A book written in narrative, first person style. The book itself is written as though it were Georgia Nicholson's own journal, the whole time you feel as though Louise has cut a a hole in Georgia's head and installed a window. The story is all about Georgia's fight for a new "Sex God" in her life and all the beauty rituals she must go through to impress the man (men) of her dreams. She has given up on Robbie and now her main vision in her eyes of affection is Massimo (The Italian Stall

'...then he ate my boy entrancers.' was good. And that's just it. Good. Georgia continues to be driven just by the want of boys to like her, but this time she takes it to a new country, Hamburger-a-go-go land (America)!

'...then he ate my my entrancers.'
by louise Rennison
from reading the blurb of the back cover i am predecting that the book is going to be about a crazy teenager who has a best friend called jaz. She is going on a holiday with her family and the boy she likes is there. she thinks she has a big nose and seems a bit confussed. Whilst she packs her bags shes off for her holiday with six suitcases and only six pairs of shoes!.

It's off to 'hamburger-a-go-go' land! At the end of the previous book Georgia's dad announces that they're off to America for a clown car convention. So the Nicolsons, along with Georgia's best mate Jas, set off for Memphis. The "Italian stallion" Masimo just so happens to be in America too, but in Manhattan. Georgia apparently has no concept of American geography, because she thinks it'll be a cinch for her and Jas to hop on a Greyhound to see Masimo. She doesn't even know where he's

I love Georgia Nicolson. She is hilarious, exuberant and unique! I will admit I have this terrible tendency to skip books and read into the series. Then I complain about being confused. Even without having read the book (or books? I forgot where I'd left off in the series) previous to this one, I really liked "...Then He Ate My Boy Entrancers". In this book, a CLASSIC Georgia Nicolson, our main character takes off for Hamburger-A-Gogo Land (aka, The U.S.) Her crazy family and her own l

I started this series last year and had to put it down for a while. Georgia was a typical teenager and she was beginning to annoy me. I agree, she is really selfish and mean to her parents AND friends, but it was sad watching her throw herself at boys in an act of desperation. The main reason why I decided to pick it up again, other than the fact that I like to finish what I started, is because of two characters, Angus and Libby. They both keep me in stitches, especially Libby. The bum song

I love all the Georgia books. They make me laugh histarically, mostly because she does a lot of the things I woud do(like that). I can't wait to see what she does next. She left me on the edge of a cliff last book.

These books drive me crazy, by the time I got to this book of the series I was saying these books are dumb. My husband asked why then are you reading them, well it is because I committed myself to finish the series. I just don't think I would recommend this book to the girls I work with that are 12-18 just because of her constant swearing, her meanness towards her parents and friends, their is no real learning I feel when reading this book other than I learned more British slang, and her need

There's no better series of books for teens at the moment that capture more accurately the trials of life in the hormone-emerging fast lane. Rennison, a stand-up comedienne of some renown, injects each page with the sharpest, wittiest and achingly relevant material there is. It certainly doesn't get any better than this. And? it's another cliffhanger ending, so expect more marvy confessions soon.

Georgia and Jas are off to Hamburger-a-gogo-go land! Georgia thinks that she will find Masimo, but obviously that isn't true as they are off to Tennessee for a clown car convention with Georgia's family. I love the way Louise describes Americans, it is downright hilarious. And to a T, when it comes to hotel staff. They always seem extra cheerful when they are expecting tips from hotel guests.

Just finished reading the book. I get a tad confused at times because of how Georgia and Jas talk. For example, instead of saying The United States, they say, hamburger-a-go-go-land? They replace states with national foods... And the way they talk. Here is some reference from the text.
"Something full of miraculosity has happened. My vati, world-renowned fool and paid-up member of the Big Twit Club, has for once in his entire life accidently done something good. We are going to Hamburge More...

Took a short break from reading this series, right in the middle of reading this book - but I decided to go back to it, since I needed a break from reading the crappy typical romantic suspense novels I usually read. Reading Rennison is like a breath of fresh air (at least, from trashy romantic suspense novels) and I always find myself literally laughing OUTLOUD while reading her books. I love them.

Hamburger-a-gogo land and Molto, molto Masimo vs. Il Ministrone—need I say more? ;) The Miss Malaprop moments are priceless.
Favorite line:
Masimo: “Are you freddo…?”
Georgia: “Oh dear God, he wasn’t going to talk about elves and hobbits, like boys did, was he?”
The cat imagery in these books is excellent. You can tell that Rennison must have had a cat: “Angus got on my knee and started doing that kneading thing they do to make you all comfy. For them. I am like a More...

Georgia has found a new love. So now she is in love with another "Sex God" as she likes to call him and his name is Masimo. He is half Italian and half American. But there is one little problem, Lindsay. Soon he is off to America and Georgia is upset. So when her father decides that they are off to Hamburger-a-gogo Land, Georgia is so overwhelmed, yet she doesn't know where he is in America.

I've read a few reviews of this book that say that this book, the sixth Georgia Nicolson book, is the last really good book in the series. I always try not to read reviews of books before I read them, but sometimes I get carried away.
This book was just as funny as the first five, though the fifth book Away Laughing On A Fast Camel still remains my favorite.
Also, if I'm being honest, I will just confess my love for Dave The Laugh right now.

This book is about two amazing people named Georgia and Jas. Throughout this whole book Georgia and Jas went on a journey to Hamburger which is a Go Go Land. As they were on their journey they tried to find Masimo. Masimo is their Future Boat they always dreamed for. As one 1 week full past, Georgia did not come across or succed in getting her dreamboat. All she did was she learned how to ride a bucking bronco. It wasn't all that special but she still learned something.

Ah, the Georgia Nicolson books. Not exactly great literature, but OH.SO.FUNNY. If you take these books seriously, you will probably not enjoy them. Georgia is shallow and superficial and selfish. But she's also funny enough to make you overlook those things, for the most part. I just wish she would get with Dave the Laugh already. It's taking sooooo long. I'm not interested in Masimo or Robbie--they're kind of dull--but Dave is great. Unfortunately, he really does not get enough book time.

I am so mixed about this book! I'll get the negative out of the way first: I actually couldn't finish it because the heroine's speech idiosyncrasies irritated me so much.
BUT I really liked the heroine too! She was bright, funny, irrepressible and practically bouncing off the page. I'm giving another Louise Rennison book a go and I'd certainly recommend it as the negative was very much subjective, and hopefully other people will enjoy it more.

This one I vividly remember reading (mostly) in public. This was a mistake. One instance, I was on the bus, and the lady beside me was having a nap, and I snorted with laughter and woke her up. I'll need to reread this and hopefully jog my memory as to which part exactly caused me to snort in public. I tried not to be embarrassed - these books are worth the laugh. A REAL laugh, not the suppressed kind.

So much fun! I've read each book up to and including this title, but in preparation for reading Startled By His Furry Shorts I decided to reread this title, using the audio version. So glad that I did. The author narrates, which is often not a good thing, here it works. I love the books simply for their language- hamburger-a-go-go-land (aka the USA), Macuseless (Macbeth), glaciosity (playing hard to get), etc...

Georgia, Jazzy Spazzy, and her family are headed to Hamburger-a-gogo Land! And best of all Masimo, the newest sex god, is there too! The plan is to hop on a bus in Memphis and go to Manhattan for the day to visit him - how far away could it really be any way? Things heat up though when Robbie sends Georgia a second letter from Kiwi-a-gogo Land, and Dave the Laugh mentions some business of "the one that got away", whatever that's supposed to mean...

I think that this book is an OK book because on some parts i got confused and dint get it and when i read my books i would like to know what my book is about or else i wouldn't get it and end up not liking it.
I would not really recommend that book because it was confusing.
