The (Not Quite) Perfect Boyfriend

Hi guys,
I'v just finished this cute story called The (Not Quite) Perfect Boyfriend by Lili Wilkinson, about a girl - Imogen - who makes up an imaginary boyfriend, when suddenly this 'boyfriend' - exactly how she imagined him - comes into her life as a new student in her school. He gets in on Imogen's secret, but it turns out he isn't as perfect as she thought he was. After Imogen goes through public humiliation, like all good books, she comes out the other side and figures out that the knight in shining armour she was looking for was standing in front of her all along.
This was an interesting book which I can appreciate, as it shows how teenage kids can be scathing, as well as the trouble with relationships.
It took me a while to finish it, but when I did, it was worth it, a feel good book with a happy ending. I would recommend this to teenagers who aren't looking for a very serious book, just a nice quick read with a cute ending.

The (not quite) perfect boyfriend

Hi there,
I am halfway through my first ever E-Book and it is really cool. The book is called 'The (not quite) Perfect Boyfriend, by Lili Wilkinson, and I am officially addicted. The reader is just as fun as a normal book, and it is really fun turning the pages, although I was a bit stuck at first. The pages are shorter than a normal book, so it seems like you'r getting through it faster, and it has the percentage of the book you have read. It is quite easy to use, and comes up with tips before you start reading the book (which you can turn off.) And one of the awesome things about it is that you will never loose your page thanks to the handy - and cute - bookmarks!
