The Treasure Map of Boys

Noel, Jackson, Finn, Hutch, Gideon--and me, Ruby Oliver

De: E. Lockhart

Narrado por: Kirsten Potter

From E. Lockhart, author of the highly acclaimed, New York Times bestseller We Were Liars, which John Green called "utterly unforgettable," comes The Treasure Map of Boys, the third book in the uproarious and heartwarming Ruby Oliver novels.

Ruby is back at Tate Prep, and it’s her thirty-seventh week in the state of Noboyfriend. Her panic attacks are bad, her love life is even worse, and what’s more:

Noel is writing her notes, Jackson is giving her frogs, Gideon is helping her cook, and Finn is making her brownies. Rumors are flying, and Ruby’s already-sucky reputation is heading downhill.

Not only that, she’s also: running a bake sale, learning the secrets of heavymetal therapy, encountering some seriously smelly feet, defending the rights of pygmy goats, and bodyguarding Noel from unwanted advances.

In this companion novel to The Boyfriend List and The Boy Book, Ruby struggles to secure some sort of mental health, to understand what constitutes a real friendship, and to find true love—if such a thing exists.©2009 E. Lockhart; (P)2009 Listening Library

Reseñas de la Crítica

Praise for the treasure map of boys:

“Fans will continue to root for the authentic if self-centered narrator as she relates both the hilarious and painful moments of her life….They will appreciate her honest insights about the good and bad in everyone.”—Publishers Weekly

"Lots of laugh-out-loud moments. Ruby is smart, confused, and often foolish when it comes to love; few characters ring this true. As Ruby would say: complete and utter deliciousness.”—Booklist

“Ruby is funny—very funny. She expresses herself in a manner both self-depricating and precocious, with a quirky use of language and an appreciation for the absurd that is thoroughly endearing. A definite purchase.”—School Library Journal

“Ruby’s voice is solidly witty with that edge of hysteria characteristic of today’s teen girl narrators. If readers are already interested in her story, this is a must, but even those who’ve never met her will find this an enjoyable read.”—The Bulletin of the Center for Children’s Books

Love this book, great narrator

This is one of my favorite YA series ever. I really enjoy Kirsten’s narration too. I have listened to the whole series multiple times.

Yes!!!

I read the first two books years ago and was obsessed, but I never had time once I started reading the 3rd book (The Treasure Map of Boys). So about 2 years later I finally finished it because of Audible since I can listen while doing other things it's great!! And I loved the ending how it wasn't the perfect love story ending but it was more realistic. :)

Nice

I like this one more than I had expected. It was a nice follow up to book two.

5 stars for story 1 for narration

Great book, bad narration. Let me start by saying this is a great series. But unfortunately the narrator from book 1 (The Boyfriend List, narrated by Mandy Siegfried) to book 3 was changed. (There is no book 2 audiobook.) The main character, Ruby Oliver, is 17. Mandy made her sound like a 17 year old. Kirsten makes her and the other characters sound middle-aged. Her narration ruined it for me. I got through chapter 1 before turning it off & ended up spending more money on a physical copy of the book. Now Kirsten has a nice voice and I'm sure if she narrated something else, she'd do great, but she just did not work for this. But definitely get this series, especially book 1 on audio, but unless narrators don't bother you, spend your money on one of E Lockhart's other great narrated books.
