Echt übel! (Gregs Tagebuch 8)

The series is known for making readers laugh but also touching on relatable struggles. I'm curious how he decides when to lean into comedy or sincerity.

The ups and downs of friendships in middle school are tricky, and Greg's experiences seem spot-on. Did these stories remind others of their own middle school days?

The diary format makes the story feel personal and funny, but I wonder if that was a conscious decision from the start or evolved during writing.
