Thoughts: This book is better than amazing. When I read book one in the series, I thought that nothing could be more funny. But when I finished reading book two, I was eating my words. Now, on book three, I'm eating my words again. I loved how Jerry Mahoney is able to write characters who keep learning that you shouldn't destroy a story - yet they keep doing it. I also loved the relationship between Maddie and Holden, because one second they can be attacking each other in an argument, and the next wishing each other good night and tucking each other in bed. Overall, I loved this times infinity. This was a HILARIOUS, better than amazing book.
