4.0 out of 5 stars Third Naomi Nash novel - waiting for #4!, January 12, 2005
By 
CaiS (Wisconsin, USA) - See all my reviews
This review is from: Beaner O'Brian's Absolutely Ginormous Guidebook to Guys (Mass Market Paperback)
My 14-year old daughter LOVED You are SO Cursed and Chloe, Queen of Denial so I put Naomi on my "auto buy" list for her.

She received Beaner O'Brian's Absolutely Ginormous Guidebook to Guys as an early Christmas gift and loved it! Her Christmas list also contained the following line: "Any Naomi Nash books I don't have."

I've also read all three of Naomi's books and will definitely buy them in the future for my daughter! You can find the details about this book from other reviewers, I just wanted to share that one 14 yeard old girl AND her mother are now "auto-buying" Naomi's books in the Smooch line!

5.0 out of 5 stars Fantastic New Smooch Book from Naomi Nash, November 26, 2004
By 
Erika Sorocco (Southern California, USA) - See all my reviews
(REAL NAME)   
This review is from: Beaner O'Brian's Absolutely Ginormous Guidebook to Guys (Mass Market Paperback)
Maybe it would have been smart for Beaner O'Brian to begin writing her report on the opposite sex immediately after her teacher, Miss Benson, assigned it, that way she could get it over with and move on with her life, and summer vacation. But, alas, she ignored the fact that it wouldn't be easy, and is now stuck with trying to complete the 5000 word assignment in a mere thirty-three days. And, by her calculations, that gives her only forty-seven thousand, five hundred and twenty minutes to complete the dreaded assignment. And as if that weren't enough to deal with, Beaner is now trying to put-up with her step-Mom's goal to be "hip and cool," help her Father's employees find love in all the wrong, and hopefully, sometimes right, places, figure out why she's having feelings towards her sister's ex-boyfriend, and trying to get over her reaction about her sister's disturbing living arrangements. There's not much more a girl can take in a mere month.

Naomi Nash has introduced us to many wonderful characters, but none have been as engaging, and enjoyable to read about as Beaner O'Brian. Beaner is a character who will easily appeal to both female teens, as well as adults who enjoy a good dose of chick-lit. Her quirky personality, and freak-out persona are hilarious, and keep the reader on their toes at all times. Filled with wonderful bits of information about guys at the beginning of every chapter, and thrown into each and every page, this is sure to be a hit with all!

4.0 out of 5 stars fine coming of age tale, November 13, 2004
This review is from: Beaner O'Brian's Absolutely Ginormous Guidebook to Guys (Mass Market Paperback)
Beaner O'Brian has decided that she is no longer a child, but instead she is fifteen year old Harriet who is ready for boys. She toils with a summer school paper on what she anticipates as an easy topic for how hard is it to write a five thousand word essay about the opposite sex. She knows she cannot depend on her stepmother who seems more childish than she nor her older sister Molly who's in a nuptial trance with her wedding date coming soon. Her father is a good example of the older generation salivating over the next era as proven by his marriage to a decade plus younger bimbo.

Beaner realizes her understanding of males ranges somewhere in negative numbers. For instance, Eugene tells her she is "harmless", the type of girl to talk to about other girls he desires. Faris, her father's intern at the TV show he produces, shows interest in Harriet, but she remains in denial feeling cursed by her lack of perception. Of course there is Antonio. As Beaner, call me Harriet, begins to date, she wonders if the male of the species is a cosmic joke?

With the exception of the stepmother who is supposed to provide comic relief but instead slows down the perceptive tale as if she is from Ork, the cast make for a fine coming of age tale in which Beaner call me Harriet struggles to find the truth about boys. Her observations and woes lead to a sudden popularity yet no insight. Middle school readers will appreciate the amusing observations of Harriet as she struggles with what it is all about guys.
