(3) YA Roo has been a social leper since she tried to steal her ex back from her best friend, violating the rules of their "Boy Book." Now a junior, she tentatively explores new friendships while dealing with panic attacks. Lockhart allows issues of friendship and love their full weight and complexity while maintaining the endearing hilarity of her protagonist's wry narrative.
