About this title

Synopsis

When her older brother brings his first serious girlfriend home, fourteen-year-old Jane becomes a sometimes invisible but unblinking observer, struggling to understand what goes on between lovers, and how relationships work - and fail to work. Then,in adulthood, Jane has her own push-and-pull relationships: the disastrous trip which teaches her about fidelity; the older man with his exacting demands; and the younger guy who always calls her honey but never uses her real name. In the book's hilarious climax, Jane finally learns that in love there is neither pattern nor promise and there are never rules.
