Publisher's Synopsis
Sophie Stein, fifteen, gets dumped, falls for a new boyfriend, outgrows him, searches for her Mr-Right-and-a-half and finds true love where she never thought to look.
Sonya Sones' dazzling accomplished poems build up to a narrative that has you on the edge of your seat: so funny, poignant, and easy to read that you just keep turning the pages to find out what happens next. For anyone who has ever experienced the joys and anxieties of teenage love, this book is irresistible.
'Even in the severe limitations that the modern young impose upon their language, Sonya Sones finds poetry - the poetry of First Things . . . Hers is a voice that the literature of the young has been waiting for' Richard Peck, 2000 Newbery Award winner
