ALEXA SAYS: Guyaholic, Carolyn Mackler’s latest novel, is a short yet full story of a girl who is crazy about hot guys and physical relationships. At least that is what it seems at first. In truth, Mackler has written a complex novel that goes deeper than any other I’ve read. V, the main character, only knows how to fling, until she meets Sam Almond who tries to change her world. Sam wants commitment, but V won’t let the word love roll off her tongue, let alone the word boyfriend ! Does this have anything to do with V’s mom? Sadly, V doesn’t see her mom nearly enough to know. With fun twists and turns on both sides of the highway, Guyaholic is a quirky, lovable novel that you will sail through!
MARIA SAYS: The story is about a girl named V who attends a hocky game and gets a nasty injury to the head. A boy saves her by placing his sweatshirt around her injured head as she partly blacks out. She comes home to hear that someone is knocking on the door; Sam Almond is his name. The two fall in love with each other. As the relationship goes on, hardships, break-ups, and broken friendships happen. It is a good read. At least it burns off an awfully boring day. I recommend this to a wide range of audiences in the young adult group.
