Why did I admit I wanted Masimo to be my proper boyfriend? Why?
• One minute he was snogging me, and then the next he was snogging Wet Lindsay, stick insect and drip.
• Perhaps I should tell him he can go out with her as well as me…
• But then I might snog him after she has snogged him, which would mean I have practically snogged her!!!
• I would rather snog my cat, Angus!
• He has certainly got nicer legs… Well, more of them anyway.
Follow Georgia's hilarious antics as she desperately muddles her way through teenage life and all that it entails: make-up disasters, rapidly expanding nunga-nungas, school – urgh – unsympathetic friends, highly embarrassing family (and pets) and, of course, BOYS…

'A thrilling dystopian fantasy' Telegraph
Serendipity loves horses. No-one in Lahn Dan has ever seen one, apparently they died out before the Gases - but there are statues of them around the city, paintings and drawings too if you know where to look. And there's the little lost wooden horse Mama gave Serendipity when she was little.
When Mama dies, Seren is taken under the wing of Professor Nimbus, a storyteller. Nimbus is kind and knowledgable, but Seren has started to question the Minister's rule and life beyond the high, impenetrable Emm Twenty-Five wall. Hidden among Mama's few possessions was a map which suggests there is life outside of Lahn Dahn, and a place where horses live and roam freely - out beyond the wall and the Minister's grip. So, with the help of a trader boy called Tab and his little dog Mouse, Serendipity heads into the unknown, searching for the beautiful creatures she's always dreamed of. But the Minister is behind them, determined to hunt her down. . .
Mark's like any other thirteen-year-old. He loves his dog, taking
photos and hiking - but he also has cancer.
When his illness returns, Mark decides he's had enough of hospital.
With his small dog Beau, he sets out to climb a mountain - and
he's not going to give up until he's done it.
