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?
Vair, vair funny! Once again, I am away laughing on a fast camel from reading about the hilarous antics of Georgia. This 7th book in the series does not disappoint, and leaves the reader wanting more. Ohm the hilariosity of it all! I must go down to the disco for some viking disco dancing now!
book The book came in excellent timing. I had originally ordered this product from another company, and it still hadn't shipped a month after i had ordered it.
HILARIOUS this book is HILARIOUS! overly immature? yes but still worth it because it will make you laugh till you cry or pee or both
I'm 23 and I still Laugh out loud 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! 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.
