Another hilariously fab book from the slightly insane mind of Georgia Nicholson, everyone's red-bottomed teenager. This time around we play witness to a school trip to Paris (relatively uneventful when considering Georgia's normal drama), plenty more of the Sex God, and an introduction to the Cosmic Horn. I'm not even going to try to explain it, since I'm sure I won't do it justice, so you'll just have to read the book! But - quelle tragique! - Robbie abandons his dream of being a popstar to go off and play with sheep in Kiwi-a-gogo land (New Zealand). Poor Georgia is left on her own again, but maybe she'll get her act together and get with Dave the Laugh? Good chance...
While not quite as hilarious as the three previous books in the series, this one still had me laughing out loud. The lull that occurred when Georgia travels to France (which should’ve been far more entertaining than it was) kept this from being a 4 star read for me. But the entertainment factor kicked into high gear again towards the end of the book, and now I can’t wait to get my hands on the next one!
The books in this hilarious series (American titles):
Angus, Thongs, and Full-Frontal Snogging
On the Bright Side, I'm Now the Girlfriend of a Sex-God
Knocked Out by My Nunga Nungas
Dancing in My Nuddy Pants
Away Laughing on a Fast Camel
Then He Ate My Boy Entrancers
Startled by His Furry Shorts
Love is a Many Trousered Thing
? (It's the series that never ends!)
Georgia Nicolson is a self-absorbed, British teenager who keeps a diary detailing her life in all its glorious angst(think Bridget Jones for teens). Her parents are mad and her friends just do not realize that Georgia is indeed the center of the known universe. She's got a cat who is half Scottish wildcat and a little sister who is only partially potty-trained. Georgia thinks about boys show more constantly and treats them kind of like Lays potato chips (you can't kiss just one).
She accidentally shaves off her eyebrows, goes to a party dressed as a stuffed olive, and has problems with nipple control. Nevertheless, she manages to attract the attention of Robbie the Sex-God, Dave the Laugh (who coins many funny phrases like piddly-diddly department and away laughing on a fast camel), and Masimo the Dreamboat. Georgia suffers from a severe case of what Dave the Laugh calls "the Cosmic Horn" and can't seem to settle down with just one boyfriend.
Georgia gets herself into one hilarious predicament after another. While this series isn't exactly classic literature, I dare you to read it without laughing out loud. show less

Another fun and quick read but with a wee bit more maturity from Georgia. It's been fun to watch her and her friends grow. The ending was a wonderful call back to the previous book. Near the end of the book I found the story dragging a bit but not to the point that I loss interest or wanted to put the book down.
This book is silly, hilarious, quick to read, and will make you happy. No, this book isn't waxing poetical about current events, but when you're down, or at the beach, or bored, this book will cheer you up.
Poor Georgia! Forced to cohabit with her insane Mutti and Vati and the wicked Libbs and wildly red-bottomed Angus....to learn Maths and geoggers with teachers who do not respect her maturosity and her sophisticosity....How can she possibly focus on the truly important issues such as whether she should snog the Sex God or Dave the Laugh?
Like the others in the series this was cute and funny. Poor Angus has had his biscuits removed against his (and Georgia's) will. And while Georgia is the girlfriend of a 'Sex God', I really think Dave the Laugh is better for her. I suppose we'll find out which one she decides on in the next book.

- She who laughs last laughs the laughingest. Sunday November 21st. My bedroom. Midday as the crow flies. Throwing it down. I've just seen a sparrow be quite literally washed off its perch on a tree.
- Last words
