Summary: Warning: This Book May Make You Snort With Laughter!
Review: Georigia Nicolson is the most hilarious British Chick ever! I'll be reading in study hall and just burst out laughing. (Caution: this book may get you into trouble with your teachers!) The storyline is hilarious and entertaining. There is a glossary in the back to "educate" you on the British lingo. My friends and I love to walk around talking like her. The entire diary series is awesome. Yup, the books are my FAVORITES ever!

Summary: Angus, Thongs and Full-Frontal Snogging
Review: "Angus, Thongs and Full-Frontal Snogging a fictional comedy by Louise Rennison is a great book about a teenage girl named Georgia Nicolson. The book is written as if it were Georgia's diary in which she writes about her family, guy problems, and problems with friends, kissing, her nose, and everything else she deals with in her daily life. She has a little sister and crazy parents. One week, she goes to Peter's house, a guy who will give kissing lessons to anyone who comes to his house before his mom gets home at 6:30, so when she goes to a party later in the week she knows how to kiss. Rennison describes Georgia so well that by the end of the story you have a complete picture in your head of who Georgia Nicolson is. I would say this book is more for women, teenagers and up, most women can read this book and relate to at least one thing Georgia is dealing with. I really enjoyed reading this book, and would totally recommend you to read this book, and I really look forward to reading other books by Louise Rennison!

Summary: You might not want to read this book in public...
Review: Hello, American-type chums! That is the first sentence to a hilarious book. I started this book for the first time at the mall, while I was waiting for a friend. BIG MISTAKE! About reading the book at the mall, I mean. I was laughing out loud during the first five pages (I got some weird looks that day)and laughed the rest of the way through as well. I half-expected someone to come up to me to say that a girl in my condition shouldn't be here.I don't like summarizing; I leave other people to do that, so if you want to know what this book is about read another review. If you just finished a heavy book and just want a quick but extremely funny read, this is a good choice! I think what makes it the most funny is that you can picture all the things Georgia describes happening, because the charachters are so real and human! Plus it's British, which is always a plus. Worth reading, indeed!

Review: This book and the three others that follow it are full of laughs. It's a quick read and entertains you the whole way. I recommend this book to anyone 10 and up. Georgia, the main character, even has a glossary in the back of the book so anyone can understand the English lingo.

Summary: Entertaining and has some really good tips!
Review: This book is sutable for any teenage girl, no matter what they are like because this relates to every aspect of our world. The book is like her journal and keeps everything in it. Everthing from boys to how not to tweeze your eyebrows, this girl has done everything and she never has anything NOT to do with her free time after dealing with her crazy family. I have read the first one, and I was immediately drug in. I have read them all and I highly recommend this book.(even if you are a parent trying to discover what really goes through our heads...)

Summary: All right, I admit it...
Review: ...this book was one of those guilty pleasures that some people occasionally enjoy in small doses. I started reading this for the first time about a year ago, and after 30 pages, was fed up with the irritating, tedious main character and underdeveloped setting. I don't know what called me back to "Angus", but for some mysterious reason, I finished it.
'We are not amused.' If any book fits this quote like a glove, this is it. Although there were some funny instances, most of the book was downright boring and nauseating, like listening to a friend spend nine hours describing a trip to a grocery store, all with the sound of nails on a chalkboard in the background. Georgia was arrogant, shallow, and obsessive over everything. I'm ashamed of this representation of a modern teen. If you really want to read a funny yet substantial book about the love life of a teen girl, try "What My Mother Doesn't Know" by Sonya Sones, or "The Sisterhood of the Traveling Pants" by Ann Brashares.

Summary: Don't Read on the Airplane Like I Did
Review: This book is funny. It has no real plot, no real depth, no real characters, but my goodness, it is funny. You will love reading just one page of this book because it will lift your spirits and keep you feeling fabbity-fab-fab.

Summary: Angus, Thongs, and Full-Frontal Snogging
Review: Have you ever felt like you were the only one going through those freakishly odd times in adolescence? Well, your not, and this book proves it. Angus, Thongs, and Full-Frontal Snogging is the side-splitting diary of Georgia Nicholson, who goes through everything an average teenage girl would, even those totally weird things that you thought only you were capable of.
The characters in this book seem so alive, no teenage girl could resist it. I've learned a few good lessons from this book, yet there is not a one part in it that doesn't make me laugh hysterically. Angus, Thongs, and Full-Frontal Snogging is an awesome story of friendship, adolescence, and mistakes you could make along the way.
I recommend Angus, Thongs, and Full-Frontal Snogging to anyone who has read some of the other books by Louise Rennisson, such as On the Bright Side, I'm Now the Girlfriend of a Sex God. Another book similar to this book is Mates, Dates, and Inflatable Bras. If you have not read these, I would recommend it to teenage girls with a huge sense of humor.

Summary: Laughed My Knickers Off!!
Review: I absolutely loved this book!! It is about a young, fourteen-year-old girl in the eighth grade by the name of Georgia Nicolson. She is British and lives in England. Basically, this book is a journal of Georgia's everyday life. But it isn't any ordinary journal that talks about boring every day stuff; this journal tells of her crazed family, her ridiculous and defective school teachers, as well as all of the crazy events that take place in her everyday life. The best part about her journal is that she has an absolutely hysterical way of explaining everything. A word of warning: this is not your typical teenager.
Georgia has a little three-year-old sister, Libby who likes to pee in hidden corners of Georgia's room and puts her dirty diapers under the covers at the bottom of Georgia's bed, secretly waiting to be found when Georgia gets into bed. Her half domestic tabby, half Scottish wildcat Angus, is the size of a small Labrador. No, he's not a huge cuddle toy; he is psychotic and relentlessly stalks the next door neighbor's poodle, driving the neighbors up the wall. Georgia used to walk him on a lead (a leather leash) but Angus ate it. As for Georgia's parents, her dad is a businessman who Georgia could care less for, mostly because she inherited his genes for a humongous schnoz. He is extremely uptight, strict, and short tempered. Just as Georgia's dad has a huge nose, her mother has gigantic "bosoomers". Georgia is terrified of developing to the size of her mother - she doesn't see how her mother can stand or even get through the door with those things! And she can't even imagine where her mom would be able to buy bras that actually fit.
Throughout the story Georgia talks about how ugly she is and how gigantic her nose is. It's actually very funny because she is desperately hoping she won't have to become a lesbian for the rest of her life; she thinks she won't ever have a boyfriend due to her ugliness. However, Georgia does have two or three boyfriends throughout this story, and she is the girlfriend at the end of the book of a so called sex god, who she absolutely obsessed over.
Georgia's descriptions were so vivid and full of her true feelings that I felt as if she was talking directly to me. Even her thoughts seemed to be spoken out loud. When Georgia was mad at Jas or her mother or father, I felt just as mad as she did because she was justified in being upset...okay, not always perfectly good justification, but you get my point.
The writing in this book flowed and made you want to read more and more and kept you on your toes, wondering what would happen next to Georgia. I like that it wasn't a typical mushy gushy story about teenage love and full of things that aren't likely to and don't typically happen. So if you are in the mood for a good laugh, pick this book up and I guarantee you'll have a great time - I sure did.
