The Boyfriend ListBy: E. Lockhart

Rating: It was alright...
Ruby Oliver is forced by her parents to see a shrink following her numerous anxiety attacks which are the result of her breakup with her boyfriend of six months and the catastrophies which ensue. Her shrink suggests that Ruby make a list of all the boyfriends or crushes she's had throughout her fifteen years. Through this list and the sessions with Ruby's shrink, the reader gains a comical insight to the life of an average teenage girl.
While this book may seem like just another novel on the melodrama of a teenager's life, it was very entertaining and funny. Ruby's witty narratives and amusing footnotes literally had me laughing out loud. While this book may not contain sunstantial material, it is- as my parents like to call- "brain candy". If you're looking for a good laugh and a pleasantly interesting book, E. Lockhart's charming novel presents an amusing experience.
