Ruby Oliver #1: The Boyfriend List (Carton of 24 Paperback Books)

Ruby Oliver is 15 and has a shrink. She knows it's unusual, but give her a break—she's had a rough 10 days. In the past 10 days she:

• lost her boyfriend (#13 on the list)
• lost her best friend (Kim),
• lost all her other friends (Nora, Cricket),
• did something suspicious with a boy (#10),
• did something advanced with a boy (#15),
• had an argument with a boy (#14),
• drank her first beer (someone handed it to her),
• got caught by her mom (ag!),
• had a panic attack (scary),
• lost a lacrosse game (she's the goalie),
• failed a math test (she'll make it up),
• hurt Meghan's feelings (even though they aren't really friends),
• became a social outcast (no one to sit with at lunch)
• and had graffiti written about her in the girls' bathroom (who knows what was in the boys'!?!).

But don't worry—Ruby lives to tell the tale. And make more lists.
