Bakers Dozen 8

On the Bright Side; I'm Now the Girlfriend of a Sex God by Louise Rennison

So this is the second book in Rennison's Georgia Nicholson series and my favorite.  This is also a young adult novel and at the time that I read it it was age appropriate.  I think one of the reason's why this story stuck out in my head is because of the humor.  My taste in humor is very slap stick and kind of juvenile.  One of my favorite parts is where Georgia is holding her younger sister in her lap and her younger sister farts.  That whole scene had me giggling for about 3 hours straight.  But other than that the whole book is full of hilarity.

The whole series is based on Georgia's journal entries about her daily life and her affections of the opposite sex, especially her Sex-God boyfriend Robbie.  The story takes place right after Rennison's first novel, Angus, Thongs, and Full-frontal Snogging so it is a series that you would probably want to start from first novel to the end of the series.

While the first three or four novels seem more juvenile,but you definitely see a character growth in Georgia as the series progresses.  But Rennison never looses her distinct sense of humor as the series progresses.  I have to say that she wrote an excellent modern-day, young adult version of Lucy and Ethel, as Georgia's best friend Jas plays side kick to all of Georgia's crazy antics.

This is definitely a book and series that will probably stay on my bookshelves for years to come.  If you ever feel the need to indulge you inner teenager with some humor I definitely recommend this series to anyone, young or old.
