"Never read an Adrian Mole before and didn't intend to read this one. I saw it and got it for Roy but then in waiting at the library (a little too long) to be picked up I started reading it and then couldn't not finish. The style is a little frustrating for me but the pathos and the cleverness combined with the fact that it's dealing with contemporary politics etc. sucked me in." — Judith (4 out of 5 stars)

" A hilarious and moving entry into the Adrian Mole series, overseeing (view spoiler)[ the breakdown of his marriage to Daisy and his fight with prostate cancer. (hide spoiler)] "
" Another enjoyable read from the Adrian Mole series! "
" Not bad, funny in places but not the most satisfying book in the series - I thought everything had been wrapped up in the last book? The ending was a bit unconclusive as well, which was a shame. Not exactly a Sopranos moment, but not far from it. "
" Read this because i was in the plane to Vietnam, very entertaining and funny. "
" Sue Townsend. I worship you. "
" Although still very funny and full of situations only Adrian Mole can get himself into, this one was rather sad. Still thoroughly enjoyed by me though! "
" Funny but bittersweet. "
" Love love love it!!! Can't wait for the nxt one.......Hurry up Sue & put me out of my misery "
" Adrian Mole, still hanging in there. I enjoyed this read, don't want to give anything away though. Recommended for the Adrian Mole fan. "
" Helemaal niet zo goed als de andere. En hij heeft kanker wat een domper is op het plezier. "
" Sue Townsend's wit and humor has once again conquered the literary world. "
" I wish there were half star ratings, because I'd actually give this 3.5. So there. "
" I grew up with Adrian Mole... really enjoyed the story which given he is about my age in this book was surprisingly difficult to read at time as it was quite close to home! "
" I love Adrian. This isn't the best. It's surprisingly poignant, as Adrian deals with the end of his marriage and cancer treatment. Still his enduring naivite is endearing. He's such a sweet, funny guy. Sure, I miss the British pop culture and political references, but I'm good with it. "
" 3.5 Thought the predecessor to this one was a bit feeble, but this restored my faith - very funny indeed. "
" An average book in my opinion. I found the rather "British" sense of humour a little too sarcastic for my liking. "
" Enjoyable as always, one of those that's easy to read in a few sittings. At times I was laughing out loud: a good read if you enjoy the series. "
" reread this for the first time in a while and i still enjoyed it just as much as the first time I read it. Reading Adrian Moe is like checking in with an old friend. "
" I love this book, mind you I always enjoy any book By Sue Townsend! "
" I enjoyed it very much.....my first of Adrian Mole and will look for the rest of the series "
" Was ok. Not as good as the others though. "
" Not funny. At all. Stick w/ the original. "
" I really wish more nice things would happen to Adrian Mole. I think he deserves it. It's as if Sue Townsend lies awake at night thinking of new ways to make Adrian miserable. I suppose if he were happy, it wouldn't make much of a book, but I'm quite tired of the 'wingeing.' "
" Adrian feels like an old friend. A wacky one, but aren't they the best? :-) "
" This is the Adrian Mole book about which I'm most ambivalent. It's as funny as you'd expect...but it pushes some story elements to outrageous levels that don't really suit our dear Mr. Mole. "
" Good but not the best in an excellent series "
" I still re-read the earlier adrian mole books and they always make me laugh. This wasn't as entertaining - not as funny when an oblivious character is 30+ instead of a hapless teenager. Pandora is still much the same - seems only natural she'd become a Labor MP now that I think of it. "
" Adrian is creepy and whingy by this point - not worth the time of day "
" Yep, enjoyed this one too, bought back memories of the late 90s, easier to relate to than the 80s politics of the previous diaries, as I was more aware myself of these times. Funny and readable, liked it, 3 stars. "
" Hilarious and just sublime. I love Sue Townsend. Adrian Mole is a hero. "
" Hilarious! Though I don't get the reference to some British politicians and celebrities. I still loved it though. "
" Napokon... Adrian je i dalje urnebesan. "
