The Secret DIARY OF ADRIAN MOLE aged 13 3/4 by Sue Townsend

Summary

‘I felt rotten today. It’s my mother’s fault for singing “My Way” at two o’clock in the morning at the top of the stairs. Just my luck to have a mother like her. There is a chance my parents could be alcoholics. Next year I could be in a children’s home.’

Adrian Moles life is not what you would call good. He has a huge spot on his face, his parents could be alcoholics and could be getting divorced, and he wants to be a poet for the BBC but he has been rejected 2 times. How much longer can he last before he absolutely explodes?????

Review

This book was really funny and really good.

Though there are some very important things that you need to know. There are some references to adolescence sexuality. It is not crass as some books are today, but it is definitely a book for kids 13 and over.

I would definitely recommend reading this book. It is extremely good and I personally would read it again.

There are many different covers for this book. This is my version.
