Review: Yes, I liked it. Probably the best of the three is the story of the Monkey King. It is a real story and is part of the famous story?€?Journey to the West?€? that is one of the Four Great Classical Novels of Chinese literature (really five but?€?). However, the version in the book is different from the original usually the events being non-sequential. Also some of the events were removed entirely or changed for a younger audience such as when the Monkey King was stopped by Tze-Yo-Tzuh, in Journey to the West he was stopped by Gautama Buddha. All the stories explain quite a lot and an unexpected twist brings them together. This book is worth reading.

Review: It was a really great book! I enjoyed it. It was really cool how each mini story at the beginning was linked together at the end.

The story is both serious and funny because it has similarities to what happens in real life and how it happens from Tyler's point of view. Tyler usually finds himself being in trouble and then doing something that causes more trouble. The book also has lots of swearing so it is NOT recommended for children. Overall, I find that the book explains a lot about the life of a teenager and is worth reading.

Review: omg i loved it! I thought Tyler was soo cool I love him!! I hate Bethany...and Chip. They were annoying. And I didn't like Hannah. She was just annoying, like every other freshman. Yoda was cute...i guess. But yeah, i like what happens and how Tyler stands up for himself in front of his dad. I was, like, cheering him on!! But..I don't get what the dad did. Like, they kept saying that the dad did something bad at his work and at the end Tyler asks if he would get in trouble for it. But, I don't know what he did..... But it was a good book! :D
