On the Bright Side, I'm Now the Girlfriend of a Sex God by Louise Rennison

Written by Alyssa Engstrom

On the Bright Side, I'm Now the Girlfriend of a Sex God is about a teenager named Georgia Nicholson and her hectic life. As usual, her top priorities on her mind are makeup, friends, and boys, just like any other normal teenager. However, she has to balance all this with the fact that she will be moving to New Zealand and leaving her hometown in London. She is extremely mad about this because she now has the perfect boyfriend, Robbie, whom she calls the Sex God. Additionally, her mother is no help to her misery and does not care that she does not want to go to Kiwi-a-gogo (New Zealand). One fascinating day, however, she finds out her father got his foot injured by steam that shot out of the ground in Kiwi-a-gogo, so he would be forced to come home and they would not have to go. Now that her life is absolutely perfect and nothing could ruin it. Right? Read this book and find out!

I really liked this book because it had lots of twists and turns that I never expected. Also, it is fun to see what life is like from another peer and what they are going through. I highly recommend this book even if you are not into teen novels. As Georgia Nicholson would say, this book is "fabbity fab fab"!
