Ruby Oliver is an absolute delight of a character. Yes she has angst and she's a little bit obsessive in thinking about boys a lot of the time, but in my experience, that's pretty typical for a 15 year old girl. What is so enjoyable about Ruby is her hysterical internal monologues and the footnotes that she uses throughout the novel to add small sidenotes to her own narrative. Ruby's story and her growth over the novel are just plain fun to read and I'm really glad there are three more books in this series.
