Rafe Khatchadorian is getting the Hollywood treatment in a film version of Middle School: The Worst Years of My Life starring Griffin Gluck, Lauren Graham, Rob Riggle and Thomas Barbusca.

Rafe Khatchadorian has enough problems at home without throwing his first year of middle school into the mix. Luckily, he’s got an ace plan for the best year ever, if he can pull it off. With his best friend Leonardo the Silent awarding him points, Rafe tries to break every rule in his school’s oppressive Code of Conduct. Chewing gum in class – 5,000 points! Running in the hallway – 10,000 points! Pulling the fire alarm – 50,000 points! But when Rafe’s game starts to catch up with him, he’ll have to decide if winning is all that matters, or if he’s finally ready to face the rules, bullies, and truths he’s been avoiding.

It is a fiction book of a boy named Rafe Khatchadorian who is playing a game to break all the rules in school. He has 3 lives and each broken rule has a specific number of points. I thought it was a great and interesting book full of action packed plots. I would recommend for teenagers because it talks about a boy who is nearly 13 years of age.

I recommend this book to middle schoolers mostly but everyone can read it. My favourite character is Leonardo The Silent.I liked this book cause it was funny. I think that Bear is a bit too grumpy.

This book was extremely intriguing as there was this boy called Rafe Katchadorian and he attempted to break all the rules in school with his brother who had passed away but he imagined him by his side. Rafe kept taking breaks and then carries on attempting to break more rules and then gets expelled from the school for a while the joins back I recommend this book for all ages above 8. My favourite character is Rafe and it interested me so much for this book kept me on the hook since it was consistently compelling and fascinating.

I thought this book was full of comedy and as a diary it really describes how life can be at home compared to at school. The person I liked best was Rafe not only because he was the main character but also because of all the detentions he had, how made the police come over twice and how he also broke every rule in the code of conduct. I would recommend this book to people who enjoy diaries and cliffhangers.

I believe that thisbook isthebest because it is hilarious. It is about a boy called rafe, K and Leo. He has become a rule breaker and tries to break all the rules in HVMS code of conduct. His mother loves a man called Carl( Bear to rafe and leo). Rafes artistic skills might help him along the way. To sum it up this book is my favourite and possibly the best in the world
