Book
By the book : a novel of prose and cons / Amanda Sellet.
"A teen obsessed with 19th century literature tries to cull advice on life and love from her favorite classic heroines to disastrous results--especially when she falls for the school's resident lothario"-- Provided by publisher.
As a devotee of classic novels, Mary Porter-Malcolm knows all about Mistakes That Have Been Made, especially by her favorite literary heroines. When some new friends seem to be falling for the same tricks employed since the days of Austen and Tolstoy, she starts compiling the Scoundrel Survival Guide, to help them spot red flags in the dating department. But Mary is better at dishing out advice than taking it. Without a convenient rain-swept moor to flee to, Mary discovers life doesn't follow the same rules as fiction. If she wants a happy ending, she'll have to write it herself. -- adapted from jacket
