Girl, Fifteen, Charming but Insane

Girl, Fifteen, Charming But Insane is the most memorable title in a series of young adult books by Sue Limb. It is a British Coming of Age series about a young girl named Jess who must struggle with A Cup Angst, a Love Triangle between a gorgeous, mysterious loner boy and her best friend. Sometimes affectionately referred to as Junior Bridget Jones, most of the plot lines revolve around romantic and endearingly embarrassing plot lines told from a teenager's perspective.

The series consists of the following titles.

 * Girl, Barely Fifteen, Flirting England
 * Girl, Fifteen, Charming But Insane
 * Girl (Nearly) Sixteen, Absolute Torture
 * Girl, Going On Seventeen, Pants On Fire

Contains examples of:

 * A Cup Angst: So severe that when she attends a party, Jess . Hilarity ensues.
 * Adorkable: Fred. Jess sometimes qualifies.
 * All Girls Want Bad Boys: Hinted at with Ben but it is questionable HOW bad he really is.
 * Beautiful All Along: Jess.
 * Brainless Beauty: Ben. Subverted with Flora, who is very smart and pretty.
 * Cloudcuckoolander: Jess, Fred and Granny.
 * Cute and Psycho: A minor example with Jess' Granny, who is a sweet old lady who happens to enjoy films like Crocodile Dundee or Pulp Fiction and seems to be a bit fixated on death and carnage.
 * Fake Boobs: See above.
 * Hollywood Homely: Jess believes she is ugly because she has an A cup (at fifteen) and her arse is too big. On the cover of each book, she looks fine.
 * I Call Him "Mister Happy": Jess' breasts are named Bonnie and Clyde. She gives them pep talks.
 * Incompatible Orientation: Jess blames this when.
 * Just Friends: Jess treats Fred like this, while constantly complaining to him about her "boy troubles" with Brad.
 * Les Yay: In Girl, Fifteen, Charming But Insane, the hidden bathroom camera catches two female best friends making out or "snogging" in the bathroom. This causes Jess to (very briefly) consider her own friendship with Flora, long enough to differentiate it from a Romantic Two-Girl Friendship.
 * Lovable Alpha Bitch: Flora.
 * Love Triangle: Ben/Jess/Fred.
 * Running Gag: Jess' body hang-ups, particularly her arse and her eyebrows.
 * Spoiled Sweet: Flora.
 * Trash of the Titans: Jess's mum knows the video she has in the first book isn't a copy of the Twelth Night, because she can see it sticking out of Jess's schoolbag.
 * Unlucky Childhood Friend: Fred.
