okay yeah we're doing another ranking but this time I'm gonna actually like
put a lot of time into it I don't even remember what I said in the last video I
was kind of just rushing through it I don't even think I read like three of
the books but I've read them all now I reread them and I'm gonna be actually
ranking them at how I actually rank him same as last time
I'm not included in this book this book and especially dutchbok almost forgot
I'm not gonna be including the meltdown as well all right I'll do the meltdown
okay so a number uh how many books are there now okay so a number thirteen
Double Down this one is the worst I don't know where I put this last time
but after reading it it's not good at all it's one of the newer ones too so
it's kind of surprising that it's like bad and I usually don't hate that many
books in this series but this one is just not that good Jeff Kenny I know he
was sitting there just trying to give an idea there's like a big thing about
witches in this one like a witch prop or something
and they try to film a movie it's all over the place it really has no like
theme at all it should be doubled down as the worst one this is so stupid
okay
come back again and I'll think of something else I'm getting hard luck is
the next one on the list hard luck is really weird it has a lot
to do with this magic 8-ball so because of that let's ask the magic 8-ball
itself but is things okay magic 8-ball what do you think of the hoard look my
reply is no that's what I'm gonna say to this book let's say no too hard look
that's the main issue with these newer ones you don't really remember too much
about them and most of the time it kind of feels like you're just reading a
repetitive story like you've seen all this before and I think that's the main
problem with hard look at number two we have the third wheel wood number in my
head Greg's trying to get a girlfriend in
this and I mean I guess it's alright but it's really different from how like we
usually see him like he doesn't try to get a date usually likes other girls but
like for this one it's just like he's going out of his way to find a date and
it just feels out of place for Greg's character okay next up old school this
book it's like half and half it has some really good parts but also some really
like just impart mostly this book is just Greg trying to go outdoors by his
mom and he's got to do volunteer work and I guess it starts to like get over
it just to make friends it's a really it's a kind of interesting idea
I like how Jeff Kenny made of a different idea for once it's mostly just
him going around with his these buddies and he's like doing stuff some aspects
of it's really good but other it's the other parts of it is just very much the
same and that's why I put it lower now we got the ugly truth personally to me
this is the last of the classic 5 I think the first 5 I would to get books
are the classics and then after that they're all over the new
but I think out of the five is only to do that I really like the bad ones in
the five but mostly it's just him in Rodricks not Roderick what's his name
rally him and rallies a relationship how their limey not to their game their
friendship and how it's not really going as good and I guess Greg's growing up in
this one this is the one I always forget the most because I read it and I just
automatically forget it like as many times as I read this one I never
remember anything from it the ugly truth of that is lower down on the list sorry
I had the last straw with this book because I'm putting it at this part of
the list what number am I on this is the only other bad one I think out of the
classic five it's not bad bad but it's very average I like how they have the
dad mostly involved cuz all the other books the dads I'm pushover they just
push them to the side every single opening he's at the end when they have
though the characters line up in the front they just push him to the back
with his sad depressed face next up we got the getaway this is one of the newer
ones and personally I liked it I thought they copied a lot from long haul but
it's still fine I like how they go to the hotel but then
they do different stuff like each part of the vacation gets messed up which you
can say is that we've seen it before but I think they do it differently with this
one because they really show you the family like the family struggles cuz
this time they're split but in long haul they were all together so it's kind of
like that part's different but whoa I think I said it was like a copy and that
was exciting to read it alright I did a book this one's kind of like the sink
thing is a long haul and I'm not talking about the movie I did read it now and I
liked it cabin fever you have to see like Greg
try to find stuff to do while he what kidding can't go outside
so mostly he tries to play video games but then the power goes out and stuff
like that so it's cool just to see like they have to work together like the mom
him and the brothers and the dad and the dare let's remember that it's just cool
to see them have to do stuff without electricity so ok the meltdown this one
people are saying is the best in the series I really don't agree with that I
don't think it was the best series like Jeff carnage like Oh like he was the
next Albertina or wait what people were acting like it was the runner
to the kill a mockingbirds like it wasn't that good boy
I did enjoy it in this one they talked about how it the neighbourhoods are
split and they have like different things and they hate each other whatever
and then they get in took a snowball fight and stuff I liked it
I thought I was one of the better ones but it wasn't the best book in my
opinion is the fact so next up long haul no not the movie just thinking about the
movie makes me sick died would be kid the long haul the book emphasized book
is not that bad I liked the road trip part of it and I think there's a lot of
interesting things that happen in this like the pig and stuff like that
so they were changing it up I like how the family is together in this book and
they're all like have a main part like usually a mom and dad are kind of to the
side now they all have a main part in this I think it's definitely one of the
more relatable ones in the series like if you're actually going to read this
you can relate to this one more than the other ones the movie though when you
give squeeze you get the middle finger that say fuck you number 3 or 5 or what
it's the first book this one is just a classic book I first saw the movies and
then I got into the books and this helped me really get into it because it
was so good the characters are all there I mean what more can you ask for it's a
great book really like when you read it you realize how much the movie follows
and I really like that comparison but I think it has the most characters in it
like the most different scenes and stuff like that you really could show like
Greg's middle school experience where the other ones focus is on like one
event or one character this one's everything so it's okay number two is
Roderick rules now sometimes I actually think this is
my favorite these last two are really good
mostly because projects my favorite character and you get to see the most of
him in this book and I really like that about Rajic rules the movie as well is
also fantastic but it really it shows the brother-brother relationship and how
they have to like you know get along I like this one
alright number one is actually this Freddy Krueger head that a funny joke oh
boy number ones Dog Days I mean what more can I say Dog Days is my favorite I
love this one I love the movie the booked everything the summer feeling
just makes this book great to me I love how does everything in this book
it shows the relationship between rally and Greg and they really get along in
this and it's mostly the summer aspect of which is what I like about this the
most
