ANGUS, THONGS, AND FULL-FRONTAL SNOGGING

Angus: My mixed-breed cat, half domestic tabby, half Scottish wildcat. The size of a small Labrador, only mad.

Thongs: Stupid underwear. What's the point of them, anyway? They just go up your bum, as far as I can tell.

Full-Frontal Snogging: Kissing with all the trimmings, lip to lip, open mouth, tongues ... everything.

Her dad's got the mentality of a Teletubby (only not so developed). Her cat, Angus, is trying to eat the poodle next door. And her best friend thinks she looks like an alien -- just because she accidentally shaved off her eyebrows. Ergghhhlack. Still, add a little boy-stalking, teacher-baiting, and full-frontal snogging with a Sex God, and Georgia's year just might turn out to be the most fabbitty fab fab ever.

The title alone makes you curious, doesn't it? Well come on then and follow Georgia as she hilariously deals with boys, friends, embarrassing parents, an annoying little sister, and an insane cat in merry old England. You won't be disappointed. Katy

UNASHAMED

2001 Christy Award winner Book 2 in the Lineage of Grace series by best-selling author Francine Rivers. In her trademark style, Francine tells the compelling story of Rahab from the book of Joshua. Readers will gain a fresh understanding of God's work through the life of this unlikely woman in the lineage of Christ.

Rahab was so faithful and brave in a place and at a time when that would have been very difficult. This is a wonderful book that fills in the blanks of this ancestor of Jesus' story as it might have been, and makes it easier to understand. I would encourage everyone to read this book along with the book of "Joshua" from the Bible. Katy
