Our Review

When Greg Heffley's town decides to unplug and go electronics-free, this modern-day kid faces his biggest challenge yet in a world suddenly devoid of digital conveniences. The story cleverly explores the generational gap through Greg's signature blend of anxiety and hilarious scheming as he navigates a life without screens. Kinney masterfully captures the universal dread of being forced into simpler times, making readers wonder if they'd survive such a digital detox themselves.

The tension between nostalgic ideals and contemporary reality provides fresh comedic ground for the series, with Greg's struggles feeling particularly relevant in our tech-saturated world. Longtime fans will appreciate how the "old school" premise reinvigorates the familiar formula while staying true to the series' classic humor and relatable middle school dilemmas. This installment delivers exactly what readers crave—another dose of Greg's disastrous attempts to cope with the unreasonable demands of the adult world.
