Why We Broke Up by Daniel Handler
Jodye Rivera
Plot summary
Min, short for Minerva, is a sophomore in high school. She's one of the unpopular kids who is seen as "artsy." She dates Ed Salton, the basketball's team co-captain, for a while but ends up breaking up and this is what the book is focused on. Min has a box full of stuff that either belongs to Ed or reminds her of him. For every item, Min writes him a letter on the way to drop off the box at Ed's house. So why is it they actually broke up?
Critical evaluation
I would rate this book an 8. I would give it an 8 because it paints the picture of all the scenes but still creates suspense for the next letter and makes you want to keep reading.
