty, Francis, Teddy, hell, I only saw Mrs. Godfrey on 3 pages or something.
Eh, pretty mediocre book if you ask me.
Rating: 3.5/5

Nate is stuck doing a Ben Franklin project and is on the same fleeceball team with his arch enemy Gina Hemphill Toms. Gina is of course a crappy character, but her jerkiness is actually executed perfectly.
While the book is the main focus here, i really enjoyed the benjamin franklin comics drawn by nate in this book. lincoln pierce is able to convey the mind of an eleven year old in just a few drawings and i find that awesome.
Marty is a ridiculously annoying dad in this book, constantly assuming nate and gina are dating because they are partners. in my opinion, that just felt out of place, because marty was just seen as a dumb single dad who cared about his kids and cooked properly. Now he is just a stereotypical dad who assumes his child is dating if they hang out with the opposite gender.
Anyways, with a few flaws, but a great storyline and great art, this was a really good book.

The first non-Wimpy Kid review here. Is it better then the first Wimpy Kid book? No. I actually think they are on the same level.
Nate sums up the mind of an eleven year old boy perfectly - Hates school, loves snacks and comics. We can relate to his character very much and that’s why we like him. And he’s not just relatable, he’s funny. His dialogue is funny. His character is funny. He’s funny.
But what I DONT like is his friend trio. At times all they do is insult each other and treat each other like morons. In fact, at one time, Nate reveals he met Francis while hitting him with a lunchbox. It makes you wonder how they’re even friends.
The adults are a different level. Their selfish clueless behavior is so realistic that it makes you feel like you are Nate and you can understand why he hates them so much.
This is such an epic book and you must read it!!
Rating: 5/5

I don’t have a download of this film or Disney+ anymore, so here is a review based on what I CAN remember from the film.
A Cabin Fever film has been bound to exist since 2013, hyped up over and over, and after ten years, we actually get one. And is it that good? I must say- yes.
All the suburban white yippie moms whining about how Greg doesn’t believe in Santa Claus is a trend that has been going on and on for YEARS and YEARS. Considering Santa isn’t real though, I have no problem with it.
I do have a problem with how Rodrick acts about the whole snowplow incident as if he knows Greg did it, when Rodrick knows nothing in general, if you think about it.
And I also do like how there were a lot of different things from the book and the film. Combining Santa’s Scout and Alfrendo to make Elfrendo was genius on their side. The book and movie actually kinda have different plots, and I actually love it. Asides from being a mega-fan there was actually a reason to see this film.

UGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHH.
This is undeniably undisputedly the WORST Wimpy Kid book ever. I’d rather watch The Long Haul 25 times instead of reading this five times. First of all, these events are so unrealistic it makes me wonder if Jeff Kinney ACTUALLY went to school. Not once have I seen ads anywhere in my classroom, hallways or playground at school. And nowhere at my school I have seen any signs of my principal being a robot. Although, I almost never see him. I wonder what he could be doing in his leisure time.
Secondly, the jokes and gags are delivered terribly. With little to no description of the events, a slow paced events of order, my expectations for this book were not met. Everyone thought the book was going to be like the first one, but it was actually terrible.
AND THE FUDGEDOG SIDE PLOT IS RIDICULOUS. Cities, schools, clashing over some chocolate tofu? Which, by the way, sounds DISGUSTING. I just wonder how Jeff Kinney comes up with this, in a bad way.
AVOID THIS BOOK.
