In the latest instalment in the hilarious confessions of Georgia Nicolson, following on from Angus, Thongs and Full Frontal Snogging and It's OK I'm wearing Really Big Knickers, Georgia is now totally in love with Sex God (SG) and has changed her address to Snogging HeadQuarters, Snogging Lane, Snoggington on account of all the lip-action she is getting these days. But her love is tested when she is dragged off to Scotland for a week to a cottage so remote that the only entertainment is hanging around the local Alldays supermarket, a situation made worse by the fact that SG has a big gig coming up and it looks as though the band have a record contract just within their grasp, leaving poor Georgia something of a "pop widow".
Consequently, just when she thinks she has her life sussed out, up rears temptation in the form of old flame, Laughing Dave. A quick snog rekindles some old desires and before long, her head is in teenage turmoil. Meanwhile, Angus, her psychotic cat who has been lusting after the cat across the road (despite the best efforts of Georgia's father and the rather boring, rather cross neighbours) suddenly finds himself in a bit of a dilemma too as his animal passion is threatened by a quick visit to the vet...
By the third instalment the divine Georgia's diary could easily have all become a bit too familiar, but Louise Rennison still comes up with the goods, producing another fresh, side-splitting adventure for her hapless heroine. The dialogue is spot on and her relationships with friends, family, ex-boyfriends and pets are perfectly drawn. Support characters get a lot more page time here than in the first two books, and this adds to the pleasure--baby sister Libby who, at her halloween party, concusses her small guests with a pumpkin lantern is a particular joy, as is Georgia' dappy best friend, who is seemingly oblivious to her mate's teenage angst, yet always comes through in the end.
Georgia's adventure's are consistently touching, warm, funny and real, and make for perfect teen reading. As Georgia would say, you will laugh like a loon on loon tablets!- Age 11 and over. --Jonathan Weir

Knicker wetting hilerious!
Louise Rennison does it again! This woman knows exactley what every teenage girl wants to read, as well as their mother, sisters, aunts, cousins, the entire friend population which she may have. This book is most likely the best to date. I have never laughed so much in my entire life, let alone wet my knickers laughing. Some of the thrases which Georgia Nicolson uses are very catching, believe me, i cant stop saying 'in the name of o'reilly's pantiehose'. I reckomend this book to every female and maybe male, on this planet.
A WICKED READ!
Ok, here goes...so,you want an enjoyable novel, not too enduring, a great laugh, and you want it to grip you throughout...-what are you waiting for? BUY/GET this book! She's back alright, with a slam-dunkin' new read; Knocked out by my nunga nungas.
Hilariously funny! Every girl should read it!
I really enjoyed this and I couldn't stop laughing!
This is the diary of Georgia Nicolson. It contains entries about her family, friends, boys, school, grandparents, parties, enemies and many other things. It is v. funny, and quite a lot like a modern-day female Adrian Mole. Amazing. For ages of about 12-16.
