Middle school is hard enough without dealing with paranormal pants.

In My Pants Are Haunted, Jim Benton dives headfirst into the awkward, hilarious, and totally unfiltered life of Jamie Kelly—the wildly opinionated star of the Dear Dumb Diary series. If you’ve ever felt like the world was secretly laughing at you behind your back (and also directly to your face), this book is going to hit way too close… in the best way possible.

Jamie’s convinced her pants are cursed. She’s sure her friend Angeline is somehow responsible. And she’s not entirely wrong. With her signature sarcasm and some deeply questionable decision-making skills, Jamie takes readers on a journey through friendship drama, fashion horror stories, and the occasional haunting—all told through her diary entries, doodles, and inner monologue chaos.

One gem from the book:

“Sometimes I wonder if I’m actually the only normal person left on Earth. Which would be really sad, because I’m super weird.”

Relatable? Absolutely.

This book doesn’t just entertain—it reminds readers that feeling weird, dramatic, and confused is basically just… being human (especially when you're 12). It’s laugh-out-loud funny, a little ridiculous, and exactly what you need when the world makes no sense.
