And yeah, I've also been accused of being the clueless guy who doesn’t realize what he just did wrong, so of course I appreciate Ellen and Vanessa setting David straight - of course it's not ok to take two girls out at the same time, even if your plan is to set them up as BFFs. When his life falls apart towards the end of the book, that's when I just knew he's a great character, because he knows exactly what to say to get across exactly what went wrong. Loved what he has to say - all sisters twenty percent off? Absolutely. I really liked David's character, he's hilarious and has sort of an inflated head - but don't we all - and he just had me glued to the book as he's trying to figure out what exactly he wants, whether its girls or colleges or his acting career. I was laughing, I was floored, at times I was just as confused as David was. It helps too that this is the rare book that got a range of responses from me. As the summary says, dangerously insightful. But more than that, this isn't some light fluff read about a guy's high school hijinks trying to climb his way to the top, get into the acting school of his choice, it's about meeting other people's expectations, discovering things about yourself, and figuring out what you want in life. First of all, a contemporary for guys? Hell yes. I really had to think about this one, at times I wasn't quite sure what I'd just read, but I have to say I thoroughly enjoyed Lucky Fools.
