Reviews-
xxpish - Georgia Khatchadorian is starting sixth grade. Which means a new grade and a new school. But that’s not all that Georgia needs to worry about. Just because her last name is Khatchadorian and her brother is Rafe doesn’t mean that she is like him. But it does to all the kids and teachers of Hill Village Middle School, who don’t say a word to Georgia. Now it’s Georgia’s turn to fix all the mistakes that Rafe did, and prove that not all Khatchadorians are troublemakers like Rafe. A middle school story set in a diary format, Middle School: My Brother Is A Big, Fat Liar is about a girl trying to clear her name of all the crimes her brother committed. Will Georgia make friends, will her band play at the school dance, or will Georgia do things that will make her look more like her brother? Great for readers of Diary Of A Wimpy Kid, this story will catch readers off guard with the shocking secret that is revealed. What I thought about it: Middle School: My Brother Is A Big, Fat Liar was a great book. James Patterson is a wonderful author; I love all of his middle school books. I read the first two books in March, which I bought at the bookfair at my school. I love the front cover of this book-it’s just so colorful! The illustrations were great on the interior, and the plot was wonderful. I really enjoy the relationship between Georgia and Rafe; sometimes the hate each other, and sometimes they are helping each other with something. I also was astounded when the secret was revealed. It brought a surprising realistic twist that you never expected. This series is truly fun to read. They are great for fans of Diary Of A Wimpy Kid, Big Nate, Dork Diaries, etc. It was also nice having a different POV. Rafe is awesome and all-but sometimes it’s good to have a change, even though I enjoyed the first two books better. Overall, great read.

Gr 5-8-Middle-school fiction's most unreliable narrator, Rafe Khatchadorian, better watch his back because his sister, Georgia, has a thing or three to say about his version of life in their household. While she may be as unreliable as her brother, she's equally entertaining. Georgia is about to start middle school and is nervously looking forward to it. She likes school and is a great student. Not that she's bragging, but she actually skipped a grade. If she's a bit miffed about all the chores she does, like regularly making dinner, or about all the attention Rafe gets from their overworked single mother, she doesn't show it. Much. If she thought she could enter middle school and make her own mark, she soon finds out how wrong she is when teacher after teacher screeches, "Rafe Khatchadorian's sister " She also learns that Rafe's nemesis has a little brother and he's gunning for Georgia, as are the three princesses led by Missy. The packaging and formula of this entry in the wildly popular series are what readers have come to expect: a first-person narrative containing many moments of mayhem, misbehavior, and irreverence, heavily and humorously illustrated. Oh, and don't forget the revelation of a big secret near the end. Fans will be pleased, and new readers will easily pick up the vibe. This installment will not sit long on the shelf.-Brenda Kahn, Tenakill Middle School, Closter, NJ
