Want to learn about Covid? I didn't think so. Covid and reading anything remotely interesting just don't mix. Got it! But...if you want to laugh about the craziness of living in a real pandemic then this book is for you! Starting middle school during a pandemic is definitely not ideal for Casey Murphy. His parents make him an offer he can't refuse. If he fills an entire notebook describing his life in 2020, then he can buy his dream baseball bat. Time is on his side, so he gets to work describing The Worst Year Ever! From top secret baseball tactics, to messy vacations and boating misadventures, seeing it all down on paper makes Casey realize, maybe it's not so terrible after all. Well, at least not the worst!
