Talk:Diary of a Wimpy Kid: The Meltdown/@comment-43567750-20190829165006

Ok, this is me. I like the book. Sure, it has dabs and the start is goofy and dumb like the starts of the last 5 books, but I love the action and it tells a brilliant story near the end. And it was fresh without the pig after the first 50 pages. It has flaws and it is no book.2 or book.6, but it's fun, unrealistic, at times, but fun. It is a huge improvement from the last one, which was unfunny and was probably the most unrealistic out of all of them. And this one had stupid jokes at the start too, bombarding us with bad, Jerry Seinfield style Ironic Comedy with climate-change jokes. The ending was the highlight and it was clear Kinney ignored trying to be funny. He just told a story, which was a bit ridiculous (where were all the kids coming from; it's like every household had a kid) but it was plausible and relatable, like the first 8 books, it was fresh with no stupid trends (which is why book 9-12 will age so bad) but the ending was a masterpiece, and Kinney should try to write like a middle-school kid like the first 8 books and not a stand-up comedian like the newer ones.
