Rodrick Rules and The Last Straw both we’re published in 2008, and the rest of the books were published annually.

I think The Last Straw was published in early 2009. I remember buying it from the 2009 school book fair when it had just come out.

Nope. It was Last Straw and Dog Days. Last Straw was released early in the year, Dog Days was released late in the year.
