So yesterday I finished my book HOURS before I would get home and didn't have anything else with me to read. Luckily, I was at work, where the lounge has a book exchange-swap-type shelf. On said shelf was The Boy Project, along with several (okay, well, load of) other books that I passed up because I got all excited about the use of science (or at least the scientific method) to influence one's social situation. Being a nerd with social difficulties, I thought The Boy Project would be kind of

Kara is the only one of the girls in her grade who has never had a boyfriend, so she decides to take steps to change that. Kara starts taking notes on the boys in her class and sometimes even the cute guy at the mall. She also starts taking notes on the girls in her class, including "Maybelline" and "The Vine," who always seem to have guys interested in them. Kara's project doesn't quite go as she anticipated, and she ends up getting herself into some embarrassing situations

I loved reading the ARC of THE BOY PROJECT. Kami captured the voice of a middle schooler and whisked me back in time to the awkwardness and joys of those years. I laughed and cringed as Kara used the scientific method to try to figure out boys. My 9-year-old loved DIARY OF A WIMPY KID, and this was the same sort of fun with a smart, artsy girl as a main character. You can read her review at http://laurarenegar.blogspot.com/2011/12... .

This book is for girls only if you are a guy and you will like to read it you can but it not the for a guy. It is about a girl that has never had a boyfriend and she is so sad about so she use something tat may or may not get her very first boyfriend. This book has a lot of drama and if you like drama then this book is for you.

This was a book that both and I my daughters enjoyed. The girls liked it for the humor and how easily they connected with Kara. I liked it because it was refreshing to see a female character who was not only smart, but also not embarrassed by her brains and willing to use her intelligence to get what she wants. Bravo, Kara!

I read an ARC (Advanced Reading Copy) of this book - it will not be released from the publisher until January 2012.
Every middle school girl will love this book. Funny and clever.
Kara will be a positive role model - a smart girl who learns to be self confident and love herself despite not being in the "in crowd."

This book was cute. It was by no means deep or thought provoking in any way. Kara is A single 8th grader who feels alone because all the people are dating. Therefore she must. But there are soooo many cute guys. I did enjoy this but realize it is a fluff book with little redemptive value

Thank you Goodreads for this free giveaway copy of this book. I enjoyed it a lot. Written from the point of view of a middle school girl it gave an entertaining view of what goes on in a girls life and mind. It's well written and should be enjoyable for the 10-14 year old girl.

A thinking girl's take on finding love in the sixth grade. Wry and apt, it kept me guessing. Hope to see more soon from this promising author!

It sounds a lot like E. Lockhart's Ruby Oliver series, which I thoroughly enjoyed. I might check this one out.

This book I would say is about a girl who goes on the journey of finding the right boyfriend. I'm in the middle of this book and sometimes I can't even put the book down. I read it every night before I got to bed and it's like she's reading it to me. I'm at the part when her best friend is dating the guy that she secretly likes. By 'secretly', I mean like she hasn't told her best friend Tabbi.

My daughter read this book and she is almost 12. She loved it because she said it is like reading a girls diary and said she would like to read future books by this same author!
