Who would like this book? My older sister, who is 16, would love this book. She used to read to me and all the books were like this one.
The goods on this book: Sophie is looking for love. She is tired of having her heart broken over and over again. She was dating this guy named Dylan, and she was in love with him. But then she started to fall out of love with him. There’s this guy named Robin Murphy, and he’s the most ugly guy she has ever met but for some reason she has these fantasies about him. Anyway, she breaks up with Dylan and meets this guy on the Internet. Sophie keeps going from guy to guy trying to find the right guy, but they all just keep treating her worse and worse… Will she wake up one day and see that she deserves better?? I thought this book was great. I loved that it was novel in verse.
