Louise Rennison

Dother Hall Performing Arts College is not quite the showbiz experience Tallulah was expecting. But once her mates turn up and they start their summer course things are bound to perk up. Especially when the boys arrive. Six weeks of parent-free freedom.

The Misadventures of Tallulah Casey

Withering Tights

Self-conscious about her knobby knees but confident in her acting ability, 14-year-old Tallulah Casey spends the summer at a Yorkshire performing arts camp that she is surprised to learn is for girls only, in the first book of a new series by the award-winning author of the Confessions of George Nicolson series. 50,000 first printing.

SO funny, so cute, so tween-y! I loved this book.

Sarah Sammis

Looks like there will be a sequel. I certainly hope so.

Amanda Kordeliski

Rennison's new series is a spin off of her outrageously funny Georgia Nicholson series. Tallulah Casey is Georgia's younger cousin and is spending the summer at a theatre camp in Yorkshire to avoid going on a family camping trip. Yorkshire is in rural England and is very different from city life Tallulah is used to living. Tallulah is quirky and funny but this series is a distant second place to Rennison's other series. A good quick read, but make sure you read the glossary of Tallulah's slang at the back before tackling the book.

I didn't enjoy this as much as the Georgia books, but it was still a super fun read!!

I think I laughed more with Tallulah than I did with Georgia! The perfect pick-me-up book to read during a not-so-great time in my life. I laughed, I Irish danced, and I can't wait for the next one to come out!

Caitlin Berger

Hmmm, I don't know what to make of this book. I love Louise Rennison, she's really a fantastic author, but I think this book fell flat for me. It was funny, sure, but I dunno, it just didn't live up to my expectations. I couldn't keep track of all the characters and it wasn't as entertaining as "Angus, thongs and full-frontal snogging", for example. It was fun to read but I most likely won't be reading the sequel.

Laugh your tights off at the very amateur dramatic antics of Talulla and her bonkers mates. Boys, snogging and bad acting guaranteed! Picture the scene: Dother Hall performing arts college somewhere Up North, surrounded by rolling dales and wildlife of the squirrely-type. Six weeks of parent-free freedom. Boy freedom. Freedom of expression!
