Angus, Thongs and Full-Frontal Snogging: Confessions of Georgia Nicolson

Renninson, L. (1999).  Angus, Thongs and Full-Frontal Snogging:  Confessions of Georgia Nicolson.    

            New York, NY:  HarperCollins Children’s Books.

Georgia is really obsessed about being with a boy.  She goes with some guy to practice kissing.  Later, she allows herself to be touched by Mark, who helps himself to some boob while kissing her.  She doesn’t know what to do and allows it.  She continues to want guys and their attention like Robbie.  She has beauty rituals and tries to do yoga and simply wants to figure out what boys want.  She enters the world of dating and kissing and talking to boys.   Just when things turn her way and Robbie want to try and see how it goes with them, and she sees summer love, she is told she is leaving the country.  I liked how the book had a glossary which helped me figure out what some of the slogans really meant.
