Diary of a Wimpy Kid: Hot Mess
A parent's review: modest, kosher, funny 
*******

All of these books have multiple themes, so the ones that I extract from this are:

1. Family members getting on each other's nerves. (Highly relatable.)

2. Sibling rivalry 

3. Teenage relationships come and go and are not that serious. (Years later you won't even know where they are.) 

4. Sanitized version of Captain save a Hoe

5. YouTube/internet celebrities. 

6. Free range parenting versus helicopter parenting. 

7. Senescence of grandparents. Possible Alzheimer's/ dementia. 

The whole book doesn't even take an hour to read, so For such a small investment it's worth it to be aware of what your kids are reading / as a palate cleanser.
