This book was double cool with knobs. There wasn't a time in this book when I wasn't laughing. Georgia is basically me when I was 14. I've had some disasters like she has had.

Ok, I guess I may have liked this better if I'd read it as a teen. However, I really just felt like slapping Georgia all through the book.

This book was awesome!! I was chuckling to myself while reading it. This is the diary of Georgia Nicolson from England. She is a 14 year old girl.

I wasn't sure how to feel about this book at first. It seemed like it was trying too hard, but then once I got into it, I really loved it. Georgia is pretty funny. I will definitely read the rest of this series. ...more
