About this deal

Jacqueline Wilson, award-winning queen of tell-it-as-it-is children's literature, hits the teen spot with this straightforward, highly enjoyable novel, adding further flesh to the bones of the characters her loyal readers will have come to love in Girls In Love, Girls Under Pressure and Girls Out Late.

Later it's revealed that Russell forced the kiss on Magda and she wasn't making out with him consensually. no character development, no literature, just dumbed down soap opera for kids with poor language that translates in to a scholastic rating of grade 6-9. There's a subplot about her having a creepy online boyfriend and thankfully that's done right with the girls learning you never know who you can trust. Her books are great at getting children to really think about actions and their consequences, really opening the eyes of children to the world. Make sure you read this book before you go into girls in love and all of the other series as you will get very confused other wise.the publisher of this PAPERBACK book is Corgi The date of this copy is 2005 booksalvation have grade it as Good and it will be shipped from our UK warehouse This book is from the Series. Magda`s lost her pet and is desperately upset (though the others didn`t even know she still had a hamster! Of course, Ellie would normally turn to her friends at a time like this but Nadine and Magda are getting frustrated with her.

She tackles the everyday issues that really count (school, boys, family life, friendship, bad hair, imperfect bodies.Thank God childrens/young adult literature has evolved so much in the last 15 odd years, and pity poor me who pretty much only had this series to turn to to resolve my teenage angst. Then awakes and tries to leave only to stumble across her BeST friend making out and laying on top of her boyfriend on the stairs. russell is sex crazed, disgusting, jealous and rude and she's still thinking about getting back together with him?

It feels very juvenile, verging on condescending, for a novel aimed at 14-15 year olds, yet the subject matter itself straddles that line between being too ‘adult’. Why is goddess Ms Wilson encouraging young girls to get back with boys who patronise them, bully them into things they're not ready for and also make out with their best friends and then claim "but I was drunk" as an excuse. I just loved it I'm going to definitely get girls under pressure and girls in love and of course girls out late! Released in 2002, 3 years after Girls Out Late, it seems Jacqueline didn't even read the previous books and just went off her memory of them. Get caught up in the wonderfully engrossing world of these three teenage girls and their absorbing, convincing and entertaining lives and loves.my favorite characters are Nadine because I like her goth style ,and Magda because she is fun and loveable . The Illustrated Mum won the Guardian Children’s Fiction Award, the 1999 Children’s Book of the Year at the British Book Awards and was also shortlisted for the 1999 Whitbread Children’s Book Award. A disappointing ending and not the love yourself first/girl power message Jacqueline Wilson usually peddles.
