Angus, thongs and full-frontal snogging (book 1):
There are so many things very wrong with my life.
• The boy I like hates me and prefers a wet weed with sticky-out ears.
• My so-called ‘pet’, Angus, just spat at me.
• I went to a party dressed as a stuffed olive.
‘It’s OK, I’m wearing really big knickers!’ (book 2):
• It’s a day and a half now since I snogged the Sex God.
• I think I have snog withdrawal.
• I wonder if the Sex God is having second thoughts about me because of my nose...
‘Knocked out by my nunga-nungas’ (book 3):
• My nunga-nungas are like two sticky-out beacons attracting all the sadsacks in the universe.
• I’ve just inspected my legs. I look like I’ve got hairy trousers on.
Louise Rennison was a journalist, comedian and beloved author. In 1999, she introduced Georgia Nicolson to the world with ANGUS THONGS & FULL-FRONTAL SNOGGING – the first in a 10-book series. The book won the Nestlé Smarties Book Prize Bronze Award and was adapted for film in 2008. In the same year, Louise was crowned Queen of Teen for the series, and in 2010, was awarded the Roald Dahl Funny Prize for WITHERING TIGHTS – the first in a spin-off following the hysterical misadventures of Georgia’s cousin, Tallulah.
Sadly, Louise passed away in 2016 at 64-years-young. She left behind a legion of adoring readers who hold Georgia and the Ace Gang close to their hearts. Her books have been translated into 37 languages and have sold more than 2.6 million copies in the UK. Louise lives on through her cherished character Georgia – who was based on her own teen experiences. In Louise’s and Georgia’s own words: “He who laughs last, laughs the laughiest.”
