This was a fun read.I liked Ruby's character, although I couldn't quite identify myself with her.

Her mom always wanted Ruby to always e...

I've had the worst cold, and I needed something fun and light to read. I found that in "The Boyfriend List" which I read in one sitting. Ruby's story is very refreshing because it's so realistic. As an only child that tended to over analyze and then become very sensitive to the people around me, I f...

I really enjoyed The Boyfriend List: 15 Guys, 11 Shrink Appointments, 4 Ceramic Frogs and Me, Ruby Oliver. The title is a mouthful but I fits the tone of this novel perfectly.

Ended up liking this book a lot more than I expected to. I thought it might turn out to be a little too adolescent for me, but there was some good advice in there that I could do well to apply to my own life. Brought back a lot of memories of when I was in high school.

Her boyfriend dumped her, her friends aren't talking to her (actually nobody seems willing to talk to her, she became a social leper), and there's a list circulating through the school - her boyfriend list. And let's not forget the panic attacks.Ruby is great - fun...

WOOHOO!The Boyfriend List = WIN!I enjoyed Frankie in The Disreputable History of Frankie Landau-Banks, but after reading The Boyfriend List: 15 Guys, 11 Shrink Appointments, 4 Ceramic Frogs and Me, Ruby Oliver, I find that Ruby beats Frankie, hands down. Both of them read innocent, quirky, funny and...

I remember being 12 years old and thinking I was pretty much awesomeness personified for reading books like Jane Eyre and Wuthering Heights when all the other kids were reading Roald Dahl. Since then I seem to be going backwards and reading all the books I should have read prior to my 16th birthday,...

In short, I loved this. Loved the protagonist, loved the fond-in-retrospect memories of high school this book conjured up.
