Description

Brilliantly funny, teenage angst author Louise Rennison's fifth book about the confessions of crazy but lovable Georgia Nicolson. Louise will be a star on the HarperCollins teenage list. "11.20a.m. This is my fabulous life: the Sex God left for Whakatane last month and he has taken my heart with him. 11.25a.m. Not literally of course otherwise there would be a big hole in my nunga nungas. 11.28a.m. And also I would be dead. Which quite frankly would be a blessing in disguise. 12.00p.m. It is soooo boring being brokenhearted!"!but Georgia doesn't remain brokenhearted for long: frequent snogging extravaganzas with old flame, Dave the Laugh, and the arrival of jelloid-knee-inducing Italian stallion, Masimo, mean that Georgia has her work cut out to remain the composed sex-kitten that she aspires to be. Follow Georgia's hilarious antics as she desperately muddles her way through teenage life and all that it entails: make-up disasters, rapidly expanding nunga nungas, school - urgh, unsympathetic friends, highly embarrassing family (and pets) and, of course, BOYS.

Reviews

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."
