Characters and Plot
The Deep End is the fifth book in the Wimpy Kid series by Jeff Kinney. The book follows Greg Heffley, who has to face some big challenges in his life. One of these challenges is dealing with his fear of water.
Greg’s parents take him and his brother on a vacation to the deep end of a swimming pool. Greg is so scared of the water that he can’t even swim a few strokes. His brother, Rodrick, takes pity on him and helps him get over his fear.
This experience proves to be valuable later on when Greg has to deal with his fear of public speaking. He uses the same method of overcoming his fear by facing his fears one at a time. In the end, he is able to overcome his fear and give a speech at school.
The Deep End is an exciting book that will keep readers interested from beginning to end. It is full of suspense and will leave them wondering what will happen next.
Thoughts on the Ending
The ending of The Deep End was a bit of a letdown for me. I had been looking forward to it for quite some time, and I was disappointed when it finally arrived. I think that the ending could have been much better if it had been handled differently.
I appreciate the fact that Kinney took the time to explore Greg’s character further and to give readers an understanding of why he behaved the way he did at the end of the book. However, I think that the ending could have been more satisfying if it had been revealed earlier in the story. It felt anticlimactic after all of the buildup.
Nonetheless, I still enjoyed The Deep End overall. Kinney’s writing is engaging and his characters are likable, which makes reading about them enjoyable.
Summary
The Deep End is the diary of a wimpy kid, and it is hilarious. Jeff Kinney does a great job of capturing the voice and thoughts of a 8th grader. He also takes some great creative liberties with the story, which I found to be VERY humorous.
2. Characters
There are several interesting, well-developed characters in The Deep End. Greg is the typical wimp, but he’s got some guts and is not afraid to stand up for himself.

The humor in The Deep End was spot on for me. It was funny without being crude or vulgar, and it made me laugh out loud multiple times. If you’re looking for a good laugh, this book is definitely worth reading!
