Dear Dumb Diary

By Jim Brenton

In this book, the main characters are Jamie kelly ( main person ), Isabella, Angeline, and Stinker ( her pet dog ). Those are mostly the main characters you hear from in this book.

The settings mostly takes place in a school which Jamie writes about pretty much her daily life at middle school.

This book is about Jamie writing a diary about her daily life in middle school. Lots of crazy things happen with Angeline ( The popular girl ). Angeline has long beautiful silky blond hair that one day gets tangle and has to be all chopped off. Lots of crazy things happen in this book like Jamie dying her hair, Angeline stealing Isabelle's favorite chapstick flavor, Jamie having plums a lot and a kid trying to nickname her plum girl,  and much more. Every Thursday at their school they have meatloaf and when the students don't eat them the cafe lady goes crazy questioning them "what's wrong with the meatloaf?", one day she told everyone that "nobody could leave until they had finished her meatloaf". Jamie has to do a mythology test and it turns out that Stinker eats it Jamie feels like Stinker was waiting for the perfect moment which was for her to finish it, but she feels as if it was payback as he only ate the words. As she had not handed her test it caused her to get an "f" from Mr. Evans.

I rate this book 4/5

What I liked: I like how it had lots of interesting little stories like how she died her hair. I also liked how it was set up into a dairy.

What I disliked: I disliked how it didn't really have a main story to it. It was kind of all over the place in a way. Other than that I liked this book.
