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: middot; Noel is writing her notes, middot; Jackson is giving her frogs, middot; Gideon is helping her cook, middot; and Finn is making her brownies. middot; Rumors are flying, and Ruby’s already sucky reputation is heading downhill. Not only that, she’s also: middot; running a bake sale, middot; learning the secrets of heavy metal therapy, middot; encountering some seriously smelly feet, middot; defending the rights of pygmy goats, middot; 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.
