Tallulah is a fourteen and a half year old who was accepted into a performing arts summer school. Dother Hall, or as the locals call it "Dither Hall." But anyway, she ends up staying with a kooky family called the Dobbins, and living in the quaint little town of Heckmondwhite. Well, maybe it isn't what you would call quaint.This book is absolutely hilarious. Tallulah, as a character is just amazing. She is so relateable, especially seeing as I'm at the age that she's supposed to be. But in all honesty, she reminds me of my best friend, which made the book even better.The story is all about how Tallulah meets lots of new friends at her new school. There's Honey, Vaisey, Jo and Flossie. And they're all boy crazy. The only problem was that the school was an all girls. Soon, they found out about the neighboring boys' school, and with that came magic and mayhem. This is so well written and thought out, and just full of laughs and lols.I love love love the characters in this book, they're all so quirky and unique and they just seem so fun to be around. I just Louise Rennison! Her characters are always so well developed!All in all, I LOVED this book. Although it is targeted at younger readers, it doesn't make it any less hilarious, and if you can get your hands on a copy, definitely give it a read, you will not regret it! When I discovered that Rennison had written another series in addition to Georgia Nicolson, I think my reaction was a bit like Harry Potter fans when J.K. Rowling announced that she'd be writing a new book. I wanted the new series to be secretly about Georgia and not this new character, Tallulah. Despite my misgivings: it was charming, just as readable as the last, and I like it already. Actually, it was easier to understand than the Confessions of Georgia Nicolson because Rennison dialed back a bit on the slang usage- I understand that was a bit of a complaint from the last series, that it was so filled with slang terms as to be unintelligible, but I never thought that was a problem. Anyway, there is less of that in here and more use of proper English. Rennison included a glossary of English terms in the back for her American readers, like in the last books, which I love and cleared up any remaining linguistic misunderstandings.The setting of an art school is perfect for Rennison's zany storytelling and wacky characters. The comedic moments flow very smoothly from the teenagers' attempts to be artistic and their instructors' various quirks. Rennison has built the type of world where anything can happen and it makes reading her story so much fun. I think that there were similarities between her two series but not so much as to be unoriginal. For example, both have handsome boys singing in bands and both have climatic, theatrical performances occurring at the end of the narration. The boys and the performances were totally different though, just the same "type" of scene. If that bothers you, then don't read these.
What do You think about Najlonski Visovi (2011)?
Ugh. No. Only finished this because I can't not finish a book
