Hi! I read the last three books of "The Boyfriend Quartet" when I was in high school and I love it!!! (The school didn't have the first book for me to read, but I got the basic info about the first book from the other books). Is that bad of me to not read the very first book?
Note: Continuing to answer OLD OLD questions I never saw during my hiatus from Tumblr!
NEVER FEEL BAD ABOUT READING or NOT READING, unless you were assigned something for school. Life is too short and reading is too much fun.
I abandon books part-way through all the time.
But if you're curious, book 1 in the Ruby Oliver Quartet is THE BOYFRIEND LIST. The covers are like a million years old but I think they're still damn funny if I say so myself. A tiny sample:
1. Adam (but he doesn’t count.)
2. Finn (but people just thought so.)
3. Hutch (but I'd rather not think about it.)
4. Gideon (but it was just from afar.)
5. Ben (but he didn't know.)
6. Tommy (but it was impossible.)
7. Chase (but it was all in his mind.)
8. Sky (but he had someone else.)
9. Michael (but I so didn't want to.)
10. Angelo (but it was just one date.)
11. Shiv (but it was just one kiss.)
12. Billy (but he didn't call.)
13. Jackson (yes, okay, he was my boyfriend. Don't ask me any more about it.)
14. Noel (but it was all a mistake.)
15. Cabbie (but I'm undecided.)
Before anyone reading this thinks to call me a slut -- or even just imagines I'm incredibly popular --- let me point out that the above list includes absolutely every single boy I have ever had the slightest, little, any-kind-of-anything with.
Boys I never kissed are on this list.
Boys I never even talked to are on this list.
Doctor Z told me not to leave anyone off. Not even if I think he's unimportant.
In fact, especially if I think he's unimportant.
Doctor Z is my shrink, and she says that for purposes of the list, the boyfriends don't have to be official. Official, unofficial -- she says it doesn't matter, so long as I remember the boy and something about what happened.
