Product Description
What would you do......if your best friend were plotting the annihilation of a small, furry neighborhood poodle? Or if your parents up and moved to an Outward Bound-type survival camp in the middle of the desert? How about if your grandmother bought you new bras and underwear -- and you actually thought they were a teensy bit, umm, sexy? Most people would not react well. Tess Whistle's junior year of high school is off to a fairly bizarre start. One might even say her life is spiraling out of control. But with her sense of humor firmly intact and her first real boyfriend on her arm, Tess is dealing with the ridiculous twists quite well, thankyouverymuch. Just wait until her shoes explode.

• It Was Okay 09 December, 2007
LOST IT by Kristen Tracy was an okay read for me. The characters of the book were very realistic and I enjoyed reading some of the situations the narrator had to go through because the situations and problems she had experienced I could kind of relate them to my own and I find that to be very important. Why read a book if you can't relate to the main character(s)? I also like the little side plots such as her crazy best friend (everyone has one of those) who feels neglected because of her father starting a new relationship with another woman. But the only thing that caused me to give this book three stars instead of four or even five was because of some of the dull parts in the book and the ending. I suppose the dull parts were put in there to help proceed the story along which is fine with me but what got to me the most was the ending, it seemed unfinished to me and reminded me of the ending of some low-budgeted chick flick.

• Great Book. Fast Read 28 May, 2008
Amazing book for me personally.
The story line is a bit slow at the start, but once you get about 50 pages in you'll be hooked! I sat down and read this book in 2 hours. I loved it. Any teen who's been in a relationship will be able to relate to this book. It made me laugh, cry, and look at myself in a different light. Most teen girls can probably relate to the lead character Tess, her humor is perfect and really lightens the mood in a serious scene. Her grandma I personally thought was the best character. Her witty sense of humor completed the book. While many people have said the book is graphic I didn't find it to be that way. It never goes into detail and it doesn't cross the line in my opinion.
Great book you won't regret reading it =)

• Zzzzzzzzzz 08 June, 2008
I found this book to be the most boring book I have ever read in my entire life. The plot is just really really jumpy, and all over the place.
The friend, just annoying. Always talking about blowing up a dog. It is just so out of nowhere.
There are SOME decent parts to the book, I admit. But about 3/4 of it, just made me tired. Almost didn't even get through the whole book.

• Stick With This Book! 21 March, 2008
At around page 23 I was seriously considering returning this book... it was just too weird and random and I just didn't like it.
And yet, I wasn't putting it down. It was around page 93 where I actually started liking this book, which, I'll admit is a very long time to wait for a book to get good... but it was worth it. The randomness ties in eventually since the book starts out with the MC already knowing everything.
Lost It was a pretty good book, it's one of those books where you want to smack the characters around a few times for being so thick headed... and I don't like the way things were handled with Tess's best friend, I felt like there was a much bigger problem than the way the author portrayed it.
This book does have an open ending, which I'm pretty sure no one likes, but it's still a good book.

• Funny And Sweet 17 June, 2008
This book is written with a lazy humor that is hard to find. It literally made me laugh out loud at some of the situations and I found it a very enjoyable read for teens of all age. Though, as the title hints, it does focus on a girl losing her virginity, there are also life lessons along the way. Overall, definitely a worthy read!
