Angus, Thongs and Full-Frontal Snogging: Confessions of Georgia Nicolson by Louise Rennison


6 Stars (-1 for language)

Georgia Nicolson is a sassy British teenager, for whom nothing ever goes right. And even if things were to go right for a change, she'd still find plenty to complain about. Herein, Georgia argues with her father, complains about her cat, crushes on a local hottie, complains about said hottie's girlfriend, argues with her mother, complains about her sister, argues with her friends about the hottie, and generally makes the reader laugh throughout it all.

This is definitely not a read for everyone. As evidenced by the title, it's a little irreverent at times. But HILARIOUS. If you're ever in the mood for being in a whiny, self-centered, British teen's head for an afternoon, though, this here's your book. (And, if nothing else, you should pick it up and read her "British" glossary at the back. Probably the best part of the book, really.)
