Summary: Dissapointed....
Review: So I had read the first book Angus thongs and full frontal snogging, and I couldn't wait until the next one came out! So I went to my new school and they had it at the library but there was a long waiting list to read it, finally, my friend had read and finished it, so she lent it to me. I spent a sick day reading it, laughing outloud alone in my room. The book was fine, except that I was left down at the end, I mean she seemed to be in the same place with robbie, I mean I know thats how real life is, but if i wanted real life I could read my diary! Plus I didn't really like the way the book ended. I mean it seemed like a silly thing to write "Oh whats gunna happen next!?" other wise I was thrilled during the book the story was great, but the ending was silly, but still theres always a next time....

Rating: 5 stars
Summary: The Funniest book alive!
Review: OK sure, the book isn't exactly "alive" but this is the funniest book I have read since...well, "Angus, Thongs, and Full Frontal Snogging" They both are LAUGH OUT LOUD FUNNY!!! You fall for the "Sex God" with Georgia....you hate Jas with her...you feel all of the emotions and laugh at all Georgia's jokes! You MUST read this book...GEORGIA ROCKS!

Rating: 4 stars
Summary: Look out! Georgia Nicholson is back...
Review: After reading ANGUS, THONGS and FULL-FRONTAL SNOGGING I couldn't wait to read this book, and I am very happy to announce that I was not in the least bit disappointed. Georgia Nicholson is just as entertaining as before, and her diary is just as much fun to read. She has to deal with being forced to go to "Kiwi-a-Gogo Land" (aka New Zeland), executing "Operation Rubberband", being around her crazy friend Jas, and a number of other things, while also being back at school under the tyrannical tutleage of Slim & co., and at the mercy of the "Bummer Twins."

The writing is excellent, since, unlike in most books that are supposed to be the diary of a teenager, the style of writing is kept realistic. Georgia is neither profoundly deep nor repulsively shallow. She's pretty normal, if there is such a thing. The one real problem that I have with this book is that I can't really relate to any of the characters because their way of life seems so completely different. Maybe it's because I'm from the USA and this is a very British story. It doesn't bother me all that much, but it is a little weird, and is the reason that I gave this book 4 stars instead of 5.

Anyone who read and enjoyed ANGUS, THONGS AND FULL-FRONTAL SNOGGING will definitely get a kick out of reading this book. Probably teenage girls will enjoy this and AT+FFS more than any other group of people. The only thing left to say is thank goodness Louise Rennison is already working on two more installments of Georgia's diary, because after all:

"What in the name of pantyhose is going to happen next?"

Summary: Well hmmm........
Review: This is the exact opposite of good literature. The characters are pretty shallow, the plot is not TERRIBLY engaging, and (as others have said) the attitudes are certainly bad. That said, this (and Angus, Thongs, etc) are the two funniest books I have ever read. I ignored everyones advice and actually DID read this in my algebra class, and it was a mistake...I was literally in hysterics in the middle of class. This is not a GOOD book, but I would still recommend it. It's too, too funny to miss.

Rating: 5 stars
Summary: FUNNY STUFF!
Review: This book and "Agnus, Thongs, and Full-frontle Snogging" are two of the funniest books I have ever read. You should probably refrain from reading these in public! = )

Rating: 5 stars
Summary: Funniest Teenage Novel Ever
Review: I laughed so hard I cried...definatly puts things into perspective...

Rating: 1 stars
Summary: Great, another book that tells teens to think only about sex
Review: This book really bugged me. Yes, I giggled at some of the funny stuff (Angus and Libby are great), but come on--the plot is thin to nonexistent, the parent-kid relationships are appalling, the way the supposed friends treat each other is awful, and worst of all, the obsession with sexual activity is scary.

Do people really think it's OK for a 14-year old girl to be sneaking out to clubs, parks, friend's homes, so she can make out with boys??!?

I think Georgia is shallow, dim-witted, and self-centered. She has made the classic mistake of thinking that just because boys like to kiss her and feel her up, they like *her*.

Georgia is every stereotype about girls we don't want kept alive: nasty to her friends, stupid, and convinced that sex with boys is the most important thing in her life.

C'mon, girls, there are a million other books to read with *real* girls as main characters.

Parents: talk with your daughters about the attitudes in this book. Just because it says it's for 12 year-olds doesn't mean it's what you want your 12-year old thinking she could be.

Rating: 5 stars
Summary: MUST READ!!
Review: Oh good lord! I thought this book was great! Laugh Out Loud funnay! I couldn't put it down!! God I feel like I know Georgia Nicholson. Were like buddies. I thought the sex god was a bit on the a-hole side yet at parts he was a romantic. You gotta read it.

Rating: 4 stars
Summary: Funny
Review: On a friend's suggestion, I checked this book out of the library and read it in one night. It was funny and realistic and a great read. If you're looking for a fun, quick read, I recommend this. If your looking for a book to do an English report on, find something else. It's not great literature, but a short chuckle. It's worth spending your time on.

Rating: 5 stars
Summary: ANOTHER FUN FILLED STORY!!!
Review: If you haven't read the first book then you haven't experienced the great misshaps of Georgia's wierd life. This is a continuation of Thongs, Angus and full Frontal Snogging! And mark my words: THIS IS THE MOST GREATES BOOK FOR TEENS!!!! Full of hillariouse miss happenenings, and fun filled every day life. Recomened to all people who enjoy comedy at it's best!
