Angus, Thongs and Full Frontal Snogging

Angus, Thongs and Full Frontal Snogging by Louise Rennison

This book is a fire cracker! Before reading this book I flipped through the book and found a glossary of terms. These terms as Georgia puts it are "English" terminology and not typical "American" lingo.

A few of my favorite:
Bloke: a member of the masculine gener
Duffing up: female, less violent version of beating up
Fringe: American version of "bangs".
Knickers: panties, "things you wear to cover your girlie parts"
Nuddy-pants: nakedness
Snogging: Kissing.

So, after I laughed uncontrollably, I could not wait to open the book and start reading. The book is broken down into chapters by Months. I am currently on page 55 and do not find this book to be as exciting as I wanted it to be. Georgia the 14 year old girl goes through the regular every day type of issues.She shaves off her eye brows, finds a cute guy that she likes, and just seems to live the life of an average teenage girl. I would recommend this book to any girls as a pleasure read; however, this is not a teachable book.

This book has served its purposes; I laughed and had a glimpse of a teenage romance. Now that my spirits are lifted I am ready to give up on the book for a summer pleasure read.

Who is Angus? Angus is Georgia’s huge cat. He was an abandoned kitten and now loves to intimidate the next door poodle.
