Fourteen-year-old British schoolgirl Georgia Nicolson is now dating the Sex God—also known as Robbie—and things couldn't be any more fab. When they snog, life is marvy and gorgey and all that stuff. But then Georgia gets dumped because she's too young. Robbie admits she's a great kid, but thinks she might be more interested in his mate Dave, who is "a good laugh." To lure the Sex God back, Georgia decides to give Dave a go. She hopes that when Robbie sees her with another bloke, he'll go mad jealous and come running back to her. This is the uproarious sequel to the smash hit Angus, Thongs, and Full-Frontal Snogging, a cultural phenomenon. Stina Nielsen delivers a belly laugh a minute with her sparkling portrayal of the hilariously self-obsessed Georgia.

      Georgia Nicolson is back! Really! She doesn't move to Kiwi A-Go-Go Land after all, so she gets to stay in England, where she can snog with a sex god, let her cat terrorize the poodles next door, and obsess about growing big bazoomers like her mother. Life is fabity fab fab--until the sex god dumps her because she's too young, forcing Georgia to scheme up all sorts of preposterous, but hilarious, plots to win him back. Stina Nielsen is the perfect narrator for this diary of a young teenage girl. Her lively personality well suits Georgia's breezy outlook on life: The world is all about me! Whether she is agonizing over "spots" (a glossary of British terms is included) or being a good sister to Libby by buzzing like a bee, Nielsen's Georgia has listeners laughing and wondering what the young Brit will do next.

      Starred review from February 26, 2001
      Fans of Rennison's debut, Angus, Thongs and Full-Frontal Snogging, will not be disappointed with this hilarious sequel. Georgia Nicolson's laugh-a-minute narration picks up right where it left off. Vati (as she affectionately calls her father) is off working in "Kiwi-a-gogo land" (New Zealand), and Georgia fears that she will lose the Sex God (Robbie) if she and her family are forced to join Vati. But even when an accident at work ensures that Vati will return and the family will not have to relocate, Georgia loses the Sex God anyway. In a letter, he tells her that she "seem so young" and recommends that she date his younger brother's "really nice mate called Dave. He's a good laugh." So Georgia promptly nicknames the fellow "Dave the Laugh" and sets out to attract him as a way of making SG (Sex God) jealous. Some comical subplots involve Georgia's Mutti (mother) flirting with a George Clooney–look-alike doctor in Vati's absence, Angus's obsession with a Burmese pedigree cat across the street and the reappearance of SG ("I opened the door./ It was the Sex God./ At my door./ Looking like a Sex God./ At my door./ The Sex God had landed at my door./ I was wearing my Teletubbies pajamas"). Will Georgia go for the looks and "retrap" the Sex God? Or will she go for the laughs and end up with Dave? Stay tuned for the next installment. Ages 12-up.
