This humorous sequel to Me & Miranda Mullaly depicts the further trials of the three eighth-grade boy protagonists as they struggle with their first boy-girl relationships. Readers will readily identify and sympathize with narrators Sam, Chollie, and Duke--and with their girlfriends, Erica, Miranda, and Sharon (respectively)--all of whom are well-developed characters. A satisfying ending delivers a bit of wisdom without preaching.

A hilarious tale of mischief and misunderstandings as three love-struck eighth-grade boys, Sam, Duke and Chollie, each attempt to gain the favor of their shared crush, Miranda. The story is easy to follow, told in first-person narration alternating among each of the well-developed protagonists. Young teen readers will relate to and laugh at the (sometimes cringe-worthy) trials of Miranda's admirers.
