This is a review of "The Lonely Hearts Club" by Elizabeth Eulberg. Penny Lane Bloom (named for the Beatles song) is disappointed when her longtime hopefully-more-than-friend Nate ditches her for another girl.
Just in time for junior year, Penny swears off boys. Forever.
Or at least until she gets out of suburban Illinois.
She starts the Lonely Hearts Club. As girls who've had bad boy experiences join and join--until a peak at 40 members!--Penny is their crowned, gloried leader.
Until she falls in love with a new boy of her own....
Rating: 8.5/10 stars
Price: I actually got this as an advance copy from Scholastic.
Age: 10+ (There isn't anything too bad, but you need to have a bit of a background interest in boys)
