When high school senior Emily Abbott is hit with the news of her father's sudden job transfer, she believes that things can't be any worse. She has to leave her seemingly perfect life--perfect friends, boyfriend, and hopes of becoming valedictorian behind. Her situation worsens when her boyfriend breaks up with her on the morning of the departure, and she has to cope with heartbreak all the way to Boston. Luckily, she reconnects quickly with old friends and tries as hard as she can to blend in. When, however, the senior class is forced to contribute to a time capsule, she and her friends hatch a plan to make a guide that will supposedly help future girls deal with heartbreak. They find the perfect model to help them finish the guide-an "evil" ex-boyfriend named Luke. As the girls become more involved in the project, they see that not only Luke has things to learn--they do as well. I would recommend this book to teens who need a really quick and easy read. This has a fun, upbeat pace and twists in the plot make this book all the more interesting. I read the entire book on an airplane!
