E. Lockhart offers a hilarious and realistic look at the trials and tribulations of being a teenager in her third Ruby Oliver novel. Find out what the real treasure is in Ruby’s life as she
creates a treasure map of people she cares for and who return her feelings.
Ruby is back at Tate Prep, and it’s her thirty-seventh week in the state of Noboyfriend. Her panic attacks are bad, her love life is even worse, and what’s more:
繚 Noel is writing her notes,
繚 Jackson is giving her frogs,
繚 Gideon is helping her cook,
繚 and Finn is making her brownies.
繚 Rumors are flying, and Ruby’s already sucky reputation is heading downhill.
Not only that, she’s also:
繚 running a bake sale,
繚 learning the secrets of heavy metal therapy,
繚 encountering some seriously smelly feet,
繚 defending the rights of pygmy goats,
繚 and bodyguarding Noel from unwanted advances.
Ruby struggles to secure some sort of mental health, to understand what constitutes a real friendship, and—if such a thing exists—to find true love.
