内容简介

The Sex God has left the country, taking Georgia's heart with him. So she decides to display glaciosity to all boys -- a girl can only have her heart broken so many times.

Until she meets Masimo, the new singer for the Stiff Dylans. The Sex God is gone, but here comes the Dreamboat, and Georgia's away laughing on a fast camel (whatever that means).

作者简介

Louise Rennison is the bestselling and award-winning author of the angst-filled Confessions of Georgia Nicolson. Louise lives in Brighton, the San Francisco of England (apart from the sun, Americans, the Golden Gate Bridge, and earthquakes).

编辑推荐 From School Library Journal
Grade 7-9–Georgia continues her fabbity-fab ride through adolescence. Pining for her boyfriend Robbie, aka the Sex God, who is in Kiwi-a-gogo land, she finally receives the long-awaited letter. To her dismay, it is anything but romantic and she finds herself with a severe case of heart breakosity. No fear, her attention is quickly diverted by Masimo, an Italian American who is the new boy in town. Even though the teen hasn't matured much, her voice is still fresh. The book will have readers laughing out loud and looking for more. This installment ends with Vati announcing that the family is going to Hamburger-a-gogo land, the USA, on break, leaving one to believe there is a sequel in the works. The book can stand alone but some of the innuendos will be missed by readers unfamiliar with the previous titles. Students will be asking for this one and fans will keep it off the shelf.–Angela M. Boccuzzi, Merton Williams' Middle School, Hilton, NY

From Booklist
Gr. 7-10. Georgia is back again, and if she languishes at first, pining for the Sex God (boyfriend Robby) away in Kiwi-a-gogo land (New Zealand), it doesn't last long. There's a new boy in town--Masimo, the half-Italian, half-American lead singer for the Stiff Dylans--and Georgia finds her allegiance to the Sex God waning as Masimo shows an interest in her. As in the four earlier titles, it's not so much what happens as how Rennison relates it. The deliciously silly slang and a hilarious glossary make ordinary events (reading Heidi to her younger sister) hysterically funny. Fans of Angus the cat will be pleased to hear that his genes are all too present in his offspring; the only thing better than Angus is a mini-Angus. This won't stand alone, but Georgia's zillions of loyal readers will be delighted. Debbie Carton
