Description: (From Georgia’s Website)

Just when the Sex God becomes Georgia’s official boyfriend, he decides to go off and snog sheep in Kiwi-a-gogo land, taking her heart with him. Georgia decides to display extreme glaciosity to all boys — after all, a girl can only have her heart broken so many times.

Until, ohmygiddygodstrousers, she meets Masimo, the new Italian-American lead singer for the Stiff Dylans band. The Dreamboat has landed — again — and Georgia is away laughing on a fast camel (whatever that means)!

Librarian’s Review: I have no idea HOW I can luuurrrve a book in which practically NOTHING happens BUT Louise Rennison delivers again! Georgia is pining for….oh whats his name…Robbie but not too terribly as she is somehow always accidentally  snogging (kissing) Dave the Laugh and then meets Masimo….ooooo ahhhhh. The comedy in this one was fab, especially the bits about Angus and his new son Gordy. Funny stuff….can’t wait to listen to And Then He Ate My Boy Entrancers!
