Product Description The revolt (and laughs) continue in Book 5 as Nick and Sheeni duck the FBI and assorted angry parents by escaping to Paris. Try as he might to lie low, blend in, and even learn a little French, Nick soon finds himself the elusive target of a storm of European media attention. Oui, Americas most dangerous teenager may be too outrageous for the French. Prepare for more uproarious surprises as Nick experiences life and love with a continental flavor. And dont miss Revoltingly Young, the concluding novel (Book 6) in the hilarious Nick Twisp saga, also available now.

A genuinely good book August 16, 2006 Oren Yoeli (Kailua, HI USA) As my title suggests, this is a genuinely good book. Funny, creative and absurd, it follows up and concludes the Twispian saga perfectly. However, don't be too hopeful... It doesn't turn out the way us fans wanted it to.
It ends well September 10, 2006 Cybele Jones (Los Angeles) Yes, it does not end how we wish, but I for one was totally satisfied with the ending of our favorite hero's saga. I personally don't think it could have concluded any other way. This is just as quirky as the previous books and there are a few laugh out loud moments. This novel is a totally worthwhile book and a must read for any Nick Twisp fan!
super rad February 6, 2010 Skye Evans (Reno, NV) 1 out of 2 found this review helpful
i love the whole book and the series to death but the ending just pissed me off. it explains everything but i just wanna know exactly what happened before the epilogue but thats just me. i dont like how things leave ya making your own assumptions so thats just me
Great Book January 10, 2010 J. Garcia 0 out of 1 found this review helpful
This is a great novel. I recommend all the books of this novel(Youth in Revolt, Revolting Youth, Young and Revolting, and Revoltingly Young). Absolutely one of my favorite books I've had the pleasure of reading! A surprising, breathtaking, speechless-educing twist in this part of the series. Hope you read all the books!
If it weren't for the ending.... November 23, 2006 Eric A. Seiden (Miami, FL United States) CD Payne has an interesting style, and if you're reading this review, I can only assume you've read the original "Youth in Revolt" which is an utter classic.
Nick Twisp begins life as an over-sexed nympho-like 14 year-old. He's older in Y&R but that doesn't mean he's matured. That's a good thing. Because what keeps this book enjoyable is the fact that Nick will always and forever be a fourteen year old sex addict. His outlook on life doesn't change drastically, and if it did we probably wouldn't like him nearly as much. Nick's always going to be a terribly misguided youth and that's his charm. His adventures are still vastly amusing, but nowhere near as madcap as his first adventure. Quite frankly, I miss François and Carlotta who appear briefly only. Payne gives it his best, but the ending is not that satisfying. It's more like an afterthought and that's short-changing the readers. Still this is a welcome return to the Land of Twisp.
