Diary of a Wimpy Kid by Jeff Kinney

I have read books 1-3 and still have the fourth to read. These are very easy and quick to read which is one reason why I like to read these. Sometimes you just need a quick read and you don't want to take time to read a longer, more in depth book. These are especially fun since they have illustrations drawn throughout the book. It follows the life of Greg, a young middle school age kid with one older and one younger brother. Much like many middle children, Greg fights a lot with his older brother. His younger brother can do no wrong and you see that the parents let him get away with a lot that the older two don't. Each book follows a school year or summer of Greg and his experiences and his perspective on life. He tries so hard to fit in and get through life with little effort. It will be interesting to see what the fourth book has to offer.
