More About This Book

Overview

The only thing more intense than teen love is a break-up with the uncertainty of a make-up. This exciting new series serves up two tales of love that will shake-up your assumptions of relationships. So buckle up, it's time to get real, learn to deal, and move on with this first volume of The Break-Up Diaries.

Hot Boyz Ni-Ni Simone

Chance Kennedy always gets what she wants, even if she has to bend the truth to do it. She's set her sights on extremely fine and college-bound Ahmad King, and she will do anything to become his girl. There's only one problem: she didn't count on love entering the picture. Now she's scrabbling to make things right before the tiny white lie she's told to lock down her guy blows up in everyone's face. Now, the girl with everything may lose it all. . .

The Boy Trap Kelli London

Pretty, popular, and with mad potential, Gabrielle Newton is, hands down, the girl to know. But Gabrielle only has time for Tyler Scott, Lakeview High's hottest new athlete. He's the golden ticket to her dream: becoming an NBA star's pampered wife. But when Gabrielle plays Tyler one time too many, suddenly more than their relationship is on the line . . .

Editorial Reviews

School Library Journal
Gr 9 Up—Readers of teen urban fiction will love these two preachy but engaging novellas about love gone wrong. Both feature African-American teens who learn lessons about telling the truth and being themselves. In Simone's "Hot Boyz," high-maintenance but lovable 16-year-old Chance lies about her age to date Ahmad, 22. All but ignored by her wealthy parents, she prefers staying at her grandmother's house and spending time with her friends in their Atlanta neighborhood. When her lies have terrible consequences for Ahmad, Chance realizes the error of her ways. The story has action, romance, and plenty of teen slang. In London's "The Boy Trap," Breezy is an even more self-centered teen intent on trapping a future NBA star so she sets her sights on newcomer Tyler and decides to seduce him. Breezy is sure that if she can marry him and have his babies, she will share in his eventual fame and fortune. Ultimately, however, her gold-digger ways cause grief, and she realizes that she needs to succeed on her own terms. While the lessons imparted by both stories are not subtle, the main characters are memorable, there are plenty of plot twists and turns, and readers will enjoy the pop culture and fashion references. Teens who loved the "Drama High" series (Dafina) and Simone's full-length novels will definitely reach for this book.—Miranda Doyle, San Francisco Unified School District
Kirkus Reviews

Lessons, frenemies and posturing abound in this pair of novelette-length bittersweet romances featuring African-American teens.

Simone's (Shortie Like Mine, 2008) "Hot Boyz" stars confident 16-year-old Chance, who prefers Atlanta's rougher Bankhead neighborhood to her rich mother's gated community. After catching her "trial run" boyfriend cheating at a Bankhead club, Chance meets her "chocolate knight," the handsome, hard-to-get and, as it turns out, 22-year-old Ahmad. As their romance deepens, Chance becomes guiltily entangled in the lies she tells both her friends and Ahmad about their respective ages until, inevitably, a somewhat contrived string of bad decisions brings the truth to light. In debut author London's "Boy Trap," head cheerleader Gabrielle, aka Easy Breezy, plans to follow in her mother's footsteps: snag an NBA-bound high-school basketballer, "trap" him by having sex and guarantee herself a future as a millionaire. But Tyler, the baller on whom she sets her sights, won't take the bait. As Breezy's disturbingly manipulative schemes escalate, so do Tyler's often didactic admonishments: "First, you have to be good enough for yourself." The language in both stories is fresh and appealing, filled with contemporary slang, wordplay and censor-friendly modified curses ("Oh, hello!"), and each protagonist's pride has enough cracks to let the reader in.

Fun, if heavy-handed. (Fiction. 12 & up)
