#angus thongs and full-frontal snogging

[guide-to-galaxy]

Top 5 (series I wished were shorter)

I could’ve chosen kids’ series but also the long series like Enid Blyton or Babysitters Club are important for kids – short books even reluctant readers can get through easily. Also 2 series on here I DON’T like at all so I wanted those to be shorter lol. As always, go look at Meeghan’s blog for the past or future prompts! 📚🚀📚 Marked by P.C. and Kristen Cast (GR/SG) – I think most of this…

Awww I love author Anthony! When does Kate find out he carries that photo around? Can we get a snippet of that night it was taken?

Let’s see Kate’s point of view

She’s not even really sure how she ended up here. They’d been in the pub, surrounded by their friends with empty glasses strewn on the table around them and Anthony had scoffed.

“Oh, of course you think Frankenstein is trash. Of course you do!”

Kate raised her eyebrows while the rest of the table groaned.

“No! No, we’re having a nice night! Please don’t start arguing.”

Kate smiled and leaned across the table at Anthony, his stupid handsome face making something flutter in her chest. “Convince me, Bridgerton. Convince me that Victor Frankenstein isn’t a complete dickhead who got in over his head.”

“If you don’t understand the metaphor for the fact that we are eventually all brought down by our own hubris, then I can’t explain it to you, Sharma. You’re hopeless.”

“Sounds like you’re scared to convince me. Almost like you… know you can’t.”

His laughter was so beautiful. She hated how nice that sound was. Warm and happy. He ran his hair through his already messy hair. “Katie Kat I could convince you to do so many things.”

God, she wanted him to. She’d thought they’d never be friends the first time they met, and she definitely didn’t think she’d be where she is now, with her heart fluttering in her chest every time she saw him. And she didn’t think when he looked at her through his lashes, a lit cigarette in his hand, the smoke curling between him that she’d say yes so easily.

“I thought you were giving up smoking.”

Anthony sighed, looking wistfully at it, “I know, I know. You hate smokers. I just miss the smell when I’m a few pints deep. Makes me feel like a tortured artist.” He stamped it out on the side of the bin, tossing the cigarette in the ashtray unsmoked. “Are you heading somewhere?”

Kate raised her eyebrows, “Just… back to my dorm.”

Anthony nodded, stepping closer and putting his hands in his pockets, the scarf his mum had made him for Christmas wrapped around his neck. “Are you actually up for a friendly literary debate back at mine?”

“Yes. Obviously.”

Their breath had frosting in the air between them as they made their way back to his flat, laughing and giggling about one thing or another. And here they were now.

Kate had pulled off her boots and their coats were abandoned on the floor by the kitchen, empty bottles between them as they sat on the rug in front of the fire, the only light in the room. Anthony’s wire rimmed glasses slid down his nose as he shook his head.

“You are ridiculous!”

“I’m not ridiculous! Angus, Thongs, and full frontal Snogging is a fucking great book for its demographic! I still love that book!”

“I am… obsessed with this confidence.” Anthony grinned, “I’m obsessed with you.”

He doesn’t mean it like that. Kate sighed to herself, taking another long drag from her drink. He would make a move if he wanted to. He’s slept with a quarter of the girls on our course.

“Oh and what were you reading at 12? Were you composing a modern version of Beowulf?”

Anthony flushed, “There was some epic poetry involved, yes.”

Kate laughed, ruffling his hair, “You’re so stupid.”

“You say that like it’s a bad thing!”

“If you’re so obsessed with me,” She snatched his brother’s Polaroid camera off the coffee table, “Take a picture so it’ll last longer.”

Anthony rolled his eyes at the challenge, “Well strike a pose for me then. Something worth capturing, please madam.”

She waited for the flash and the square of film to shoot out the bottom of the camera and their body’s swayed closer as she peered down at it. “Fuck, you better put that in your wallet, Bridgerton. A memento of this glorious night when we got along. When I looked pretty as hell”

Anthony rolled his eyes, “Come on, you’re always fucking beautiful. You know that.”

She could sense the shift in the air. She felt her breath caught in her chest and she was suddenly too aware of how close her body was to his and the heat of the fire radiating between them. She was too aware of how easy it would be for him to close the distance between them, tilt her chin up and claim her lips for himself.

“Do I know that?”

“You should.” His eyes flicked down to her lips and his teeth bit his own, seconds slipping by. “I’m… having a nice time with you.”

“Yeah me too.”

Anthony took a shuddering breath and leaned backwards, slapping his hands against his thighs before he stood, his feet slipping on the floor in his socks. “Another drink while you prepare you Wuthering heights is the worst arguments?”

“Yeah.” Kate cleared her throat, hoping the firelight would distract from her own embarrassment as she pushed it down, “And I know you hate it too so don’t pretend!”

“Maybe I just want to hear your arguments!”

“You’re such a glutton for punishment.”

“Remind me to never bloody let you read my manuscript.”

“No promises there.”

did anyone else read these. these were like. the lowest brow books i read as a young adult and i devoured them. the rich (in experience, not money lol) life of a very dumb but very ordinary early 2000s girl lol. as someone who was not feminine and had a hot/cold relationship with the idea, getting to see the inner world of a """"prep"""" genuinely helped little tween me be like "ohhhhh shes stupid like me. we are all so stupid together"

She'd never considered Key having hobbies. Even main characters only got plot-relevant hobbies, like combat skills, painting their beloved, or meticulously writing out their own life stories.

Long Live Evil by Sarah Rees Brennan

My thoughts under the cut:

So while I've enjoyed many journal-style novels (Princess Diaries, Angus, Thongs, and Full-Frontal Snogging, etc.), I've always had to work on suspending my disbelief that these characters will journal chronologically, meticulously remembering everyone's exact words, gestures, tone of voice, etc. In real journals (in my personal experience), there's no suspense. It's like "I KISSED A BOY!!! Okay, we were at the dance and blah blah blah..." I always lead with the biggest news, the strongest feelings, etc. To me this is Rae pointing out that trope/flaw in journal novels. I mean, occasionally the author will have the character say, "If I don't put this down in order, I won't remember it right," or in Tamora Pierce's case, her journaling character had a memory palace that she'd worked to build. But most times it's not addressed.

Anyway. I like Rae calling it out.

Cain licked a hailstone right off Tallulah Casey's face for no apparent reason other then cuz he's bad and odd, Chris had a 'supervillain glare' to protect Em Watts at a party, Dean completely manipulated Molly Montgomery to get famous, Hayden and (a different) Chris were both actual enemies with their respective heroines at the start, and Sebastian straight-up used Penn O'Connell for a study,...

Just looking at the love interests in the books I used to read when I was 10-13 and realising they totally set me up for the men I like now 😅XD

The books, for anyone interested:

Cain and Tallulah are from Louise Rennison's hilarious Wuthering Tights Trilogy. These are so so funny, and I read the second one like a thousand times XDD Louise Rennison also did Angus, Thongs and Full Frontal Snogging and that is also amazing XDD You cant stop at just a few pages, you canttt XD

Chris and Em are from Meg Cabot's brilliant Airhead trilogy. AHH this one was my PERSONALITY for like a whole year. I cant even explain what this series was for me!

Dean and Molly are from Sarra Manning's Guitar Girl. ... I had (have) a huge crush on their evil manager Paul 😅 Also it has a great ending ^^ 'Instead we signed to a tiny, teeny label who can just about afford to take us out for coffee, and we write songs about what we watched on telly the other night. Oh, and dark-haired boys who steal your heart away' still gets to me.

Hayden is from Tara Eglington's How To Keep a Boy from Kissing You Duo. Oh, young me thought she was gonna be sooo popular with the boys XDD And well, Young Hannah- I must say you're going to be disappointed. Not because boys don't like you, but because you don't want them 😅😅😅

Chris is from Rachael Wing's Star Crossed. This was pretty much my first x reader fanfic XD You get to be Juliet to Chris' Romeo. I was a lil more interested in the dads though... is that a surprise? no.

And Sebastian and Penn are from Nansi Kunze's EXCELLENT Mishaps. This one??? THIS ONE??? Even more indescribable then Airhead. I just, ughhhhhhhh. I think I got a whole lotta my need to write from this book.

The book/movie you're thinking of is called 'Angus, Thongs, and Full Frontal Snogging"! I read the book series as a girl but I never saw the movie. Angus is the name of her cat iirc

Yes yes that’s it!! Tyy 💕

I feel like when I was a pre-teen, young adult books were just starting to be a thing, but we didn’t have money to buy them (or regular transportation to a library) so I lived off of Steven king novels we picked up at garage sales.

The closest I got to bring “not allowed” to read something was when I was 13 and had friends lend me teen romances, I remember my mom really did not like the title of one - I think it was something like “on the bright side, my boyfriend is a sex god” (I think it was the sequel to angus, thongs, and full frontal snogging?) and my mom was like “hey. When you finish this one… let’s be done with the sexy books maybe?” And even then, she let me finish reading it which is very funny lol

Thanks, Anon!
