One Mad, Marvy Book!!

This is the 6th book in the Louise Rennison "Confessions of Georgia Nicolson" series. Written in a diary-format you know the exact time of day Georgia is entering her latest thoughts. Georgia Nicolson is a British teenage girl suffering through all the drama and chaos of her age. Whether its boy-drama, friend-drama, family-drama or even cat-drama Georgia handles everything in a very...dramatic fashion, but with a dash of humor of course! Having been "in love" as many times as the average teen girl Georgia finds yet another boy she absolutely MUST be with. Georgia's so-called "luuuurve God" named Masimo is visiting America (or Hamburger-a-gogo land to Georgia) and lucky for Georgia her family will be visiting America as well. We begin by mostly finding out what on earth she should wear when she meet up with "luuuurve God" and how her self-absorbed friend Jas just doesn't care. Georgia's best friend Jas is one of those negative people you find yourself somehow always attracted to and no matter how much Jas drives Georgia absolutely mad, they can't help but be best friends. Although Georgia is accompanied by her embarrassing parents, terribly annoying sister Libby and spazzy best friend Jas she is determined to find her "Italian Stallion" Masimo, even though he is in Manhattan and she is in Memphis... Georgia's adventures in the United States come off as laugh out loud absolutely hilarious. With a glossary in the back of the book to keep you up to date on the latest British slang such as "boy entrancers", "nervy spaz" and "nunga-nungas" you can follow Georgia on all of her outrageous adventures.

Georgia returns in top form...and her love life is more confused than ever!

"Then He Ate My Boy Entrancers" (get your minds out of the gutter, Georgia's talking about fake eyelashes!) breathes new life into a formerly tired series, a sort of Bridget Jones for the tween set. Written with biting humor and supposedly based on the author's school chums, the Georgia Nicolson books capture the lunacy, laughs and just-for-girls-only moments of adolescence: boys and dating, proper makeup application and kissing techniques, and clothes shopping, mostly. Don't be put off by the Young Adult status: these books are wickedly funny and utterly deranged. Consider the following: "Rosie went off to her bedroom. She said, "I am going to be Massimo, so I have to get in the mood for luuurve." She came back five minutes later wearing a false beard with a banana down her jeans. I said, "Why have you got a banana down your jeans?" Rosie said, "It was Sven's suggestion. He said it is representitative of the pant python." Ellen said, "I...er..do you mean like a boy's, er, well..." Rosie said, "Exactomondo, my little pally." Followed by snogging (kissing) practice: "Then Rosie said, "Finally, as you haven't had any snogging practice in a while, try an experimental snog on the back of my leg." What??? Absolutely not, not a snowball's chance in hell. No and three times no... Fifteen minutes later: On my knees snogging the back of Rosie's leg whilst the ace gang watch me." In this, the newest novel, Georgia is more philosophical than usual, as her red-bottomosity is out of hand: she is asked out by Italian Vespa-driving hunk Massimo, receives a letter from her ex-Sex God Robbie, currently in New Zealand (or Kiwi-A-GoGo-Land, as G. calls it), and Dave the Laugh seems to think that she's the one and only girl for him. What's a girl to do? She relies on her friends, the Ace Gang (Jas, Jools, Ro Ro, Ellen), to give her guidance in this most trying of times. G. goes as far as flying to Hamburger-a-gogo land (America) in a desperate attempt to find Massimo, complicated by the fact that she thinks Memphis is next to Manhattan. Once back in Billy Shakespeare land (England), Georgia must decide what her heart is trying to tell her. Also along the way, Georgia nearly manages to ruin her feet in too-small shoes while dressed to impress, is involved in a naughty nuddy-pants dance only wearing bison horns, and mangles the French and German languages at will. Includes a handy glossary translating Britishisms and Georgia-isms, and a mini-CD-ROM with screensavers, audio clips from Louise Rennison (the author), and a Mad-Libs type activity.

I laughed, I cried but mostly I just laughed!

I have read all of books in this particular series. I absolutly love all of them. Not only are the books funny but teenage girls can relate to things that happen to Georgia. "Then He Ate My Boy Entrancers" has to be one of my favorites of the series along with "Angus, Thongs and Full Frontal Snogging" and "On the Bright Side, I'm Now The Girlfriend Of a Sex God". I have never actually laughed out loud while reading but Lousie Rennison has proved that it is possible. I reccomend this book along with the others in the series to everyone, even mothers!

more marvy than the last

This book is just as marvy as the other books in Rennison's series. Old loves are mentioned, present loves deepened, and the red bottom makes a confession. Of course you are left hanging in an even more trecherous way than the last book, but other than that a great addition to the series.

Louise does it again

Wow! Louise didn't disappoint us Georgia Nicolson fans! In the next laugh-a-minute installment in the Confessions of Georgia Nicolson series, Georgia and her best mate Jas head of to Hamburger-a-gogo land (America) to find the Italian Lurrrvve god, Masimo. After a week in America without finding Masimo, Georgia is forced to go back to England by her mutti and vati, where Georgia's hilarious adventures continue! She knows that Masimo is the one for her, but then Robbie the Sex God writes a letter from Kiwi-a-gogo land (New Zealand), and Dave the Laugh starts acting weird and saying that him and Georgia are meant to be. As always in Georgia's life, nothing is ever normal, and everything is full of hilariousity!
