Crazy Things Girls Do For Love, The (2011) - Plot & Excerpts
I usually am not a judger of books but as I started reading this book, I began to not like it more and more because its not the kind of book that I take to very well because I don't find that kind of story line like able. I mean come on having a story line about girls going crazy over a boy that's obnoxious coming from a girl. I'm not feminist but I just rather read books that have a great story to them and make you think long and hard about what you have just read once you're done. Books that make you have so many emotions and feelings that you didn't even knew you had when reading the book. I might be a deeper thinking but I don't know I just find books like this book unlike able for me so I rate it a one not even a one at that. Sorry to be harsh but that's how I feel as a reader. This is a light read about the lengths to which several high school girls Maya, Sicilee, and Waneeda) will go to attract the attention of a new classmate who is cool and good looking (Cody). When Cody decides that the Environmental Club is his ticket to instant popularity, the almost defunct club finds itself reenergized with many new members and a few new ideas. In their efforts to impress Cody, these girls find themselves putting real effort into learning about environmental issues, and even behaving in uncharacteristic ways, risking alienating their friends. The story is mostly enjoyable if not too complex. The characters are mostly likeable though somewhat shallowly drawn. The thing about the book that most annoyed me was Maya's habit of exclaiming "Gott im himmel" to introduce almost everything she said. "Like," "Oh, my God," "Are you kidding me?" "Duh" and any number of other exclamations would have been irritating, but far more realistic.

Very good way of saying people can change you, but don't change for a boy.
