The Boy Book (Ruby Oliver) - Tapa blanda

"Lockhart has created a fun character in the spirit of Louise Rennison's Georgia Nicholson and Helen Fielding's Bridget Jones" (Elaine Baran Black School Library Journal)

"Sharp delivery and expert teen inflection" (Publishers Weekly)

Here is how things stand at the beginning of Ruby Oliver's junior year at Tate Prep:

Kim: Not speaking. But far away in Tokyo.
Cricket: Not speaking.
Nora: Speaking - sort of. Chatted a couple times this summer when they bumped into each other outside of school - once shopping in the U District, and once in the Elliot Bay Bookstore. But she hadn't called Ruby, or anything.
Noel: Didn't care what anyone thinks.
Meghan: Didn't have any other friends.
Dr. Z: Speaking.
And Jackson. The big one. Not speaking.

A tale of boys, boobs . . . and penguins. Another riotous trip into the mind of the inimitable Ruby Oliver.
