Journal entries of fourteen year old Georgia relate her trials and tribulations relating to family, school, and mainly boys. Her voice shines through in the hilarious writing as she relates her experiences with things every teen girl experiences, although her views are slightly on the bad girl side. Makeup, bra sizes, little sisters, pet cats, lesbians, boys, and kissing are all discussed with frankness that will bring laughs on almost every page. The main focus of Georgia is winning the heart of Sex God Robbie, with lots of stops to practice snogging with other boys. And don't worry about the British slang; the handy glossary will provide understanding and even more laughs. About the only complaint is that the "journal" format seems more of an unfulfilled gimmick that provides time settings to story happenings rather than feeling like actually reading someone's journal. Girls growing through life will relate to the hilarious antics of Georgia and her friends, and boys can even benefit from a view into the slightly deranged female mind. ( )

A fourteen-year old Bridget Jones-esque girl chronicles her crazy life in this hilarious book. Georgia gets into the most hilarious situations and faces realistic teen worries including: having parents that don't understand her, trying to get the boy of her dreams (the Sex God), dealing with younger siblings, standing up for herself, surviving the latest bit of torture inflicted by her teachers...
It goes on and on and it's all too funny.
I loved this book. I loved the narration and her witticisms. I especially enjoyed reading through the 'dictionary' of all the British slang sayings at the end. Can't wait to read the rest of this series. ( )

Angus, Thongs and Full-Frontal Snogging is a hilarious look into the diary of a 14 year old English school girl. Georgia has some interesting adventures with her ferocious cat Angus, does some teen age stalking of the boys or "Sex Gods" and deals with a seperation from her father. You will laugh out loud at her attemps to use a razor to shave various unwanted hairs from her body. This is the first in a series of three books and includes a protagonist written glossary of terms just for American readers who don't know English-slang. Great light hearted book. Read by Kristy Fall '09.
