Dumped is the ultimate advice book for teens who are dealing/dealt with a break-up. I don't ever recall getting dumped... Ok... I'm lying. After my first break-up, I remember being immured in my room for hours. Getting dumped can be one of the most horrendous things you will experience in life, but life does go on.

Dumped details what to do after being dumped, the emotions you feel after being dumped, avoiding temptations & pitfalls, learning how to cope, and ultimately learning how to get over it. One of the things I loved about this book is the Quizzes & lists.

For example: 20 Movies to Curl Up and Cry With - 10 Clever Ways to Make Him Regret it.

The book is the perfect size to slide in and out of your purse without anyone noticing.

As some parents can attest to when their kids become teenagers it can be hard to get them to open up about certain things. I think Dumped is a perfect conversation starter with your kids, and if they aren't ready to talk about it, slip the book on their dresser and walk away.

A short and sweet guide to surviving a break-up that offers some time-tested advice mixed with a healthy dose of humor.

Great for teens.

The lesson i learned in this book was to move on. and just let go to find something new. When your a teenager you go through alot of make ups and break ups. so you'll get over it.

I read this one to see if it would be a good one to add to my collection. It was okay, but nothing stellar. And there were a couple of points where I was just like *SIGH*
