Very Funny
Very funny story with an excellent narration by Nicholas Barnes, using just the right tone of voice to portray the attitudes of the young, clueless Adrian Mole.

Great listen
What did you like most about The Growing Pains of Adrian Mole?
I most liked the similarities between going through acne and embarrassment.
Would you be willing to try another book from Sue Townsend? Why or why not?
Yes, it is really entertaining listen.
What does Nicholas Barnes bring to the story that you wouldn’t experience if you had only read the book?
His voice is great and definitely shows oh you would expect him to sound if you were reading it.
Was this a book you wanted to listen to all in one sitting?
No I listened to it in stages because it is a lot to take in all at once.

Every Bit As Good As The First Installment!
This, the second book in the Adrian Mole series of books superbly written by Sue Townsend, is every bit as funny and absorbing as the first. Again, I read this many years ago when I too was a teenager, and it brings back so many fond and awkward memories.
Adrian, is a character you can't help feeling sympathy for, even though at times you can't help but feel he brings a lot of his woes upon himself. But at heart, he is a decent and kind-hearted teenager, trying to find himself in this big world.
Narration by Nicholas Barnes was very good and helped to make this audio experience a pleasant one.
I look forward to the next book in the series.
