Gaming is Cameron Boxer's life. Unfortunately, after his video game obsession nearly causes a kitchen fire, his parents issue an ultimatum: find an extra social activity or lose his game system forever. Having no interest in anything other than video games, Cam comes up with the perfect plan: start a fake school club so that his parents will believe he's doing something besides gaming. He even has his friend Pavel hack into the school website and create a fake webpage for the club, thinking that no one will notice it. However, someone does notice and Cam's made-up club, the Positive Action Group (P.A.G.) soon becomes the most popular club in school! Suddenly the club that Cam made up to avoid other activities has now consumed his life. What a great book! I love how Gordon Korman alternated narrators throughout the story, giving the reader an opportunity to get to know each character better. I found this story humorous, yet realistic, and very entertaining!
