If you're like me, your years of YA readership were narrated by the caustic, raunchy, and intimate voice of Georgia Nicolson. She's a hilarious, self-aware, and painfully horny British teen, backlit by a cast of equally awkward pals and her violently feral pet cat, Angus. I am pleased to report that there are no supernatural properties to be found in this frequently-banned series (Bella who?) — just wholesome, pubescent cringe content.
