Book Description
After queuing up at the cakeshop of luuurve for ages, I have accidentally bought two cakes.
And I am sitting in a bush.
Georgia thought her heartbreak-osity troubles were over when Masimo announced that he wanted to be her one and only. But just as she hits Swoon City, Robbie, the original Sex God, shows up. How in the world has Georgia accidentally acquired two Sex Gods?
Before Georgia can decide what to do next, she must figure out what Robbie's intentions are—and if his sudden re-appearance changes her mind about Masimo. And as much as she wants to turn to Dave the Laugh for help, he's another romantic thorn (and prospective snoggee) in her side. Will Georgia ever get off the rack of love once and for all?

NOW!
A Hilarious book!.......2007-09-23
Love Is A Many Trousered Thing is an absolutely hilarious book.
Its about a young girl called Georgia Nicolson who is in a state of confusedness about her friends and family.
I found it funny because her life is normal and she just makes it more complicated than it has to be.
Good Old Georgia!.......2007-09-09
Once again we get to read about the brilliance of Georgia, and once again it ends too soon. Whens the next one?
another great installment.......2007-09-07
The Georgia Nicolson series is full of hilarious moments and just a really good fun read. Each book in the series just keeps getting better and I can't wait for the ninth in the series!
Falling about laughing.......2007-09-05
I don't understand all these other reviewers, giving what amounts to rave reviews, but withholding that fifth star. If there were six stars to give, I would give them.
There are passages in this book that made me laugh so hard I could scarcely breathe. Georgia is never dull for even one single second; how many books can you say that about? My only grumble is that the next book won't be out for aaaaaaaaaaaaages. In the meanwhile I will no doubt re-read the complete set I have - several times! I only wish there were more writers as good as Louise Rennison.

She has a precocious 3-year-old sister who tends to leave wet nappies at the foot of her bed, an insane cat who is prone to leg-shredding "Call of the Wild" episodes, and embarrassing parents who make her want to escape to Stonehenge and dance with the Druids. No wonder 14-year-old Georgia Nicolson laments, "Honestly, what is the point?" A Bridget Jones for the younger set, Georgia records the momentous events of her life--and they are all momentous--in her diary, which serves as a truly hilarious account of what it means to be a modern girl on the cusp of womanhood. No matter that her particular story takes place in England, the account of her experiences rings true across the ocean (and besides, "Georgia's Glossary" swiftly eradicates any language barriers).
The author, Louise Rennison, is a British comedy writer and it shows. Whether Georgia is dealing with wearing a bra ("OK, it's a bit on the loose side and does ride up round my neck if I run for the bus"), pondering kissing and how to know which way to turn your head ("You don't want to be bobbing around like pigeons for hours"), or managing the results of an overzealous eyebrow-plucking episode ("Obviously, now I have to stay in forever"), she always cracks us up. Georgia struggles with the myriad issues facing teen girls--boys, of course being at the forefront--but she does it with such humor and honesty it almost seems like a good time. This refreshingly funny book is ripe for a sequel, which readers will await in droves. (Ages 11 and older). --Brangien Davis
Book Description
Angus:
My mixed-breed cat, half domestic tabby, half Scottish wildcat. The size of a small Labrador, only mad.
Thongs:
Stupid underwear. What's the point of them, anyway? They just go up your bum, as far as I can tell.
Full-Frontal Snogging:
Kissing with all the trimmings, lip to lip, open mouth, tongues ... everything.
Her dad's got the mentality of a Teletubby (only not so developed). Her cat, Angus, is trying to eat the poodle next door. And her best friend thinks she looks like an alien -- just because she accidentally shaved off her eyebrows. Ergghhhlack. Still, add a little boy-stalking, teacher-baiting, and full-frontal snogging with a Sex God, and Georgia's year just might turn out to be the most fabbitty fab fab ever!
Customer Reviews:
Hilarious! It will make you laugh out loud. I couldn't read it in public........2007-08-31
I really enjoyed this book! It was so entertaining and funny to read. I think all teenage girls should read it because it is easy to relate to. Georgia is a funny, sarcastic teenager stuck on the 'racks of love' and with her loyal cat and drooling younger sister, journeys into the world of perverted boys, nosy dads and inch upon inch of lip gloss. Written as a dairy, it really portrays what life for a teenage girl in England during the early 80's might have been like (with or without Wet Lindsay). It's a younger Bridget Jones, ready to face England, one high heeled boot at a time.
GEORGIA NICOLSON RULES!!!.......2007-08-06
My! I cannot get tired of Georgia Nicolson's quirky adventures. She's nuts and her snogging lessons even more so. I guess, we all know what it's to fall for a sex god and doing the stupidest things ever. And this girl is queen of stupid! Stupid in a nice and hilarious way, btw.
LOBE, LOBE, LOBE this book. (No, this is not a spelling error. Read the book and find out). Feel cranky? Read this. Feel sad? Read this. You'll laugh like a loon because Georgia and her family and her friends are quite the colorful ones. Angus is a big favorite. I wish I had a beast like that myself.
Snogging and Laughing, Laughing and Snogging.......2007-07-19
The title may sound ... freakish ... to say the least, but this book is hilarious! Georgia is so out-of-the-box, but still, so much like me. Good to know I'm not the only one who thought my eyebrows were too bushy and decided to handle them myself. =)
Georgia is hilarious!! Really, I'm talking actual laugh-out-loud stuff. Even though she's across the sea from me, I couldn't feel closer to her.

On the Bright Side, I am Now the Girlfriend of a Sex God by Louise Rennison
Read on!
Hilarious---10 thumbs up.......2007-06-08
"What an unbelievably BRILLIANT night.
Double cool with knobs.
Robbie KISSED me.
The Sex God has landed."
Georgia Nicolson is your normal English teenager. But, when she meets Robby, the Sex God, her life goes crazy. Georgia tries so hard to get the Sex God to notice her, but she soon realizes Robbie has a girlfriend, "wet" Lindsey. After some stalker-like investigation she finds out that Lindsey seems to like Robbie much more then Robbie ever liked her. So, Georgia tries to convince Robbie how desperate Lindsey is and she succeeds. The Sex God landed. Georgia secretly dates Robbie, but her parents soon inform her that she will be moving to New Zealand. The book ends abruptly, leaving the reader on their toes asking for more. Angus, Thongs and Full-Frontal Snogging by Louise Rennison is a very entertaining and creative book about a desperate teenager and her odd life.
The vocabulary in this book is very different from American words, but if you ever get confused there is a glossary in the back. Georgia uses words such a "wet" meaning nerdy, or words such as "fringe" meaning bangs. These different words make the book more believable and much more interesting.
The characters in this book are very interesting. Like desperate Georgia Nicolson and of course her cat Angus, make the book ten times funnier. For instance, for a costume party she dressed up as a stuffed olive, and so many things went wrong. First, her cat had a "Call of the Wild" episode, and attacked her costume. Then, she could barely make it in to the car, so her father drove next to her as she walked to the party. Last, people laughed at her then ignored her. She didn't have a very good time at that party.
The way the book was written in diary form, including date, time, and other such information, was another good aspect of the book. When Georgia is wondering something she seems to write like every other minute. It makes the book even funnier. Also since it was written in journal form it is easier to read.
Angus, Thongs and Full-Frontal Snogging by Louise Rennison was an interesting, entertaining, and hilarious book about an unusual girl and her life. I recommend this book to teenagers or anyone else who wants a good laugh. After you read this book, make sure to keep reading to find out what happens next.

Don't expect much, and you won't be disappointed..........2007-05-20
Conversely to almost everyone else here, I read this book on recommendation from my mother. I didn't expect to like it much, and for the first twenty pages I couldn't stand the narrator, but this book grew on me and I must admit that I quite enjoyed it.
People have been saying that they enjoyed or didn't enjoy this book because of the narrator, and I would have to agree. Whether or not you relate to Georgia, you have to admit that there are girls like her. The entire time I was reading this book, I was amazed by how Ms. Rennison had seemed to borrow the thoughts of some of the shallower people I know, all whom I could see doing all of the things that Georgia does (minus the hilarious cat and younger sister, of course). And no one can say that they haven't shared at least a few thoughts with this narrator at one time or another!
I understand where people are going when they say that this book is crude and such, but I would like parents to take a few minutes to acknowledge that their children have already been exposed to most of what Georgia writes about. If you are going to shelter them from a relatable book that really isn't too explicit, then where are they going to learn about these things that offend you, besides through experience? If you are not comfortable reading about them, then are you really comfortable talking about them? Just because you could not enjoy a book doesn't make it a bad book.
Basically, this is an enjoyable, thoughtless, mostly humorous book that is easy to pick up and put down whenever the mood strikes you. It is certainly a chick lit, but worlds more palatable than Meg Cabot's Princess Diaries and the like. It is written by an English author, so it does have English slang, but there is a glossary at the back for any really confusing words.

Away Laughing on a Fast Camel review.......2007-04-25
Away Laughing on a Fast Camel is the fifth book in the Georgia Nicholson series. Georgia, a British teenager full of gorgeosity and attitude continues the cunning chronicles that are her diaries, full of red-bottom-osity, love-stricken cats, and a tres mad toddler. On top of all that, Georgia's love interest, the lead singer of the "Stiff Dylans", Robbie, (aka the Sex God) is off to Kiwi-a-go-go land, and Georgia's got the Cosmic Horn for their new singer, Masimo.
Libby, Georgia's toddler sister, is quite literally mad. One minute she's trying to kiss you, the next she's hitting you and calling you "cheeky monkey". You never know what's going to happen with that crazy bugger whether she's snuggling a turnip or running around in the nuddy-pants. I love the absolutely outrageous antics she gets up to, and it's always laugh out loud hilarious.
I totally recommend this book for girls in their teenage years. Some topics may be too awkward for younger girls. I love this book because there's a laugh on every page. Also, it's a great source for outrageous British slang. Georgia is always on a wacky adventure, so you can never put it down or else you will have tres snog withdrawel. This book is fabbity-fab-fab and you won't be able to read it just once!!
True Confessions of Georgia Nicolson is FAB!.......2007-01-20
I love these books. I started getting them on book on tape at the library and I enjoy them sooo much. I really want to get them at the book store so that I can read them over and over again!
Away Laughing on a Fast Camel.......2006-11-30
While S.G.(Robbie) is off in Kiwi-a-gogo,to snog the local sheep, Georgia is left on her all aloney, on her owney! But never fear, a new, and BETTER S.G. is on his way! And this one has an Italian accent! Eith Georgia, who knows what could go wrong? Oh, yeah! EVERYTHING! With Dave the laugh coaching her along, this is one of the funniest books in the searies!
Another entry in the fabbity-fab life of Georgia Nicolson.......2006-10-29
With the Sex God away in Kiwi-a goo-goo land snogging marsupials and only writing to Georgia about thermal activity, Georgia is fully into her sadosity phase. That is until the new gorgy singer for the Stiff Dylans shows up. Suffering from a flash return of red bottomisity Georgia pulls out all the stops to snare the Sex Meister. Unfortunately this includes having her eyelids accidentally glue together with her boy entrancers at a most inopportune moment. Lucky for Georgia she always can turn to her Master of the Horn instructor, Dave the Laugh for a bit of advice (and a happy round of snogging).
The more I read of Georgia Nicolson's adventures the more I find myself chuckling. I did miss Angus' input a little, but the parts featuring the new little addition to the family in the form of Angus' cross-eyed offspring made up for it. I thoroughly enjoyed this story and am anxious to see what will happen to Georgia when she reaches Hamburger-a-goo-goo land in the next book.
An okay book, not exciting........2006-10-21
Away Laughing on a Fast Camel
By Louise Rennison
Realistic Fiction
This book, Away Laughing on a Fast Camel, is a story about the feelings and thoughts of a girl named Georgia Nicholson, who lives in Britain. She has a crazy family consisting of a mom a dad and a 3-year-old sister. Georgia seems not to get along with her family for the most part, and relies a lot on her friends. The book states all of her feelings toward school, family, friends, and the world. As Georgia grows into adolescence, hormones often take over and make for a funny scene more than once as the story progresses. In this book, Georgia is writing a diary. Diary form fits this story very well because the author can go into more detail about Georgia's feelings than if it was told in 3rd person. The journal entries are entered at completely random times, Georgia might write 10 days in a row, and then not write another for a week or so. That, I think was my only problem with the authors writing style. Because of the randomness of the entry time, if I missed one or two dates, I might think it was September and it would turn out to be November. I wish the author had written in a more clear, organized way. I didn't enjoy this book a ton, but I liked it okay. I feel like the plot is not complex enough to captivate the reader, or grab their attention. In the previous books in this series, a lot went on and a new problem occurred each time. In this novel however, I was often bored and felt like many pages were there just to make the book longer. Over all, I'd give this book, three and a half stars.

Customer Reviews:
Knocked Out!!.......2007-04-05
"Knocked out by my Nunga-Nungas" is a histerical book about girls, guys, teenagers in gerneral, gossip, Georgia's, the main character's, family, and her cat, Angus. Georgia Nicholson is a normal teenage girl who has a "sex god", Robbie, as a boyfriend and she has a hard time being faithful to him even though she is totally obsessed with him. Georgia's red botomosity keeps her ending up locking lips with Dave the Laugh, her ex-boyfriend, who never fully got over Georgia. Also, her cat, Angus, fallsin love with the kitten Naomi from across the stree, and has to get his trouser snake removed, which Georgia doesn't agree with.
My favotirte part of this book is when Georgia goes to one of the Stiff Dylans conert anddances in front of Dom's dad because she thought he was a talent scout. This is also the first time Georgia gets mad at Robbie for blowing her off for wet Lindsey. Shortly after that, Georgia kisses Dave the Laugh. This is my favorite part because the author describes what happens, like Georgia's dancing so well that I feel lke I was there.
I deffinetely recommend this book, but mostly to girls because it's about girl sistuations and gossip. Also, if you have read other books in the Geogia Nicholson series I recommend reading this book "Knocked out by My Nunga-Nungas" has been my favorite book in the series yet! If you like girly, funny books, then this is the book for you. In conclusion, I really hope I persuaded you to read this great book full of hilariosity.
Tiresome.......2005-11-27
The first book was refreshing and funny, soured only by continous lesbian bashing. The second book was decidedly less so, and by this third installment, I am personally quite sick of listening to materialistic, shallow and self-centered Brit Georgia Nicholson whine about her parents, friends, and school. Even the subplot - Angus' courting of the neighbors' cat is so out of control Georgia's dad threatens to have him spayed - is not funny.
In Knocked Out, Georgia, having recently hooked up with an older Sex God, is abducted by her parents on a family vacation to Scotland, which she refers to as Och Aye land and insults with her usual brand of dramatic sarcasm. Upon her return, she cheats on her new boyfriend by snogging the guy she used as bait to make the first boyfriend jealous, and debates her decision to date a hot but unavailable older guy versus a funny available boy who obviously likes her IN SPITE of the fact she blatantly used him in the last book. When Dave the Laugh tells her she has to choose, she is in a quandary for all of a DAY before deciding she will find a way to have both. UGH. She is a thoroughly despicable character. Still, the Printz award stamp on book one and the fact that the prequels were popular will make this a likely choice for most libraries.

This is the third book in the series, and it is just as good as the others. :)
knocked out by my..........2005-08-11
Georgia is back!!!! In this fabulous installment of the GN series Georgia must decide if she can fight off he red botomosity and resist Dave the Laugh (see book in series before this for info on Dave). Also in the book Georgia has to go to Scotland (Och Aye land) and some odd things happen there. Wonderfully funny and is the kind of book to read to cheer yourself up!!
Just As Good!.......2005-07-04
Fourteen year old Georgia is with Robbie again, but as soon as they get back together her family wants to go on a trip to Scotland, and she must go too. Towards the end is a bit of a suprise, a conflict with Robbie is staying with him right or not?

Book Description
On the rack of romance. And also in the oven of luuurve.
Woe is Georgia: Dave the Laugh has declared his love for her (at least she thinks he was talking about her), and she has finally given Masimo an ultimatum to be her one and only and he has to think about it. And will she ever be able to stop thinking about the Sex God plucking his guitar strings of loveosity?

I'm 23 and I still Laugh out loud.......2007-06-27
I started reading this series a few years ago and they are the laugh out loud kind of funny. I've found myself sitting there by myself reading and laughing.
Let's Go Down the Disco... Again!.......2007-03-14
In the seventh installment of the Georgia Nicolson series, she's back again, and her list of potential boyfriends is growing. Georgia is stuck between a rock and a hard place when her latest crush, Masimo says he'll get back to her in a week's time, telling her if he wants them to be "boyfriend" and "girlfriend". The book gets off to a slower start than Rennison's 6 other Georgia books, because it mostly involves Georgia waiting restlessly for Masimo's response. However, soon it picks up again as Georgia's relationship with Dave the Laugh moves into new territory, and her home life becomes more and more ridiculously hilarious. Part of what makes these books so great is the over exaggeration of everyday life. No teacher's could be possibly be as clueless or cruel as those at Stalag 14, and no little sister could be as crazy or clever as Libby, but somehow Rennison makes it seem like everything in Georgia's like is full blown-from her ever changing crushes, to her crazy friend Jas, to her 3 hour makeup application.
The book stays true to the other 6 novels of the same series by combining humor with actual things that teenage girls do and think about. At points Rennison gets carried away with the sillyness, (ie, the Viking Wedding),but all in all it keeps the reader interested.
The reader feels for Georgia as she struggles with unreturned love towards goregous and/or funny boys; and jealousy towards friends,
but at the same time the reader can't help but laugh at her because of the way Rennison has of making any situation she's in humourous.
This book in particulary, being the last in the series, has the unfortunate job of tying up any loose ends. Georgia's first love Robby, AKA the Sex God returns at the end from "Kiwi-a-Gogo", and leaves the reader hanging. The reader is also left hanging by the way things end with Dave the Laugh, who is undoubtadly the favorite of the "boys" Georgia has, and is involved with.
If you want a serious read, then this book, or the other 6, are NOT for you. But, if you're looking for an easy, hilarious and captivating beach read, then it definetly is; you have to however be, or have recently been, a teenage girl. Startled by his Furry Shorts is not THE best of the series, but it's still really enjoyable.
Laughing Out Loud.......2006-11-26
Georgia is once again in the oven of luurve, the bakery of pain, the cakeshop of agony...you get the picture...due to her spontaneous ultimatum to Masimo. As Georgia waits with impatientocity for Masimo's answer she continues through her tortuous lessons at Stalag Fourteen, rehearsals of MacUseless, the forehead staring campaign against Wet Lindsey who is sporting new octopus tentacles in the form of hair extensions, hopping firsters and sneak attacks by Angus and Gordy.
This most recent entry in the Confessions of Georgia Nicolson does not fail to be var, var amusant. The conflagration on the final night of MacUseless was particularly laughable. A couple other mentions is that one cannot help but feel bad for Dave the Laugh as it appears he is trying quite hard to just be "mates" with Georgia who just doesn't seem to get what's going on with him and the fact that if I were Georgia I would NEVER forgive Spazzy Jazzy for neglecting her status as Radio Jas and keeping the secret that she did at the end of the story. All in all this book has left me on the rack of curiosity as to what will happen in the upcoming book. Oh, and I can't wait to read about the Viking nuptuals and how furry shorts fit in to it.
Courtesy of Teens Read Too.......2006-10-11
Georgia Nicholson is at it again in the newest installment of Louise Rennison's hilarious series about the trials and tribulations of a lovelorn British high school girl. STARTLED BY HIS FURRY SHORTS does not disappoint readers who have grown to love the quirky Georgia, her eccentric family, and her Ace Gang of best buddies.
As STARTLED opens, our poor heroine finds herself, "On the rack of romance. And also in the oven of luurve." (That's 'love' for those of you who are new to Georgia-speak.) She is waiting to hear from her Italian Stallion almost-boyfriend, to whom she had given an ultimatum. He must either be exclusive to her, or they may never share another romantic evening under the stars together. Needless to say, she's not entirely sure she did the right thing with Masimo. After all, what if he comes back with the wrong answer?
But while Georgia wants the hunky Italian-American to be faithful to her, she's having a little trouble in that department herself. She's not completely over her first love, Robbie, who left her to "snog with marsupials" in New Zealand. And her friend, Dave the Laugh, appears to have a crush on Georgia, but she has no idea how to handle it.
As with the other Georgia Nicholson novels, I found myself laughing out loud as I turned the pages. Everyone in this series is interesting and well crafted. Sure, Georgia herself is shallow, but she's also funny and (usually) kind and easy to relate to. There are even some villains (i.e. Wet Lindsay and Astonishingly Dim Monica) who readers can love to hate.
The glossary at the end of the book was helpful as always in deciphering unfamiliar British terms, although it was often unclear whether these terms were really unique to Britain or if they were just unique to author Louise Rennison's fertile imagination.
Pick up a copy of STARTLED BY HIS FURRY SHORTS and laugh yourself silly.

Let's go down the disco!.......2006-07-29
In this, the seventh book of the Georgia Nicholson series, Georgia finds herself in "the oven of luuurve" once again. At the end of the last book, Then He Ate My Boy Entrancers, Georgia had given the Italian Stallion, a.k.a. Masimo, an ultimatum: to be an exclusive couple.
Throughout this book, Georgia awaits her answer and has to deal with the devastating idea of only being "mates" with Masimo. Will she be able to live if he picks Wet Lindsay over her? And what exactly did Dave the Laugh mean when he said that they were meant for each other?
Along the way, Georgia has to put up with her little sister, Libby, who is constantly hiding things in her bed, and her psycho cats, Angus and Gordy, who attack at random. That doesn't even begin to explain the horrors of dealing with school at Stalag 14. Jas, Georgia's "bestest pally", doesn't seem to be very understanding and the rest of the Ace Gang are helping to plan a Viking Wedding for RoRo and Sven, being sure to perfect their new Viking "Let's go down the disco" dance, complete with bison horns. Will Masimo and Georgia end up together? Will she ever snog anyone again?
A must-read for fans of the series, this book is laugh out loud funny and, as Georgia would say, "full of hilariosity".
*I submitted this book review to be published in the ALAN Review. :) Look for it in the Spring/Summer 2006 Issue.

Customer Reviews:
She's maaaaaaaad!.......2007-06-10
The Georgia Nicolson character IS truly MAAAAAAAAAD and this makes for some really good laughs. Actually, I laughed myself so hard I was literally crying and had to hold my belly. Boy Entrancers is hilarious. I couldn't stop laughing in a long while!
It is what it is - too funny!.......2007-02-27
Oh, how clever Louise Rennison is. This hilarious novel reminds me a bit of a stand-up comedian's routine with a plot - of sorts. English teenager, Georgia, (the main character) has her own combination of slang and made up alterations of words that take a bit of getting used to at first. But her descriptions of events, friends, her own family, and life in general are so fast, funny, and furious, I could hardly stop laughing. Of course, it's all very silly, and Georgia comes across as perhaps a little to obsessed with snogging boys, or a bit too dim-witted at times, but then maybe not. In any event, if you like novels that are clearly intended to make you laugh, and you aren't looking for any deep messages except that there is always humor to be found in the strange and sometimes unbelieveably wacky things teenagers do, then this book is for you. Highly recommended for kids over 13 and anyone else who enjoys a good laugh.
More of the good stuff.......2007-01-10
another amusing Georgia Nicholson story -- nothing too new, but hilariously funny as always
READ THIS BOOK.......2006-09-26
America and London are two different worlds. The people speak differently, eat differently, and drive on different sides of the road. So it's a big transition when someone from either country goes to visit the other one. Then He Ate my Boy Enrancers, by Louise Rennison, is the sixth in the Georgia Nicolson Series, which was kicked off by Angus, Thongs, and Full-Frontal Snogging.. In this teen-fiction story, British 16 year-old Georgia Nicolson travels to America. She's not exactly what you call a typical teenager, as she makes up creative words, such as "hamburger-a-gogo land" (America), and loves getting into trouble. Despite her outgoing and comical personality, Georgia may have trouble keeping her wacky family in line. Vati, her loony father, has Georgia begging him not to wear his overalls in public. There is also Mutti, (her mother), and Uncle Eddie, who humiliate her at any given moment. Her 4-year old sister, Libby, is just as crazy as all the rest of them and emphatically loves to sing, er, interesting songs. Thank god Georgia's best friend, Jas, is also tagging along. She may regularly complain about missing her boyfriend and have annoying bangs, but she is the sanest person accompanying Georgia on this trip. The good news is, Masimo, gorgeous Italian-American singer of the band, The Stiff Dylans and Georgia's nearly boyfriend, is visiting his family in Manhattan. He thinks Georgia is still back in London, so imagine his expression when she pops up out of nowhere and says hello! This, however, may be a bit more difficult to achieve then Georgia pictured......
Georgia and her friends were hysterical! I couldn't stop laughing the entire time I was reading. The language and expressions used in this novel were an original blend of British slang and creatively made-up words. I also found that the characters were all well-developed, and of course, hilarious. I appreciate the way Rennison put together a diverse cast of characters. Their personalities were all varied and unique. I especially liked Georgia's cats, Angus and Gordy. They were the most psychotic animals I have ever heard of, and I loved to read about their comedic antics. They were relentlessly torturing the poodles next door and decimating Georgia's stockings. I think it was amusing how nobody had any control over them whatsoever.
Furthermore, you could always powerfully hear Georgia's voice. She sounded like an actual 16-year old. I felt like I was there with Georgia in every situation, comprehending every thought that went through her head. I recommend this book to fans of teen-fiction authors that incorporate comedy into their stories. Abstain from reading this book in public areas, as sudden explosive laughter is imminent!
Then He Ate my Boy Entrancers.......2006-05-16
One of the hilarious tales of the British teenager, Georgia Nicolson, est tres amusant. Now that the "love god" is "out of her thoughts, and never to return", there is a new man on her mind. The Itallion Stallion, Masimo. Georgia is very impatient about his return from "Hamburger-a-go-go"(America), and is extatic when her family informs her that this is their new destination for vacation.
The sixth story of the Confessions of Georgia Nicolson is quite funny. I was not surprised it was though. The whole series is. I say, more prays for Louise Rennison, for creating the book that made tears stream down my face with laughter. The story is appropriate for, preferably, the "young adults" out there. The plot was brilliant and so were the characters. Bring on the next story!

Fourteen-year-old Georgia Nicolson is back in British author Louise Rennison's irreverent, laugh-out-loud sequel to the Michael L. Printz Honor Book Angus, Thongs, and Full-Frontal Snogging. Written in diary form, these truly hilarious books chronicle the often minute-by-minute, very dramatic, and significant flip-flops of a teenager's psyche.

My eyes are all swollen up like mice eyes from crying. Even my nose is swollen. It's not small at the best of times, but now it looks like I've got three cheeks. Marvelous. Thank you, God.

I'll never get over this.
9:10 p.m.
Time goes very slowly when you're suicidal.
What tragedy has her so distraught? Her parents have told her she's moving to New Zealand just when she's managed to snog (kiss--look it up in the glossary) the SG (Sex God, a.k.a Robbie). This is of course not the only source of drama in Georgia's eventful life. Her half Scottish wildcat, Angus, who is the size of a small Labrador, herds the poodles next door and terrorizes the neighborhood. Her little sister, Libby, who is slightly mad, stores her "pooey knickers" and her scuba-diving Barbie doll in Georgia's bed. Her mother (from whom she inherited her orangutan eyebrow gene and possibly her "gigantic basoomas") is clearly inhabiting Earth solely to make her life miserable, and even her best friend Jas is "half girl, half turnip."
Despite the fact that she's spared from going to "Kiwi-a-gogo land," things don't get much better for Georgia. She's suspended for a childish prank right before her dad returns from New Zealand, she falls in love with the SG who dumps her for being too young, and Dave, the "red-herring" boyfriend she's using to make the SG jealous calls her a "heartless whatsit." And, she continues, "the spot on my bum is probably a boil. I wonder what Buddha would do now?" Rennison's comedic timing is brilliant. Adolescent angst ("I hope I am not driven to the brink of madness by grief") vanishes less than an hour later ("Angus can fetch sticks!!!") and sometimes even sooner. (Warning: Do not read this book while riding a train or bus unless you don't care what people think of intermittent explosive laughter. Seriously.) (Ages 12 and older) --Karin Snelson
Book Description
Georgia Nicolson has started dating the Sex God (aka Robbie). So life should be perfect . . . except in Georgia's life, nothing is ever perfect. Her cat, Angus (the size of a small Labrador), is terrorizing the neighborhood. Her sister, Libby (who is slightly mad), hides her pooey knickers at the bottom of Georgia's bed.
Then the Sex God breaks it off because she's too young. It's time for a plan. It's time for a Red Herring. It's time for Georgia to become a "heartless boy magnet!"
Customer Reviews:
Commuting with Georgie.......2007-09-07
I loved it! I loved the fact that she is such a self absorbed teenager - the fact that her sister crawls into bed with all her toys including scuba diving Barbie - the fact that her legs go all gelloid - the fact that her friends are just like her - the fact that every adult has at least one fault - the fact that French toast means talking French while eating eggy toast, but best of all, the fact that I thought just like her when I was a teenager :-) The only bad part was laughing aloud when I was driving - and not wanting it to end when I pulled into my driveway.
On the Brightside, I'm Now the Girlfriend of a Sex God.......2007-06-13
How do you deal with the emotional rollercoaster of catching the Sex God, and then losing him? That's what the main character, Georgia Nicolson, has to try and get through. Georgia is a 14 year old girl living in England (in the present day). The book starts out with Georgia living out her perfect dream. She is he girlfriend of a SEX GOD. But soon, she loses him o her enemy, Wet Lindsey. In an effort to get him back, she starts dating one of the Sex God's friends, David the Laugh. Throughout the confusion of that she has to deal with her poodle attacking cat, her (married) mother flirting with Dr. "George Clooney", and some definitely air-headed friends.
This is my favorite book I have ever read. But, I do have a favorite part in particular. You have to understand though, I had been laid over in the Kansas City Airport for 6 hours and I was completely sleep deprived. Anyways, my favorite part is when Georgia described how her little sister was sitting on her lap and she "let off the smelliest, loudest fart known to humanity. It came out of her bum-oly with such force that she lifted off my knee. Like a hovercraft".
After reading this book, it is clear to see that the main idea of this book is just learning how to deal with growing up and moving past the obstacles that life throws at you. You have to make all the wrong choices to finally see why the good choice is the best choice.
I loved how the problems Georgia went through were not only hysterical, but could also be recognized by all. The only thing that I would change about the book would be the format. I don't really like the whole diary-entry format. I believe that girls between the ages of 11-17 should read this book. They would relate to the trials and triumphs of Georgia the best.
On the Bright Side, I'm now the Girlfriend of a Sex God:further confessions of Georgia Nicolson.......2007-04-25
On the Bright Side, I'm now the Girlfriend of a Sex God:further confessions of Georgia Nicolson is a book about a teenager named Georgia Nicolson. This book is her diary in which she writes exactly how she feels. Georgia has a rather large cat, Angus, a bestfriend who overly obsesses over her boyfriend Tom, and a Sex God (a.k.a Robbie Tom's older brother). All in all Georgia lives an exciting life which makes for a terrific book.
My favorite part of this book is when Georgia is running out to the field and she just lets everything go. She wasn't worrying about how her nose looked or who could see her. I loved this part because she was finally just being herself. Also, she didn't care about what people thought about her anymore.
I would recommend this book for anyone who is looking for a good laugh. However, if you're looking to read a little at a time I wouldnt read this book. This book is the kind of book that once you start reading you can't stop. It is a hilarious teenager reality and no one can go wrong by choosing this book.
Good Teen Lit.......2007-04-25
Pretty much the same basic premiss as _Angus_ but spanning a shorter period of time. I do like how the books aren't just about Georgia and her SG (that's sex god to the rest of us) but shows how she deals with her friends and her family. I still hope I wasn't like her when I was growing up though.
another fun bit of reading.......2007-04-25
Very enjoyable--picks up right after the first book, same problems are haunting our lovely heroine, Georgia: Robbie being difficult about her age, Jas being completely sucked into her boyfriend Tom, her parents being weird, her mad little sister and now Angus is love sick!
Too funny and too much fun--now if only the library would get the third one in so I could read it too. Still pretty tame language, etc. Suitable for a 14 year old (as that's hold old Georgia is) there is some teen related issues, but they are dealt with like a standard 14 year old--making fun of them.
Totally fun read.

Georgia Nicolson is a blast!.......2007-07-22
Georgia Nicolson has become one of my favorite nutty characters. I love the books but this is not the best in the series. Yet it is hilarious, tremendously funny and it is impossible to have a bad day with the looney characters and crazy stories Louise Rennison brings to life. I am completely crazy about Angus, that wild and impossible cat.
Dancing in my Nuddy-Pants.......2007-05-23
Georgia is back aqain! This series is hilarious! In this book Georgia and Robbie are still together, but Robbie isn't around that much. He's on tour with his band, The Stiff Dylans, in Hamburger-a-go-go-land, a.k.a the United States. Georgia is stuck in Great Britain. Georgia's family is still totally embarrasing, but they are really funny. You should definitely read this book and the rest of the series. These books have something funny written on every page. I couldn't put it down!
Dancing In My Nuddy-Pants.......2006-11-01
I read the book Dancing In My Nuddy Pants, by Louise Rennison. This book is about a girl named Georgia Nicholson. She lives in England with her mom, dad, little sister Libby, and oddly large cat named Angus. This story is about the life of a normal teenage girl living in England.
There were many good parts in this book, but if I had to choose a favorite then I'd choose the time when she tripped "Elvis" with a wheelbarrow. Once Georgia was outside of "Elvis`" hut and she decided to pull a brutally mean joke on him. She placed a wheelbarrow outside of his hut and then she went to his window and screamed frantically like something was wrong. This caused "Elvis" too run out his door and trip over the wheelbarrow that Georgia put there, but Georgia got what she deserved and was suspended for a while.
I've read many books but Dancing In My Nuddy Pants was just a book that I could not put down. If you are seeking a hilarious book that you will love then I highly suggest reading this book. Georgia taught me things that I should never do, and so things that I should do. If this sounds interesting you might also want to read the first too, and then you can get this book to resume with the tale of Georgia Nicholson. But don't be sad when it's over because there are 7 books in this series.
Georgia is back.......2005-10-06
Georgia is back with another astonishing sequel, Dancing in My Nuddy Pants. You will not be disappointed in this hilarious come back. If you are in grades 7-9 you will love the humor of this self-absorbed teen. In this novel there aren't chapters there are diary entries. My favorite diary entire is the one that talks about the neighbor's cat getting pregnant. The neighbors came over and accused Georgia's cat. Georgia's dad is hilarious and says many hilarious things about it. This is a pretty good novel except for the fact that is very confusing. She is British and speaks some British in the book. It's pretty hard to understand but besides that it is a hilarious and very exciting book.
dancing naked?? funny.......2005-08-11
Again Georgia is back. She is still having trouble with her red bottom but she is learning to cope with it. She learns the way of the horn (how much you fancy someone) and decides she has the general horn for Dave the L. (so that explains why she keeps snogging him on accident J). She is still going out with Robbie though and later in the story to Georgia's dismay it is reviled that Robbie must go to Australia for a year L. I am so glad that there is a sequel to this story because this book leaves some questions unanswered.

Nothing makes me laugh harder........2007-02-24
I first met Georgia when I was a freshman in high school. She was shallow, bubbly, and everything I wasn't--obsessed with boys, looks, and parties. And I absolutely loved her.
my 14 yr old loves these books.......2007-01-27
got em for her for christmas and she devoured them in just a couple of days!
Confessions of Georgia Nicolson.......2006-02-20
I found these books to be light, fluffy, and enormously funny. They're in diary format, but you don't really notice that, and it adds to the charm of the books.
Many people dislike the books because of the light and fluffyness of the books - the lack of plot. These books make me laugh so often (no matter how many times I've read them) that I don't even notice, or care.
So if you're looking for a laugh, I definitely recommend these books.
And if you like these, I recommend Katie Maxwell's Emily Series.

This series is not just for the teenage girls that its marketed for. I am 23 years old and my best friend and I absolutely love Georgia! Maybe its because it reminds us of us growing up, but whenever I read a Georgia book, I just can't stop laughing. Honestly, I laugh so hard that my husband has to come make sure I'm ok. For you parents out there, there aren't any bad words or sex scenes, its just the troubles that a typical, albit slightly crazy, teenage girl goes through. I would recommend this series to anyone.

I absolutely love this series. When i read the first book it was for a book report. I immediately got hooked. Any girl that loves preteen comedy will love this book.

Desperate for further, further confessions of the hilarious protagonist of Angus, Thongs and Full-Frontal Snogging and On the Bright Side, I'm Now the Girlfriend of a Sex God? You're in luck! Just in the nick of time, Georgia Nicolson is back, regaling her reading audience with the trials and tribulations of life as a British teen. Sure, Georgia is thrilled to still be the girlfriend of the Sex God. And yet, Dave the Laugh (her "red herring" ex-beau) isn't looking so bad himself these days. Meanwhile, as our heroine is updating her 1-to-10 snogging scale (6-1/4 is lip nibbling, otherwise known in Georgia-speak as "nip libbling"), her huge misbehaving cat, Angus, is on the verge of a trip to the vet to have his "chimney swept" in an effort to tone down his passion for the neighboring sex kitten, Naomi.
Louise Rennison's outrageously funny series, written in minute-by-minute diary form, perfectly captures the agonizing je ne sais quoi of adolescence in all its schizophrenic glory and comes complete with glossary for Georgia's oh-so-dim American chums. (Ages 12 and older) --Emilie Coulter
Book Description
As I was going out of my bedroom door I remembered my nungas. Perhaps I should take some precautions to keep them under strict control. Maybe bits of Sellotape on the ends of them to keep them from doing anything alarming? I'd like to trust them, but they are very unreliable.
The irrepressible heroine of the Michael L. Printz Honor Book Angus, Thongs and Full-Frontal Snogging is back, and funnier than ever! Georgia has finally landed Robbie the Sex God, but he's never around, and Georgia's ex, Dave the Laugh, is starting to look quite dreamy. Strangely, so does just about every other guy Georgia meets, even the new French teacher.
In this third installment of Georgia's hilarious confessions, Georgia's "red bottomosity" is out of control! Whatever will happen next?

SOOOOOO FUNNY!! .......2005-11-28
This book is so funny! It is absolutly as good as the first two, and not at all boring. Georgia may be self obsorbed and snotty and so on, but that is only part of her charm! If you are tired of depressing serious books that are very deep and meaningful read this. You will never get tired of it! Even after i've read it a zillian times it is still so funny. I laughed through basically the whole book. If you read it and think it is not as good as the other ones, fear not, the fourth is even better! It tkes so little time to read it is worth it even if you hate it. (The content is so not explicat)
Knocked Out By My Nunga Nungas is Awesome.......2005-10-05
This book was in mint condition and in other news rocked the socks off of all the other books I've read and let me tell you I am georgous but a bookworm majorly. I am going to read the whole series. Georgia is frisky, witty and funny +wild. (strangely very similar to her huge cat Angus)
Knocked out by her Humor!.......2004-06-07
I found this book hilarious! It was very well written and very understandable! I have read other reviews from her other books in the series from adults and they dont like it which is why i think that these books are mostly for teenagers. Adults tend to find Georgia rude and disgusting. They dont understand that the books are supposed to be fun and the rudeness is the funny part!
Awesome book!.......2004-05-29
I am a teen like georgia and i just love these books! they are so easy to relate to and are hilarious!!! georgia, along with her many, many thoughts, is crazy, straight-forward, and soo funny. I would recomend this to any other teen girl because i am almost positive they would love it too!
The Gradual Fall Continues ..........2004-05-19
Sadly 'Knocked Out By My Nunga-Nungas' was not only not as good as the first book in the series but not even the second.
Georgias time in Ouch Eye Land was borderline boring - where is that laugh a minuet humor? The story line with the parents is not nearly as interesting as in the past, same with Angus and Libby. Then we get to Jas - she has become highly annoying and stuck up, Im waiting for her and Tom to break up to bring her back to reality. "You have to let Jas rave on or you never get to talk about yourself" how many times have we heared Georgia say that?! And how many times have we un-caringly heared Jas go on? Too many thats for sure.
I did like the Dave The Laugh story line in this one, and most events that happened beyond P.70 were funny. I hope the fourth one doesnt continue the downwards spiral, I would hate to give a Louise Rennison book a 3/5.
