Confessions of a Boyfriend Stealer by Robynn Clair

A girl named Genesis is in high school and confesses what really went on between her best friends and their boyfriends. Did she really steal her two best friend’s boyfriends? Is she telling the truth? She created a blog to let everyone know what really happened. Genesis comes from a family that has a lot of money. Her mother, Angela Bell, is more like a best friend than a mom. Her sister, Shay, competes with her mom when it comes to boys and they are not your average American family. Genesis has all of this going on in her life.

Genesis is in a group called the Terribles. She has two best friends named Cj Thompson and Tasha Dombrowski. These girls are portrayed as mean girls; they look pretty, steal guys from other girls and don't care. Genesis feels she is the third wheel because she hasn't had much luck with guys. But when two of her best friend’s boyfriends, Nick Pilates and Chi Nguyen, want to get to know Genesis a little better, she feels guilty and tries to tell Cj and Tasha but they just won't listen. So Genesis steps up and takes control. What's a girl to do?

I thought this book was for girls who are in cliques or have best friends who steal boyfriends. It's not the type of book I would read again. I think girls who love reading books about mean girls or who have been in a situation where their best friend's boyfriend likes them would like reading this book. Also, it has a format of a blog.
