| After spending time in America, Sarah returns home to Australia; but she has changed since puberty. However, during the time she spent in the northern hemisphere, everyone has changed Down Under also; all her female friends have boyfriends. She picks her best male buddy, A. J., to be hers; but he seems reluctant to make his pal “Little” his; and besides he is seeing Clemmie. So Sarah makes a perfect boyfriend, Clay.
Sarah expects a great relationship with her paragon, Clay, who does everything right and makes her imperfect friend, A. J., look pathetic, although deep down in her teenage heart, she would like A. J. and her to be more than friends. However, Sarah soon finds how difficult it is to have a relationship with someone who is perfect; she is beginning to appreciate the flaws of kindhearted A. J. Will she give up her model of the ideal boyfriend for the flesh and blood A. J.? Interestingly, readers will come to the same conclusion that Sarah reached; Clay is so perfect he is boring, though he is the paragon of a boyfriend, at least in Sarah’s mind, in spite of her heart saying otherwise. The pleasant story line, with a touch of the paranormal, is fun for the younger teenage chick lit crowd who will appreciate Sarah’s lament between blokes and boyfriends. A Bird, a Bloke, and a Boyfriend is not intended for adults. Thirteen to fifteen year old female readers will want to choose for Sarah between the clumsily-nice-with-flaws and tediously-nice-perfect. | |||
