It also spawned a bunch of successful sequels, too.
MIDDLE SCHOOL THE WORST DAYS OF MY LIFE MOVIE MOVIE
It was a New York Times bestseller and got turned into a movie in 2016. To the surprise of basically nobody-including the mega-successful James Patterson- Middle School: The Worst Years of My Life was a smash hit. So he challenges what he can: the rulebook.īy setting out to break every. He can't change out his step-dad for a newer (or friendlier) model, he can't make his crush love him, he can't trounce the bully, and he can't invent a time machine that will take him straight to his sophomore year of high school.
Oh-and he has a step-father-to-be that makes the stepparents represented in Cinderella and Snow White look like doting mamas.Īnd to top it off: there's a twenty-six-yeah, that's two-six-page rulebook that he has to follow at school. The teachers are demanding that he reach his potential. The class bully wants to smash him into hamburger meat. The pretty girl he's got the hots for thinks of him as a sweet lil' clown. Rafe has zero friends (imaginary ones don't count). The years between fifth and ninth grade are fun for pretty much zero percent of the population.Īnd if you're named Rafe Khatchadorian, they're beyond terrible. In Middle School: The Worst Years of My Life he lays it all out there: middle school is the pits. Or early childhood? The perks include: few responsibilities, endless pillow forts, naps (!), and getting bedtime stories read to you.īut people also hold up every other age group as The Best: high school is all excitement and prom nights, your twenties are for adventure and partying, you thirties are about realizing who you are, and your later adult years are a parade of barbeques, polo shirts, and RV camping.īut you'll realize that no one-and we mean no one-waxes poetic about middle school.Įspecially not James Patterson. Old age: hey, who doesn't like playing shuffleboard, being retired, and getting to do basically anything you want (including eating dinner at five p.m.)? People spill a lot of ink talking about the best years of your life.
