Part One

Okay guys, I’m back with the next installment of Mary Anne’s Big Break-Up. Hopefully there’s more to snark on this part. Otherwise, my entries are going to continue to be a bit bleak until Ann gives me something to work with. I think after I finish all of the Friends Forever series, I’ll be going straight back to classic BSC. It’s much ( Read more... )

Mary Anne moans that it’s no one’s business and Kristy agrees.

The details are no one's business, but it IS everyone's business if someone is on or off the market. It just is. When you see someone hot and want to flirt, it would be leading you on to not let you know that he (or she) isn't available. But they both are now. Whether or not either is interested in dating is their private business, but they aren't hooked up anymore.

Mary Anne feels all bitter about the fact that Logan’s friends are supporting him through this break up and mocks how he said ‘Hello Mary Anne’

A) It's like she WANTS him to be alone and hurt. Good god. How dare he have a support system? I may be alone in this, but I don't think he's necessarily a bad guy. He's a 13-year-old who has had one relationship. He wasn't intentionally a dick. There's a lot of room for him to grow up.

B) She'd bitch if he didn't day hello to her too. Damned if he does, damned if he doesn't.

Mary Anne spots Logan looking dejected in the cafeteria and notes that he ( ... )

How are we supposed to snark if the book is realistic? It's like when I'm reading a Karen book and she's being bearable for a long time. What the hell am I supposed to snark then?

Exactly. This book is so hard to snark because its so real. It's driving me crazy. I need the cracktastic unreality of Stoneybrook to fuel me, not a semi-realistic teenagers neurotic views of romance and heartbreak.

We only had football my junior year and that was the 8th grade team. (My school district started out slow on football. First 8th grade team, then a JV team, then a varsity team) and even now, the middle school games are still at night.

“News travels fast in a small town.” - So do germs! I can’t go to my mom’s hometown without ending up the subject of rumours; I’m not a farm girl nor medieval in attitude/dress, so obviously I’m one of those drug-addicted city girls (and can’t hear or understand the nasty stuff being said around me). And I often leave those vacations sick.

“Mary Anne feels all bitter about the fact that Logan’s friends are supporting him through the breakup” - What right would she have to whine about that when she depends on her friends for everything? She can’t see past her own possessive behaviour to see that Logan isn’t the problem, I think. The fact that she can’t see that her independence, or lack of, is a big part of the problem bugs me. And she obviously spends too much time baby-sitting if she’s comparing kids her age to ‘lost little boys in stores’ and wants to console them like she’s being paid a dollar an hour ( ... )
