A Blind Spot for Boys 

Justina Chen 

PD: 08.12.14 by Little Brown for Young Readers

Summary:

Shana has always had a blind spot for boys. Can she trust the one who's right in front of her?

Sixteen-year-old Shana Wilde is officially on a Boy Moratorium. After a devastating breakup, she decides it's time to end the plague of Mr. Wrong, Wrong, and More Wrong.

Enter Quattro, the undeniably cute lacrosse player who slams into Shana one morning in Seattle. Sparks don't just fly; they ignite. And so does Shana's interest. Right as she's about to rethink her ban on boys, she receives crushing news: Her dad is going blind. Quattro is quickly forgotten, and Shana and her parents vow to make the most of the time her father has left to see. So they travel to Machu Picchu, and as they begin their trek, they run into none other than Quattro himself. But even as the trip unites them, Quattro pulls away mysteriously... Love and loss, humor and heartbreak collide in this new novel from acclaimed author Justina Chen.

Thoughts: 

 God knows I've dated enough losers in aluminum foil hoping he would turn out to be my knight in shining armor and kissed enough frogs hoping to find Mr. Forever instead of Mr. Right now. I have always found that when I stopped looking for "the right one" he came up when I was least expecting it. Maybe this book will give me a new perspective!

  1. Oooo! I love books that mix travel, romance, and family troubles. Plus, I hear good things about Justina Chen! You should totally check out Wish You Were Italian by Rae Carson. I think it would be right up your alley. :)

    Thanks for visiting The Hiding Spot!
