Commentary Conducive To Books Why We Broke Up
I'm telling you why we broke up, Ed. I'm writing it in this letter, the whole truth of why it happened. Min Green and Ed Slaterton are breaking up, so Min is writing Ed a letter and giving him a box. Inside the box is why they broke up. Two bottle caps, a movie ticket, a folded note, a box of matches, a protractor, books, a toy truck, a pair of ugly earrings, a comb from a motel room, and every other item collected over the course of a giddy, intimate, heartbreaking relationship. Item after item is illustrated and accounted for, and then the box, like a girlfriend, will be dumped.Rating Appertaining To Books Why We Broke Up

ALL OF THE FIVE STARS! Okay so, I just wanna start by saying that this is going to be one of those heart felt and emotional reviews, cause i really connected with the story and it really had an impact in my life - sounds dramatic but it did. I had no intention of reading this book, whatsoever. I got it because I won a box of books last year and this book just happened to be in it, it was just one of those books that somehow happens to rest upon your shelf. No biggie. A certain series ofLet me tell you, book, why we broke up. You were in first person, the narrator being a girl who (constantly, constantly) was being called arty, different, and who always hated it, who always repeated herself and wrote in run on sentences like it would sound different. And that's why we broke up. Her boyfriend, this different girl's boyfriend, is a jock, and quite clearly from day 1 an asshat and a loser, and yet she dated him and loved him within two weeks of ever knowing him, and it was such a
So this is it. The definitive breakup story. The ode to all those who loved not wisely but too well and were caught like a deer in headlights by some hackneyed plot-twist, irony, that everyone could see but them.Handler could had written this book just for me. But not because I identified with his generic and lowest-common-denominator story of heartbreak, but because I am "breaking up" with one of my favorite authors who has released one of the most disappointing works of "modern literature"

Rating: 3.5 Stars I read this novel last week, so I dont remember much of how I felt while I read it, except from what I have to go by from my notes, but I do remember thinking, the very moment I finished it, that I hated it. I hated this book with a passion. Ironically, it wasnt even because I didnt like it it was because I liked it so much, I was so sucked into this tale and its characters and wrapped up in this crazy, beautiful, teenage dream that was the life of the main character
3.5 stars What happens when an arty, different kind of girl like Min dates a popular, selfish prick like Ed? Why We Broke Up happens. ^^Remember how your English teacher brought out the artistic and literary side of you when she/he tricked/forced you into telling something about yourself through show and tell? This book is kind of written that way. It is about a box of Ed Slaterton treasures Min Green collected during the entire course of their relationship. It is a very cute concept with the
This is a book where describing what happened kind of misses the point, because it's not really about that. But, I've gotta start somewhere, so ... it's written as an angry, passionate, heart-broken and heart-breaking letter, from Minerva Green, a quirky off-beat cinephile, to her former boyfriend, king jock and jerk, Ed Slaterton. The letter accompanies a box, filled with "the prizes and debris of this relationship, like the glitter in the gutter when the parade has passed, all the everything
Why We Got Together by Reynje Dear Why We Broke Up, It wasnt that long ago that I thought I would be writing you a break-up letter. A terse, thanks-but-no-thanks, its-not-me-its-you-now-kindly-get-lost note. I can be acerbic when Im annoyed and there it is, the admission, the honest truth that I thought you would annoy me. It makes me wonder why I buy books sometimes, whether its truthfully the book itself I want or the simple act of acquisition I crave. Is it the words I tell myself I need,
