Review: Anatomy of a Boyfriend

I received this book for free from Author, FTC: Exchange for honest opinion in exchange for an honest review. This does not affect my opinion of the book or the content of my review.

Before this all happened, the closest I'd ever come to getting physical with a guy was playing the board game Operation. Okay, so maybe that sounds pathetic, but it's not like there were any guys at my high school who I cared to share more than three words with, let alone my body.

Then I met Wes, a track star senior from across town. Maybe it was his soulful blue eyes, or maybe my hormones just started raging. Either way, I was hooked. And after a while, he was too. I couldn't believe how intense my feelings became, or the fact that I was seeing—and touching—parts of the body I'd only read about in my Gray's Anatomy textbook. You could say Wes and I experienced a lot of firsts together that spring. It was scary. It was fun. It was love.

And then came the fall.

This book is one that contains scenes not suited for younger children (sex).

The cover of the book somewhat reminds me of the child game: Operation. I never liked that game because I never had the patience. That is probably why I am not majoring in pre-med or anything of that sort. Secondly, this book looked like it is a breakdown of a boyfriend which I found somewhat interesting but this book surprised me; having its ups and downs for me.

So the storyline was interesting because it felt like this book was only focusing about one topic and that is where I found my down side to it. I felt that this whole book only focused on the said topic and all that filled the lines was drama. I found myself pulled in further only because I wanted to see where this book would go and what would happen in the end. I am not sure what to expect but curiosity is the word that helped me get through the book.

Dom was a girl that I held respect for but I quickly became someone who still found her character fascinating but also on the verge of driving me insane. I wanted her to do so many different things but seriously this girl really made me think of her being bad example for all girls. There is always a limit to things and she went passed them by the middle of the book. Yes her friend was much help in my opinion due to her own habits but she did offer Dom some good advice sparingly throughout the book.

Okay so if you saw my little note at the topic, well this is basically what this book focuses on. Come on let us be real almost everyone knows that teenagers have sex or they are bound to someday. I think that yes it should be handled seriously but it is out there and there is going to be one day when you are going have the where do babies come from talk with your child if you have one and the best way to tell them is to be out front with. Don’t beat around the bush because personally when people hide things from people, that just causes a rebellion.

So Ms. Snadowsky writes a compelling book that brings out a topic that is something all parents think about with their teenagers. This book presents the idea out front not holding anything back.

I give it 4 bites!
