Rodrick Rules by Jeff Kinney

My rating: 5 of 5 stars

Anyone who has a sibling or siblings could relate to Greg in this 2nd installment. Aside from Manny, Rodrick is one of my favorite character in this series. Rodrick could be a little pain in the ass for Greg but behind his facade, he cares and love for his younger brothers even though he just doesn't want to admit it.

MY RATING: The Card Wars tournament is really amazing so I wonder if there's an Adventure Time Card Wars that is being sold by Kaboom or Cartoon Network. I immediately search if there's any and I'm surprise that they have a mobile game available for download. Will definitely check that out because of how this particular comics issues made me like that game.
