Hard Luck: Diary of a Wimpy Kid | Jeff Kinney
Jeff Kinney's 8th book of this hilarious and highly successful series, and Greg Heffley and his friends now have a whole new set of adventures. Greg Heffley's on a losing streak. His best friend, Rowley Jefferson, has ditched him, and finding new friends in middle school is proving to be a tough task. To change his fortunes, Greg decides to take a leap of faith and turn his decisions over to chance. Will a roll of the dice turn things around, or is Greg's life destined to be just another hard-luck story?

Lil B went on nap strike, so we started sending him to school with books. Apparently it‘s been a hit.

I'm not so sure Mom's qualified to give friendships advice anyway, because guy friendships are TOTALLY different from girl friendships

Funny book written from the perspective of a young boy writing in his diary about his everyday. would be interested to read the rest of the series.

Graphica. I like the format of this book series. The author writes as a kid writing in his diary about his everyday life. So far is an easy yet interesting read. The illustrations help visualize the happenings in the story and also add a little be of detail every now and again. Would be interested to read the rest of the series.

4✨ Greg and Rowley are not friends because of a girl. In this book Greg focuses on family and activities to entertain himself. The magic 8 balls in the cover display a friend throughout this story. These books are always a breath of fresh air when I‘m struggling to read. Read for #roaringwolf (Just for funsies) “Warp Speed”-read in one day. Also my #bookspinbingo for September. 😊

I like when Greg breaks his eight ball and when he finds it, he finds the ring worth millions of dollars. But he knows if he reveals it, his family will go into a big argument, so he keeps it hidden. I think this is the correct choice.

Bedtime reading. This is my first in the series, and I am loving it! ?

Greg Heffley, the owner says - Let me get something straight: this is a JOURNAL, not a diary. This was mom's idea, not mine. But if she thinks I'm going to write down my "feelings" in here or whatever, she's crazy. Just don't expect me to be all "Dear Diary" this and "Dear Diary" that. ?

Though I enjoyed the format and thought some of the humor was great, I was bummed that Greg (the "wimpy kid") was actually kind of mean! He is unwilling to admit when he is wrong and is a jerk to his best friend, and I wasn't expecting that from the title. I'm curious to see if this changes throughout the series.

The slump is so real right now. I'm reading this on my lunch break because I'm working in Youth Services today and j grabbed it and wanted to see why kids love it so much!

Reviewsbylola My stepdaughter loved this series when she was younger! 8y
[DELETED] 1409720085 I have to say that I laughed out loud a few times when I read this several years ago. "I'm sorry women." 8y
MLVReads @emilydecato hahaha yes! @Reviewsbylola it is rare that we have a single copy of any of the books from the series so I really wanted to check it out! 8y

Ro thinks this scene is funny because grown-up Greg thinks his house is beautiful, and grown-up Rowley thinks the *garden* is beautiful.

The Spanish translation is 'Diario de Greg' 😆 I guess they don't have the word 'wimpy' in Spanish.

jolovestoread Lol! I guess "El Diario del Niño Debilucho" would've sounded too mean. ? cc: @Jhannine 8y

I actually read this entire book after Ro fell asleep last night. So far, it's my favorite "Wimpy Kid" book.

mamaguru Max read them all last year and Jack just started. Today we spent the day at the pool alternately reading (both of them Wimpy Kids) and swimming. I've never read one. 8y
