In the final book in this trilogy we see Tallulah have even more drama with boys. Cain is still passive aggressively pursuing her and Charlie announces that he broke it off with his long-term girlfriend, so the finale revolves around Tallulah having to choose between the two of them. At least she's given up pining over Alex (and he only makes one brief appearance anyways), or her dilemma would be even more dramatic! In the end Tallulah chooses Charlie - which is a bit predictable in my opinion - but at least this way she won't have to deal with the never-ending drama that Cain seems to instill. Not that he'll give up making trouble for her just because she has a boyfriend though... Maybe there will be a fourth book? ( ) Wow. See, I really thought that Recommended This is the third book in the Tullulah Casey series, with is a spin off of the Georgia Nicolson series. Tullulah is in her third term at Dother Hall, a performing arts college in England. She has her group of friends that she is excited to see and the boys from Woolfe Academy located on the other side of the woods from the girls school. The setting of this series is in Yorkshire and the reader will learn a lot about the dialect and some customs. Tullulah stays with a local family during the school year, who are the complete opposite of her own parents. She has also been trying to avoid one of the local boys in a band because he has a bad reputation with girls. Tullulah has set her sights on Charlie from Woolfe Academy. The girls gossip about boys, get themselves in trouble with their teachers and head master, have to pull off a performance and want to fall in love. There is a glossary in the back to help American readers with a lot of the slang. I am a big fan of Louise Rennison. Her writing is totally hilarious and the angst filled musings of pre-teens is strangely entertaining. I love that the publisher did not change the slang and dialect of this writing because it would have changed so much of the story and it would not have been as funny. It’s along the lines of Bridget Jones’ Diary for much younger readers. I love this book for IB school libraries because within all the comedy, readers will actually learn about colleges and terms in Great Britain. More of a global perspective in fiction for American readers. Readers (mostly girls) will see similarities and differences between school, slang and culture. It will appeal to younger readers who enjoy series books. The nicknames and dialogue are clever. This is a good book to escape into. It’s fast, funny with a play on Shakespeare in each volume. Perfect for the beach or any vacation. I recommend it to readers who are looking for something funny with a bit of romance. sem resenhas | adicionar uma resenha
