Rennison does very well in portraying that part of growing up where your hormones are starting to rage a bit, but you're still really a kid, so you still do goofy stuff with your friends. Some of it is already a bit dated (our heroine says, "NOT" with regard to things, for example) and Georgia can be a bit on the mean side. She's not at the top of the social hierarchy, so I'd say she still gets as good as she gives, but it was hard to have sympathy for her at times. Still, a fun read.
