lovegirl30's review against another edition

I went into this book blind on the series, so I was little hesitant at first. I have to say this book was very surprising, I really was unsure I would enjoy it. I found this book was really funny and held my interest for long periods.
Basically, the worst night ever is the story of Wyatt and his friends being pitted against horrible bullies. They are the rich kids of his high school. He tries to survive the shark pool that is high school. This isn't your average "anti-bully story" though. Wyatt uncovers a plot of theirs that could be extremely dangerous.
I have to be honest because I always am on this blog, it wasn't adult funny, it was very much kid funny. Which is totally okay because it is targeted to kids. I did feel that the characters felt more like middle school characters than high school kids.
Wyatt and his friends are pitted against rich bullies who are up to no good, and he uncovers a plot of theirs involving dangerous animals. It wasn't quite as funny as the first, but I loved that Wyatt was in 9th grade, was clearly a high school student, but was still goofy and awkward and wasn't doing inappropriate things. I need so many more of this type of book that I am still completely willing to put together a list of librarians and teachers who are willing to deliver meals to Mr. Barry's house so he can write full-time and not have to worry about mundane domestic tasks.
I recommend this book to libraries, schools, and parents that have a child in middle school or older. It would be a good book for a 4th or 5th grader also. Seriously go buy it at one of the links I listed, I doubt you will regret it I received this book for free in exchange for my honest, but completely unbiased review. All thoughts and opinions are my own.

I listened to The Worst Class Trip Ever at the end of last year and it was a very pleasant surprise. I was able to listen to The Worst Night Ever which is the second book in the series. Wyatt and his friends are back for another adventure and this time they are in their freshman year of high school. Wyatt’s friend Matt decides to bring his pet ferret Frank to school, which leads them on a crazy series of events. They stumble upon a dangerous secret involving the family of the biggest bullies of the school.
Worst Night Ever was enjoyable, but there was not as much magic to it that Worst Class Trip had. The beginning dragged for me, and it all just seemed too silly. Even though they are in high school now, Wyatt and friends still came off as middle schoolers. Maybe this is just ‘boy mentality’/ lack of maturity. Everything dealing with Frank the ferret just did not work for me, though it all led up to Wyatt’s discovery. When it got to the ‘dangerous secret’ I became interested in the story.
These stories are not believable at all (in a good way); this would be enjoyed by and appropriate for middle schoolers, especially boys. The narrator Todd Haberkorn portrays Wyatt perfectly. I would like to see what adventure Wyatt and his friends find themselves in next. I can’t see any adventure being better than the first.
The Worst Night Ever is recommended.
