Rennison, Louise. Angus, Thongs and Full Frontal Snogging: Confessions of Georgia Nicolson. New York: HarperTempest, 1999.
This is the kind of book I would read in the bathroom if my family came to visit. Nancy Pearl calls this one of the best books for teens. Last time I checked I was this side of middle aged. Certainly decades beyond teenager. Nevertheless, it was on the list so I read…in two days. Here are my favorite lines:
“My dad has the mentality of a Teletubby only not so developed” (p.13).
“I wonder how old he is? I must become more mature quickly. I’ll start tomorrow” (p. 50)
“His Mick Jagger impersonation didn’t stop at the lips” (p. 123).
Then there’s the commentary on yoga, being Buddhist and the (gross) idea of coming back as a bug. Despite being tagged as something “teenager” I found it humorous. After all, I was once a teen myself…I think.
BookLust Twist: From More Book Lust in the chapter “Best for Teens” (p.25).

that certainly is one book i never thought you would read. glad you liked it.
I think the thing that caught my attention was the cat on the cover, Angus. I knew a cat (ironically named Icky) who would attack me if I didn’t give him enough attention. He was big, fat and very orange. Once, when I tried to run away from him he chased me, clawed his way up my back and bit my head! I can relate to Angus!
