Relation In Favor Of Books Ten Things We Did (and Probably Shouldn't Have)
2 girls + 3 guys + 1 house - parents = 10 things April and her friends did that they (definitely, maybe, probably) shouldn't have.
If given the opportunity, what sixteen-year-old wouldn't jump at the chance to move in with a friend and live parent-free? Although maybe "opportunity" isn't the right word, since April had to tell her dad a tiny little untruth to make it happen (see #1: "Lied to Our Parents"). But she and her housemate Vi are totally responsible and able to take care of themselves. How they ended up "Skipping School" (#3), "Throwing a Crazy Party" (#8), "Buying a Hot Tub" (#4), and, um, "Harboring a Fugitive" (#7) at all is kind of a mystery to them.
In this hilarious and bittersweet tale, Sarah Mlynowski mines the heart and mind of a girl on her own for the first time. To get through the year, April will have to juggle a love triangle, learn to do her own laundry, and accept that her carefully constructed world just might be falling apart . . . one thing-she-shouldn't-have-done at a time.

Reading this book is kind of like watching a couple episodes of Keeping up with the Kardashians. Was it entertaining? Yeah. Did I learn anything or feel mentally enhanced after reading it? Definitely not. If time-consuming mindless fluff is what you're going for, then check this out. I wasn't expecting anything deep going into this, so I'm not disappointed, but it still isn't worthy of a super high rating, but it was humorous and feel-good, so I'll meet in the middle at 3 stars.I so eagerly awaited Ten Things We Did. And honestly, I was more than a little disappointed. Mlynowski gave the teenagers in her book a bad reputation, and I know for sure that I wont be picking up anything else of hers any time soon.I get that this book was supposed to be funny, what with its unrealistic situations and one-liners. I get where Mlynowski was going, but the way she approached her subject made me disgusted and appalled. Before I get to April, who wins the Stupidest Character of the
Rating Clarification: 3.5 StarsNo one is perfect, but we all do the best we can. I guess you have to forgive when you can, move on when you cant, and love your family and friends for who they are instead of punishing them for who they arent.4 girls, 3 guys, 1 cat, 1 hula tub, 1 crazy school year and 0 parents = 10 things April did and probably shouldnt have. Despite this story being highly unrealistic, I found it engaging and pretty funny. There were times where I wanted April to just get caught

Confession: Ive had this book for YEARS. Id bought it on a whim and then completely lost interest. Maybe it was the bubblegum cover (so not cute, btw), or the description, or even the title. Who knows? For some reason, I was under the impression that this was going to be a breezy, fluffy read.That it was not.From what Ive seen thus far, it seems like people are criticizing this book for being all about sex and then condemning the message the author purportedly conveyed via the sex plot.
4.5/5 ☆I really enjoyed this. It was so cute and funny that I couldn't stop smiling. It is perfect for summer days <3But, I also wanted the relationship between April and Hudson to be more developed.
one point for the cover,one point for the title,and two points for the nice story.This story gave a lot of knowledges to me, such as : 1. Don't easily give away your virginity to everyone. I don't know why but me and the book have truly different preception in the meaning of virginity and sex. I vote for sex after marriage. For me, losing our virginity means to give the best to our husband in the first night after we get married, not before marriage, or the worst is we gave it to our boyfriend
NUMBER ONE: (view spoiler)[DO NOT HURT CATS (the cat doesn't die) (hide spoiler)]NUMBER TWO: I guess I am "horrified by the action of teenagers" years old. THIS IS SO BAD.NUMBER THREE: The book tried to go too deep at times. Like, maybe I am just too dense, but I didn't get that April was feeling all abandoned or that Vi was a control freak. So those things felt a bit out of the blue.It was pretty engaging, though.
