Janet Bandry is the hilarious, awkward teenager of PLANET JANET and the sequel, PLANET JANET IN ORBIT. These two books combine together to form the fully awesome DEEP AND MEANINGFUL DIARIES FROM PLANET JANET. This book, written by the author of CONFESSIONS OF A TEENAGE DRAMA QUEEN, had me laughing from the first page to the last.
Janet's friends and family always sarcastically says Janet lives on her own weird planet. But to me, Janet seems like the everyday quirky best friend we all have or want to have. Janet is the girl with the nose ring who dyes her hair purple as a part of her year-long experimental "Dark Phase." She's also the self-centered girl who is boy crazy and doesn't understand anybody in her family (including her mother, whom she has nicknamed Mad Cow).
DEEP AND MEANINGFUL DIARIES FROM PLANET JANET follows a year of Janet's humorous life. In that time, she deals with a major fight with her best friend, develops numerous crushes, and even survives a clothing store robbery. Through it all, Janet remains strong, determined, and always with her awesome sense of humor intact.
Set in London, Janet's diary reminds of me of those from Bridget Jones and Georgia Nicolson. It contains the wonderful ramblings and hilarious insights that made both BRIDGET JONES'S DIARY and THE CONFESSIONS OF GEORGIA NICOLSON smash hits. So if you are looking for lots of laughs, then grab a copy of this book and enter into Janet's Planet!
