Our Review

Greg Heffley's latest misadventure finds him trading middle school drama for the chaotic world of garage band rock when he joins his brother Rodrick's struggling group, Löded Diper. This installment delivers the signature blend of handwritten-style journal entries and cartoon illustrations that fans have loved for seventeen books, following Greg as he discovers that musical aspirations come with unpaid gigs, bandmate conflicts, and financial struggles that make cafeteria politics seem simple by comparison.

Kinney continues his remarkable streak of capturing the awkward humor of adolescence, this time exploring sibling dynamics through the lens of creative collaboration and shared ambition. Longtime readers will appreciate seeing Rodrick's band finally take center stage, while new fans will find the universal themes of family tension and chasing dreams equally engaging. The rock band backdrop provides fresh material for Greg's signature social blunders and observational comedy, making this another solid entry that reminds readers why the series remains so enduringly popular.
