Boyology: A Teen Girl's Crash Course in All Things Boy Cover

 

Synopses & Reviews

Review:

"This humorous guide provides insight into the elusive universe of boys, using questions, answers and quotations from real teens. Nebulous topics like 'hooking up' ('by definition, hook-ups don't lead to boyfriends') and being 'just friends' (in one image, a beaming girl is clearly thinking 'skateboarding partner' while the boy beside her has a heart in his thought bubble) are addressed with oodles of pop-culture literacy. The plethora of 'how to' sections (an illustrated guide to kissing), lists (including mood-setting playlists featuring Avril Lavigne and Sleater-Kinney) and 'Extra Credit' quizzes provide an entertaining tour of love and dating etiquette for beginners. More seasoned daters may find the advice formulaic. Ages 13 — up. These books have unique formats that invite reader participation and work particularly well with their content." Publishers Weekly (Copyright Reed Business Information, Inc.)

Synopsis:

A crash course in understanding boys, Boyology delves into the many mysteries of teen guys, dissecting flirting tactics, offering dating suggestions, and providing tips on forming solid friendships. It's an up-close-and-personal look at boys in their natural habitats, with analyses by teen girlsand insight from the boys.
