More About This Book

Overview

My name is Robin.

This book is about me.
It tells the story of what happens
when after almost 15 pathetic years of loserdom,
the girl of my dreams finally falls for me.

That seems like it would be
a good thing, right?
Only it turns out to be
a lot more complicated than that

Because I'm not gonna lie to you --
there are naked women involved.
Four of them, to be exact.
Though not in the way you might think.

Don't get me wrong -- my girlfriend's amazing.
But the way things have been going lately,
I'm starting to believe that the only thing worse
than not getting what you want,

is getting it.

Editorial Reviews

Publishers Weekly

Returning with a sequel to the well- received What My Mother Doesn't Know, Sones delivers another engaging story about young love, this time from the boy's perspective. This free-verse novel opens with 14-year-old Robin worrying that he will soon be dumped by his girlfriend, Sophie (star of the previous book), who is being ostracized at school for dating "the guy whose last name people use as a diss." ("Let's face it./ I'm the type of guy/ who doesn't even have any buddies/ on my buddy list," Robin says.) But Sophie is her own person and together they form a plan to rise above the derision by laughing at themselves. Robin is believable and endearing as he struggles to make sense of his devotion to his "amazing girlfriend," his nascent sexuality and his attraction to Tessa, a girl in his art class at Harvard who is refreshingly unaware that he is the butt of jokes at his high school. When Sophie catches him kissing Tessa, Robin has to do something dramatic to win her back. Concrete poems and comics punctuate the text, adding interest to the form. The author's fans will be delighted to have a new installment written with the same raw honesty and authentic voice as the original. Final art not seen by PW. Ages 12-up. (June)

KLIATT
To quote the review of the hardcover in KLIATT, May 2007: This is a sequel to What My Mother Doesn't Know, telling the story of Sophie and Robin's romance from Robin's point of view. Since he has always been a social outcast, he is used to it; but it kills him to see Sophie become an outcast once she reveals to their high school world that the two are a couple. Sones writes Robin's story using poetry throughout, in the poetry-novel format. Sophie is swept away by her romance with Robin, sharing their love of art and their intelligence, but she is hurt when her friends reject her. The social bullies have always picked on Robin, and now they add Sophie to their victim list. Robin finds a way to feel good about himself when he starts taking art classes at nearby Harvard University and is accepted easily by the college students, who don't know he is a high school freshman. Things get better at high school for Robin and Sophie, and Sones (through Robin) tells how that happens. This is a good choice for creative students who sometimes feel ostracized in high school. It deals honestly with sexual feelings. Strong emotions of love, of humiliation, anger, and shame drive the poetry and the reader forward. Reviewer: Claire Rosser

VOYA
This book picks up almost immediately where What My Mother Doesn't Know (Simon & Schuster, 2001/VOYA October 2001) left off. Popular Sophie and outcast Robin-better known by his last name, Murphy, which has become synonymous with "loser"-have just spent an amazing winter break together falling in love. Now it is back to reality-school. Robin is nervous that Sophie will ignore him, even expects her to do so, but when Sophie joins him for lunch, Robin's happiness is only dampened by the fact that her association with him has now made Sophie a pariah as well. Even Sophie's two best friends have abandoned her, so it becomes Sophie and Robin against the world. Unfortunately their classmates are not the only problem that they face. As Robin starts taking a college-level art class and Sophie's friend Rachel sees the error of her ways, the couple spends time apart and it could be the downfall of their relationship. Sones's wonderful free verse comes from Robin's point of view this time, but it is just as authentic and heart wrenching as Sophie's voice in the first book. Teens will devour this book and again will be left wishing for more at the end. Both Sophie and Robin are unforgettable characters, and their trials and triumphs are completely recognizable and easy to relate to by teens their age. It is not necessary to have read the first book to understand the second, so buy multiple copies-it will fly off the shelves.
School Library Journal

Gr 8 Up
This sequel to What My Mother Doesn't Know (S & S, 2001) stands completely on its own. Robin's life at Cambridge High School is miserable. The arty outsider's last name becomes the pejorative slang of the school-as in, "Don't be such a Murphy." His lot improves, however, when popular Sophie becomes his girlfriend despite the detriment to her reputation. Better still, the freshman is invited to audit an art class at Harvard. It is his homecoming; for once, he is the comedian rather than the butt of jokes. One of the college freshmen even shows some romantic interest in him. Written as a novel in verse, this title is a fast-paced, page-turning romp that gives authentic voice to male youth even when it is painfully truthful.
—Leah KrippnerCopyright 2006 Reed Business Information.

Kirkus Reviews
Six years after What My Mother Doesn't Know sizzled onto the scene, Sones returns to continue the story of teen sweethearts Sophie Stein and Robin Murphy. Her signature free-verse poems give class-loser Robin voice this time, allowing him to describe his feelings as Sophie's public acceptance of him makes her a social pariah; as he explores the physical and emotional roller-coaster of first love; as he remakes himself from outcast to one-of-the-cool-crowd when he audits a Harvard art class-and finds himself attracted to one of that cool crowd. The excruciatingly painful dynamics of the high-school in-crowd receive a thorough treatment, as does Robin's ambivalence with them: He recognizes Sophie's pain at her rejection by formerly close friends, but at the same time, he understands that this very rejection makes her need him all the more. Robin emerges as an appealingly flawed character whose desires-for love, for acceptance, for sex-will be instantly recognized by readers. If this offering lacks some of the intensity of its predecessor, it nevertheless provides both an opportunity to revisit two likable characters and the advantage of a fresh viewpoint.

Piece of Advice from Me to Me

Better brace yourself,
loser.

Because you
are about to be dumped.

Big time.

But It'll All Be Over in a Minute

All
be over
and done with.
Sophie's just standing there
staring at me
from across the cafeteria.

Geez.
Look at her.
Have you ever seen anyone so beautiful
in your life?

How could a girl like her
ever have wanted
to be with a guy like me?
Even just for two weeks?

Grace is waving her over.
Rachel's calling her.
"Fifi. Hey, Fee, we're over here!"

But I'm calling her, too.
Calling her with my eyes.
Come to me, Sophie.

Come to me . . .

Aw, Man

Who am I kidding?
I know exactly
what she's gonna do.

A second from now
she'll yank those killer blue eyes of hers
away from mine

and walk straight over to Rachel and Grace.
Like I'm not even here.
Like the best two weeks of my life

never

even

happened.

But They Did Happen

With everyone gone for winter break,
Sophie and I were
the only two people on the planet.

It was sort of like we were inside
one of those little snow globes,
you know?

Just the two of us,
completely alone,
chilling under that thick glass dome --

skating
and drawing and dancing
and kissing . . .

And I practically went into shock
when Sophie looked straight into my eyes
and told me she loved me.

Even if I come down
with a severe case of amnesia,
I'll never forget those two weeks.

And I'll Never Forget Those Kisses, Either

Because
making out with Sophie
was a very big deal for me.

See,
I'm not exactly what you'd call
the most experienced guy in the world.

Okay.
So I'm the least experienced guy
in the world.

Okay.
So Sophie was the first girl
I ever laid lips on.

But it was definitely
worth waiting
fourteen years for.

    Loved It!

    I love Sonya Sones. All of her books are written in the same lyrical style. This book is slightly different from her others though, as it is the first book she wrote from a boys point of view. However, Sones still manages to fill it with a perfect understanding of what a teenage guy goes through. What My Mother Doesn't Know is probably one of my favorite books, and I loved getting to spend more time in Sophie and Robins world. It was a very nice sequel and a wonderful read.

    A reviewer

    In the book ¿What my Girlfriend doesn¿t know¿ by Sonya Sones the main character Robin is currently dating one of the most popular girls in school. But once his girlfriend Sophie is seen hanging out Robin her entire reputation is ruined. Robin then joins a collage art class becomes close friends with his new classmates. Soon after Sophie and Robin have a fight and don¿t talk to each other for a few days, so when Robin goes to a birthday party for one of the girls from his art class, he ends up having a one night affair wither. But Sophie finds out about the affair and tries to end their relationship. I found this book to be a great sequel to ¿What my Mother doesn¿t know¿ But I would have to say that the ending did leave you hanging , so if I could change anything about I would add more to the ending.

    Robin Rocks

    What my Girlfriend Doesn`t Know has become one of my favorite books. Sonya Sones writes in such a creative way that I could not put the book down. At first I did not realize that What my Girlfriend Doesn`t Know was asquel to What My Mother Doesn`t Know. But this book is totally different from because this is told from Robin`s point of view not Sophie`s. It tells all about Robin`s love for Sophie and their fun times together. This novel is so cute and very surprising. Any girl who wants to know how boys think should buy this book.

    Great page turner!

    Sonya Sones is a really good author. She did a great job in this book I can say that just kept me reading.
    Robin Murphy. This may seem like a really normal name when you hear it, and it did to me when I read the first pages. But Robin Murphy is really the biggest loser at his high school, and probably the biggest most popular loser. Being the biggest loser at an entire high school must really suck, in addition to hearing your last name being used to call other people losers. For the people at school including the teachers a "Murphy" is someone who is a total loser. But this is all about to change for robin because in a blink of an eye everything is going to get even worst. Robin is pretty much use to being bullied in every sort of way you can be bullied, but now it turns out that he is going out with one of the most popular girls at school. Sophie. At first he couldn't believe it and now time has passed and things have gotten out of hand. Now it is not only Robin getting bullied but Sophie too. But the way that Robin acts to all the bullying they have to face he really wants to make his relationship work. It's not easy to take all that bullying, they try to ignore it especially Robin and this is good and it seems to be working for both of them Robin and Sophie. He knows that if they listen to all the bullying their relationship is going to go down and they really don't want that. But now that they found out that them ignoring the bullying is working, Robin realizes that it is not working for him.
    Now Sophie is the girl that changed Robins life . Sophie is the beautiful girl that Robin describes throughout the whole book. she tires so hard to keep up with their relationship. Sophie is the kind of girl that really doesn't care what they say about her, because she likes doing what her heart tells her to do but she likes to hide her emotions that is something that really makes Robing feel bad. He thinks it's his fault that Sophie doesn't have any more friends anymore. I love that she doesn't listen to all the people talk about Robin and her. But as I was reading I asked myself why she doesn't stand up for herself when they make fun of her because she is going out with robin? I wonder if Sophie loves Murphy that much to just let people make fun of them because they are going out. If she loves him that much why does she change so fast? Why does she do that to him when supposedly they love each other more than ever? Sophie changed in the blink of an eye and Robin was right when he said, "It is just until now I never realized how sad being happy could make a guy feel."
    How can two people that love each other end up changing because they were not afraid to show their love? Robin and Sophie is like a real true story that anyone can live sometime in their life. They thought they showed their love for their good, To show the people that it was them against the world, but they were just not expecting it to be the opposite.
    This book is probably one of the best ones I have ever read. This book is mostly directed to teenagers just like me. Many of my friends have read this book and they all loved it. When I read it I just keep wanting to keep reading because it is a page turner. It's all teenager problems so teenagers would be so into this book. High school is like where the best stories come from aand in this book the story of Robin and Sophie just makes you want to tell the author that you want to know more.
