Customer Reviews

I didn't put this book down once...

This is the first book I read from cover to cver without being forced to by some teacher or other adult... interestingly enough I got it a week ago at Indigo (this may be a canadian chain... but I pretty sure they own Chapters so I'd assume they'd have it as well)anyway... this intrigues me that no one has been able to find it...

A trully wonderful book!

This book is not only humourous but moving. It is a geniune comment on the society of the time in my opinion. It covers practically anything you're going to come across in life. Just brilliant!

American Reader, July 5th, 1998

I was 13 when my mom first handed me this book, and as there was virtually no new reading material on the base I was living on in Japan, and I being the book-o-holic I am, I read it in one day. I love Adrian and and his diary entries! It's four years later, and I still read my battered copy whenever I need to be cheered up--like before the SATs or when I just need to laugh--everyone should own this book. :)

If only I could have read this when I was a teenager!

As a Chinese girl growing up in the capital city Beijing, I felt a lot of the things Adrian feels -- but I would never have said or written them! When I was a kid, you just didn't talk to grownups like that. This is a funny book, but the humor is a bit black at times, and very moving. No doubt about it: Sue Townsend hasn't forgotten one iota what it means to be a teenager. P.S. I love Adrian's dog too!

Funniest Book Every Read - And I've Read Many !!!

Funny, funny, funny. I would encourage everybody I know (who hasn't already borrowed by copy and reacted in the same way) to BUY THIS BOOK. Sue Townsend has created a wonderful character. The Adrian Mole series were the first Sue Townsend books I bought - she is GREAT and I will continue to read more Sue Townsend. I bought and read this book on the night after my divorce went to court - AND IT CHEERED ME UP enough to laugh again.
