Fans of Judy Blume and Jenny Han are sure to fall head-over-heels
for this funny, sweet story of crushes, competition, and the
confusing reality of middle school. "Heartbreak is for suckers."
When Jenna Sakai gets dumped over winter break, it confirms what
she learned from her parents' messy divorce: Relationships are
risky and only lead to disappointment. So even though she still has
to see her ex-boyfriend Elliott at newspaper club, Jenna is going
to be totally heartless this semester - no boys, just books. But
keeping her cool isn't always easy. Jenna's chief competition for a
big journalism scholarship is none other than Elliott. Her best
friend Keiko always seems busy with her own boyfriend. And
cute-but-incredibly-annoying Rin Watanabe keeps stealing her booth
at the diner she's been hiding at every day after school. Rin is
every bit as stubborn and detached as Jenna. And the more Jenna
gets to know him, the more intriguing a mystery he seems. Soon
Jenna is starting to realise that being a loner is kind of, well,
lonely. And letting people in might just be a risk worth taking.
Flirting, friendship and fallouts, this has relatable themes for
tween readers Sweet, smart writing with emotional depth: like a
