Product Description

Review
Praise for "...and that's when it fell off in my hand." Readers will find themselves laughing uncontrollably until their sides hurt, and won't be able to put the book down. Sunday Times "Hilarious... [Louise Rennison] is queen of the pink-book pack." The Times "Rennison at her best." Waterstone's Quarterly Praise for Angus, Thongs and Full-Frontal Snogging: "Bridget Jones for teenagers -- but funnier. Expect Potter-esque queues for the sequel." The Sunday Telegraph "Don't miss this gem" The Guardian Praise for other "Georgia" titles: "Hilarious. Georgia Nicolson's laugh-a-minute narration picks up right where Angus, Thongs and Full-Frontal Snogging left off." Publishers weekly (starred review) "As fabbity-fab-fab as its predecessor" ALA Booklist (starred review) "For those who already know and love Georgia, there's only one word necessary: more." Kirkus Reviews

Sunday Times

5.0 out of 5 stars An excellent read, 7 Mar 2007
Georgia Nicoleson is a distraught teenager, crushed by her love loss. Although, her friends are supporting and it's not long before she meets a new sex god. Georgia argues a lot with her best friend Jas, but she needs her friends to escape the madness of her house. Her family are interfering and an embarrassment to her.

The main character is Georgia Nicoleson. I sympathise for her, because she has quite a troubled life. She finds her family highly embarrassing and she doesn't like her friends to see them at all. She has a cat called Angus, whom is quite like a human to them, and the way that his actions are described is quite human like. Georgia's best friend, Jas, is mentioned frequently throughout and her character is ambitious and outgoing like many of her friends. All of the characters have situations that everyday people can relate to.

The genre of this book is humour/romance. The book is about a teenage girl in love, but there is a humorous twist to it. Romance it may be, you'll still find it hilarious.

There are many enjoyable aspects of the book, such as, when Georgia went to a party to meet this handsome boy, Masimo, she wore false eye lashers and when she was talking to him they glued her eyes shut. I liked this part, because it was very funny to read and she couldn't re-open her eyes.

The story moves quite slowly, because it is in the form of a diary. Although the pace is slow, there isn't too much description. But you still know what is going on.

I think that the author has tried to achieve to her potential readers a glimpse into the life of a 16 year old and the ups and downs that may occur throughout home, school and social events.

I think that the opening to the book could be improved, it isn't very appealing. The opening is quite boring and not exciting. But apart from this I think that the book is very good and balanced, including a bit of everything.

I would recommend this book for 12-16 year old girls, because they can relate to the language and situations of the book. Overall I would recommend this book, because it's hilariously life like and based on everyday occurrences of a typical 16 year old's life experiences and will keep you laughing from page to page.

5.0 out of 5 stars Georgia does it again ..., 16 Jun 2005
By Quirkycat (Glasgow, Scotland) - See all my reviews
A new book in the series ... and another great chance to make everyone think you are completly mad, as you cackle and splutter at every page and every new (completely mental) joke. Having said that, this isn't the place for new fans to start at; buy the first books! Otherwise you will miss lots of 'in' jokes, like the Cosmic Horn and all.
Right; I've being trying to work out what it is exactly about Georgia that is so funny ...

... her mad, mad, mad expressions? (She is totally responsible for me and my friends calling Biology 'Blodge' and Geography 'joggers'! Also hilarious is a section at the back where Georgia tries to translate English expressions for an American audience ... cue a lot of disbelief and tongue-in-cheek mocking!)

... her appalling family? (Ie; her kid sister takes a statue of Jesus off a shrine Georgia made - for some bonkers reason I forget now - and uses him as a boyfriend for ScubaDiving Barbie! And her father ...! Let's just call him 'Legalet' and be done with it!)

...or maybe the amazingly cringy situations she inexplicably, constantly finds herself in? (I mean, who couln't laugh at the scene where she gets her 'boy-entrancers' - false eyelashes - stuck together and has to dance the Conga to Rolf Harris in order to get away from Masimo, Italian Hot Guy Extraordinair, without too much, *smirk*, embarrassment?)

Whatever the reason, Georgia is at once every teenage girl and the girl every teenager would rather die than be ... except, of course, when she gets her man, or in some cases, men ... Another round of 'lets go down to the disco dancing, anyone?'
