Book: I am a Genius of Unspeakable Evil and I want to be your Class President by Josh Lieb
Age-range: 10 and up
Rating: 10 out of 10
This book was hilarious! I was afraid with all the hype it received it would ultimately disappoint. It absolutely did not. This is a story told from the point of view of a 12-year-old 7th grader named Oliver who is a self-described genius of unspeakable evil. It's engaging, compelling, imaginative, and quick.
Oliver is a genius who is fooling the world into thinking he's an idiot. To get his father's attention (though he says he doesn't care what Daddy thinks) he decides to run for 8th grade class president. Hilarity ensues. It's not just a funny story, however, it also has some heart in it. It really makes you think about how kids are treated and why.
I would suggest this book whole-heartedly if you're looking for something to make you laugh.
