Description

Brilliantly funny, teenage angst author Louise Rennison's fifth book about the confessions of crazy but lovable Georgia Nicolson. Louise is a star on the HarperCollins teenage list.

11.20 a.m.
This is my fabulous life: the Sex God left for Whakatane last month and he has taken my heart with him.
11.25 a.m.
Not literally of course otherwise there would be a big hole in my nunga-nungas.
11.28 a.m.
And also I would be dead. Which quite frankly would be a blessing in disguise.
12.00 p.m.
It is soooo boring being brokenhearted...

...but Georgia doesn't remain brokenhearted for long: frequent snogging extravaganzas with old flame, Dave the Laugh, and the arrival of jelloid-knee-inducing Italian Stallion, Masimo, mean that Georgia has her work cut out to be the composed sex-kitten that she aspires to be.

Follow Georgia's hilarious antics as she desperately muddles her way through teenage life and all that it entails: make-up disasters, rapidly expanding nunga-nungas, school - urgh, unsympathetic friends, highly embarrassing family (and pets) and, of course, BOYS.



About the Author

Louise Rennison was a journalist, comedian and beloved author. In 1999, she introduced Georgia Nicolson to the world with ANGUS THONGS & FULL-FRONTAL SNOGGING - the first in a 10-book series. The book won the Nestle Smarties Book Prize Bronze Award and was adapted for film in 2008. In the same year, Louise was crowned Queen of Teen for the series, and in 2010, was awarded the Roald Dahl Funny Prize for WITHERING TIGHTS - the first in a spin-off following the hysterical misadventures of Georgia's cousin, Tallulah.

Sadly, Louise passed away in 2016 at 64-years-young. She left behind a legion of adoring readers who hold Georgia and the Ace Gang close to their hearts. Her books have been translated into 37 languages and have sold more than 2.6 million copies in the UK. Louise lives on through her cherished character Georgia - who was based on her own teen experiences. In Louise's and Georgia's own words: "He who laughs last, laughs the laughiest."



Reviews

Praise for "...and that's when it fell off in my hand."

Readers will find themselves laughing uncontrollably until their sides hurt, and won't be able to put the book down. Sunday Times

"Hilarious... [Louise Rennison] is queen of the pink-book pack." The Times

"Rennison at her best." Waterstone's Quarterly

Praise for Angus, Thongs and Full-Frontal Snogging:

"Bridget Jones for teenagers - but funnier. Expect Potter-esque queues for the sequel." The Sunday Telegraph

"Don't miss this gem" The Guardian

Praise for other "Georgia" titles:

"Hilarious. Georgia Nicolson's laugh-a-minute narration picks up right where Angus, Thongs and Full-Frontal Snogging left off." Publishers weekly (starred review)

"As fabbity-fab-fab as its predecessor" ALA Booklist (starred review)

"For those who already know and love Georgia, there's only one word necessary: more." Kirkus Reviews

The shipping was just superior

The shipping was just superior; not even one of the books was in contact with the shipping box -anywhere-, not even a corner or the bottom, so all the books arrived in perfect condition. The international shipping took around 2 weeks, so pretty great too.

Found a hard to get book…

Finding a hard to get book on Booksplease and with it not being an over inflated price was great. Ordering was really easy with updates on despatch. The book was packaged well and in great condition. I will certainly use them again.
