Lisa McGee brings an added dimension to the world of the Derry Girls through this book, bringing the events between scenes to the attention to the reader.

There are some real standout pages among Erin's Diary, one of which being the cast list that Erin envisages will play her and her family and friends when Hollywood inevitable comes calling.

Liam Neeson is listed to play Da Gerry, Jim Carrey plays Orla McCool, Pamela Anderson with hair dyed dark is cast in the role as Michelle Mallon, and Robert De Niro is summoned to play Sister Michael.
