Review of "How to Take the Ex Out of Ex-boyfriend"

How to Take the Ex Out of Ex-BoyfriendHow to Take the Ex Out of Ex-Boyfriend by Janette Rallison

My rating: 3 of 5 stars

-book description from Goodreads
Boyfriends are supposed to be loyal, caring, and handsome. Giovanna's boyfriend, Jesse, has perfected the last two. But when her twin brother, Dante, runs for student body president, Jesse doesn't support Dante, choosing to campaign for his opponent instead. Shouldn't the fact that Jesse is Giovanna's boyfriend count for something? So Giovanna dumps Jesse and becomes Dante's campaign manager. But as the political debates heat up, Giovanna begins to regret breaking up with Jesse, and realizes that maybe her decision wasn't the political strategy she should have used . . . .




I liked this book, but Giovanna was a little too dependant / emotional for me.



Giovanna is her brother's, Dante, campaign manager for Student Body President. Her boyfriend, Jesse, is his opponents campaign manager. In a tiff, Giovanna publicly breaks up with him. After a string of bad dates, she realizes that she gave up what she wants most, Jesse.


High school is a tough time, and it is easy to imagine the awkward situations that teens get themselves in to.  This book is a cute read, there are funny things that happen in this book.  It was an OK read for me.  Not my favorite, but definitely not bad.
