Description

In Hot Mess, book 19 of the Diary of a Wimpy Kid series from #1 international bestselling author Jeff Kinney, Greg Heffley is in for a particularly awkward summer with his whole family.

The pressure is building for Greg Heffley, who discovers that when you mix heaps of family, a tiny beach house, and sweltering heat, it's a recipe for disaster.

Speaking of recipes--the secret ingredients behind Gramma's famous meatballs have been closely guarded for years. Can Greg unpack all of his family's mysteries before their vacation is over? Or will he just stir the pot?

This sidesplittingly relatable summer story is the funniest Wimpy Kid book yet!

Target, don't put your own stickers on book covers please

Book arrived timely - a Christmas gift for my son. Target put 2 stickers on the front cover. One came off easily. The other not at all leaving a sticker mess on what was supposed to be a brand new book. Not happy

Average

Some of it was funny but it felt as if the ending was predictable. Having a dog character act like it could do things that were impossible for them to do. The stories have been tending to lean towards an unrealistically surreal element since The Long Haul came out. It’s not as good as The Meltdown but it’s a lot better than Hard Luck.
