Hunky is the boyfriend of Jas and it is through Tom that Georgia actually comes to meet the Sex God. Robbie has a brother who also has a nickname: Hunky. The question becomes, of course, does Robbie like personality as much as thongs. But though she may have a leg upon on George when it comes to sexuality, she’s not really much of a rival when it comes to brains and personality. At the commencement of Georgia’s super-major-crush, Robbie is dating Lindsay, who is mature enough to account for the thongs of the title. This is courtesy of Georgia’s total obsession with the Mini Cooper-driving slightly older boy. Robbie also has a nickname and probably the best in the entire book: the Sex God. Jas, like most other characters in the book, is a shortened nickname, in this case a time-biting version of Jasmine. It is a complex friendship filled with repetition, redundancy, and recurring battles that eventually get soothed over, usually just in time for the next fight between friends. At the same time, however, Jas is also at times Georgia’s nemesis in weird way.

She even includes a very useful glossary of terms at the back. She introduces herself in a “Note” at the book’s beginning with a warning/advisory to American readers to beware of the robust dollops of slang which populates the lexicon of her entries.
