I started this thinking it was a reread, but turns out I was confusing it with Mates, Dates, and Inflatable Bras. Whoops! In my defense, why were there two British authors writing books with the "blah, blah, and blahbitty-blah" tempo title at the SAME TIME?! Anyway, while Georgia's voice is fun the rampant homophobia really takes me out of it, and I feel like the diary stylization isn't executed as well as it could be. We don't really get a view as to what Georgia's world is like. We've seen other diary-style books do way better than this, so I don't think it's a perspective issue, it's a fleshing-out issue. Also Robbie is fucking stupid.
