Angus, Thongs and Full-Frontal Snogging,
by Louise Rennison (Young Adult)
Angus
is the slightly mad cat of our heroine, Georgia Nicolson, thongs are
perfectly stupid underwear, and full-frontal snogging is kissing with
all the trimmings. With that explanation out of the way, this is the
diary of Georgia Nicolson, an extremely entertaining and funny young
lady, although I doubt she considers her tribulations funny. Angus alone
is enough reason to read this book. His stalking of the neighbors' poodle
and anything else that dares to approach his domain is hysterical. Not
to be outdone, Georgia's attempt at plucking eyebrows, (Georgia abandons
tweezers and tries her father's electric razor), is one of the funniest
episodes I've read. This rollicking romp through adolescence even comes
with a glossary for any terms, like snogging, that might confuse the
American mind.
