1st book review
Well, here it is. The first book review. "the boyfriend list" by e. lockhart gets the honor. The basic summary by the author goes: 15 guys, 11 shrink appointments, 4 ceramic frogs and me, ruby oliver. To elaborate it would be a 15 year old girl (Ruby) has panic attacks after a "leprosy" outbreak and winds up in therapy. The four frogs are related to a gift from a certain boy. The therapist assigns her to write a list of all the boys she has had any, and I mean any, romantic contact with. Even from afar. This book is like a little trip down memory lane. I dare you, double dog dare you, to not make your own boyfriend list while reading this book. She names each boy and circumstance from pre-school to sophmore in high school to her therapist bringing together how each relationship counts. No matter how small, they all count. Its really a book for teens, its cute, funny, and like I said, dredges up all those delightful memories you would rather forget but somehow seem so much funnier when it's someone else. 4 stars
