15 Guys, 11 Shrink Appointments, 4 Ceramic Frogs and Me, Ruby Oliver
A Seattle fifteen-year-old explains some of the reasons for her recent panic attacks, including breaking up with her boyfriend, losing all her girlfriends, tensions between her performance-artist mother and her father, and more
In nur 10 Tagen ist in Rubys Leben das totale Chaos ausgebrochen. Denn in dieser Zeit hat sie: von ihrem Freund den Laufpass bekommen (und von ihren Freundinnen die rote Karte), etwas Verdächtiges mit einem Jungen gemacht (und etwas erschreckend weit Fortgeschrittenes mit einem anderen), ein Lacrossespiel verpatzt, eine Mathearbeit verhauen und mehrere Panikattacken durchlebt (insgesamt fünf) und außerdem im Mädchenklo fiese Sprüche über sich gefunden (keine Ahnung, was im Jungenklo steht!). Und dann ist da noch diese Sache mit der Liste und den 15 Namen ... Kein Wunder, dass Ruby einen Seelenklempner braucht. Wer so viel Verrücktes erlebt, hat jede Menge zu erzählen! --- Ruby ist oft lustig, manchmal panisch, ein bisschen verrückt und ein bisschen naiv - also eine ganz normale Fünfzehnjährige, die gerne Listen schreibt, Fußnoten anhängt und mit Witz und Ironie von ihrem „Jungs-Debakel“ erzählt.
