Is this a good read?

Aha...see what I did there? Goodreads? No? Okay.

I usually like Andrew Clements, but I recently decided to change my to-read shelf to be organized by highest rating, and this book was last! I have exactly 100 to-read books, so naturally I'd be curious as to what makes a book LAST out of 100. PLEASE no spoilers if you're going to answer me, because if someone says "DON'T READ FURTHER BECAUSE OF SPOILERS!", I am SOOOO tempted to read further. Thanks!

Yes, definitely. Before I read this I liked a School Story the best of Andrew Clements books, and this one is a close second. (third would have to go to Troublemaker) It was the first book since A School Story that made me want to cry, so if you like a School Story or you like books that make you cry, this is a must-read.
haha I like what you did there. . .
