Hot Mess: A laugh-out-loud summer disaster from the #1 international bestselling Diary of a Wimpy Kid series (Book 19) (Volume 19)

I loved reading these books as a kid so when my sister wanted it I had to get it. I’m surprised they are still coming out with books so had to make sure she had the new ones. Super easy to read and sometimes funny too.

Great Christmas gift for our 11 year old nephew who loves this series!

This book was exactly what I hoped for—funny, chaotic, and genuinely entertaining from start to finish. The humor lands well, the pacing is quick, and the story leans fully into its “hot mess” energy in the best way possible. It’s the kind of book that makes you smile, laugh out loud, and keep turning pages because you want to see what disaster happens next. The characters feel relatable and imperfect, which adds to the charm, and the writing style is light and easy to follow without feeling shallow. It’s great for reading in short bursts or bingeing in one sitting, especially if you’re looking for something fun and low-stress. Overall, this is a perfect summer read—witty, engaging, and entertaining without taking itself too seriously. Highly recommended if you’re in the mood for humor, heart, and a bit of delightful chaos.

Hot Mess keeps the Wimpy Kid streak alive with Greg Heffley stumbling through a summer that turns into one long disaster. Between family chaos, vacation mishaps, and Greg’s knack for making small problems bigger, the laughs come quick. The mix of comic-style illustrations and cringe-worthy situations makes it easy to breeze through, and fans will recognize the familiar rhythm of Greg’s misadventures. It’s light, funny, and perfectly captures the “summer gone wrong” vibe.

Book 19 of an entertaining series. Purchased for my daughter for her birthday to complete collection with the latest volume. Greg Hefley up to his standard hijinks. A good quick read that can be enjoyed in repeated reads.

Our kids love these books, and one night I was asked to read it to them. I actually laughed out loud myself! The humor is clean, relatable, and very funny. The images are great, and we love the series.

My granddaughter had been waiting for months for this new Diary of A Wimpy Kid book to finally come out. Amazon had the lowest price, so I got it for her. She loves, collects and reads each book in the series many times.

My kids love this book series! A great buy for kids elementary and middle school!
