Plot Characters Reception Commonsensemedia rated the book at three out of five stars, writing "Nate cleans up his act to save a friendship in funny read." The Concord Monitor gave a favorable review and commented that "As usual, and in keeping with the genre, it has an edgy tone and some irreverent observations that some adults will take exception to. Sloppiness may be a hidden virtue, but a fresh mouth is harder to defend."
