2024 reread. 3 stars / original read ?. Probably 5 stars.

Little bummed Dave the Laugh didn’t get a real chance in this one, I’m rooting for you buddy! But! I do really like how he’s becoming a “proper boy mate” for Georgia. 

The SG is off in kiwi-a-gogo land (I think), and Tom is headed there for six months too- you don’t really get any proper explanation on that because everything’s about Georgia but, I don’t know about you, I’m relatively used to that by now.  Angus has had offspring, and one of the odd Kit Kats is now theirs. Masimo, the Dreamboat, lands from Italy and Georgia is once again on the rack of love. 

This one ends with her parents telling her they’re all going to Hamburger-a-gogo land. And is it just me, or does her family seem to travel quite a bit? Or at least travel plans are always genuinely being sent out there.  It only seems odd to me, because otherwise her family has come off as being on a tight budget. 🤔

I enjoyed the fourth installment better than the previous one. Georgia is slowly starting to grow into her own and I think she’s slowly starting to act a little more mature and not so much like a little girl.

I’m starting to think in the end she may actually start exclusively dating Dave the Laugh. He’s her only semi-normal relationship and if they could only just see it.

That’s all of my Georgia Nicholson adventures for the year. I’m planning on catching up fully with the series next year.

The Georgia Nicolson books are the best books to read at night before going to sleep!

Not much happened and yet it was still full of bizarreness. I can’t say I’m truly enjoying the books (hence the 2) but it’s still entertaining enough to flick through

It was fun, but I suppose I’m a bit too old to really appreciate this series.

We are now halfway done the Georgia Nicolson Readalong! It’s going by so quickly! After a couple duds, Away Laughing on a Fast Camel put a little zing back into the Georgia Nicolson series. For most of the book, Georgia is realizing the power she can have over guys and is figuring out how to use it. Continue reading at The Paper Trail Diary.

Definitely better than the last: good character development in terms of secondary persons and not necessarily Georgia.

Gee doesn't leave for USA in this one, but it is announced for the next. She meets here MASIMO, Italian Sex Goddy God. Jas and Tom run into a separation of sorts. Rosie and Sven are reunited.

Georiga Nicolson is one of my favorite characters ever. She just plain cracks me up, which is her entire purpose--this is a super fun read for any female.
