Then He Ate My Boy Entrancers by Louise Rennison (amazon
This is one of the recent books in the Confessions of Georgia Nicolson series. The first book was the great Angus, Thongs, and Full-Frontal Snogging. I think ATFFS started the craze for British chick-lit for teens. I’ve read ATFFS and a few of the other books in the series, and while they are all very funny, sometimes I wonder about an author’s ability to keep a long-running series fresh. If the reader is already familiar with Georgia’s obsession with her nose, tendency to end all words with “osity”, and her insane posse of girl-school friends, what can the author do to keep things fresh? In this case Georgia travels to America aka “Hamburger-a-gogo-land” with her parents to attend a clown car convention in Memphis. Since she’s currently obsessed with a new Love God named Massimo who happens to be visiting America, she’s willing to put up with her embarrassing Elvis-wigged parents and go on vacation with them. When she returns to England she has to deal with lovely looking but tiny shoes, a letter from New Zealand, the always present Dave the Laugh, and the terrors of German class. I did laugh out loud several times while I was reading this but. I think at some point all series have to end, and it is starting to get a little annoying that Georgia still fails to realize that the only boy she needs to snog is Dave the Laugh. Poor Dave the Laugh!
I have just finished reading the book and it was so full of hilarosity. Yes, it can get annoying at times that the protagonist still fails to realize what’s under her nose but as *spoilers ahead* Dave the Laugh begins to get serious at the end despite the Cosmic Horn, we might see a clearing of the clouds (I hope) in the next book.
I just root for the two. Their chemistry rocks.
I hope that things get better for Dave the Laugh in the next book, I’m starting to get impatient
I agree. It is quiet annoying that Georgia fails to see that Dave the L. is like only the perfect match for her!!
I really enjoy reading the series it has quickly become among my favourites, and I think its really funny.
Honestly tho i have a question on the series, i have only recently finished “Away Laughing On A Fast Camel” so I haven’t read “Then He Ate My Boy Entrancers” and i was wondering…does the series continue after this book because despite the fact that it is very appealing to me, it is getting rather long.
I’m guessing that the series does continue after Boy Entrancers. I also agree that it is getting rather long.
