The book I am reading is Ungifted it's by Gordon Korman.
it is about a kid named Donovan who is a trouble maker. He was voted most likely to wind up in jail in middle school, the last two years running. He does a major prank at his school and he thought he was going to get in trouble, instead he got accepted in a special program for gifted students. He is not happy but of course his parentrs are happy for him.
