    <![CDATA[She has a precocious 3-year-old sister who tends to leave wet nappies at the foot of her bed, an insane cat who is prone to leg-shredding &quot;Call of the Wild&quot; episodes, and embarrassing parents who make her want to escape to Stonehenge and dance with the Druids. No wonder 14-year-old Georgia Nicolson laments, &quot;Honestly, what is the point?&quot; A Bridget Jones for the younger set, Georgia records the momentous events of her life--and they are all momentous--in her diary, which serves as a truly hilarious account of what it means to be a modern girl on the cusp of womanhood. No matter that her particular story takes place in England, the account of her experiences rings true across the ocean (and besides, &quot;Georgia's Glossary&quot; swiftly eradicates any language barriers).<br/>The author, Louise Rennison, is a British comedy writer and it shows. Whether  Georgia is dealing with wearing a bra (&quot;OK, it's a bit on the loose side and does ride up round my neck if I run for the bus&quot;), pondering kissing and how to know which way to turn your head (&quot;You don't want to be bobbing around like pigeons for hours&quot;), or managing the results of an overzealous eyebrow-plucking episode (&quot;Obviously, now I have to stay in forever&quot;), she always cracks us up. Georgia struggles with the myriad issues facing teen girls--boys, of course being at the forefront--but she does it with such humor and honesty it almost seems like a good time. This refreshingly funny book is ripe for a sequel, which readers will await in droves. <em>--Brangien Davis</em>]]>
