Bookroo's summary

Jamie Kelly's diary reveals the tangled web of middle school crushes. She's smitten with Hudson, but he's infatuated with the school's beauty queen. Meanwhile, Jamie's admirer remains a mystery. As she navigates this comedic chaos, Jamie's candid entries promise a rollercoaster of emotions and unexpected twists. Will she find her fairy tale ending, or is middle school destined to be a hilarious disaster? Dive into Jamie's world where truth is flexible, and every page is a new adventure.

From the publisher

Read the hilarious, candid (and sometimes not-so-nice), diaries of Jamie Kelly, who promises that everything in her diary is true – or at least as true as it needs to be.Jamie is crushing on Hudson. Someone too-gross-to-be- named is crushing on Jamie. And Hudson is crushing on . . . Princess Turd of Turdsylvania (a.k.a. The Prettiest Girl in the World). Middle school may be grim, but it’s no fairy tale. And crazy doesn’t even begin to cover it.
