From E. Lockhart, author of the highly acclaimed, New York Times bestseller We Were Liars, which John Green called "utterly unforgettable," comes The Treasure Map of Boys, the third book in the uproarious and heartwarming Ruby Oliver novels.

Ruby is back at Tate Prep, and it's her thirty-seventh week in the state of Noboyfriend. Her panic attacks are bad, her love life is even worse, and what's more:

Noel is writing her notes, Jackson is giving her frogs, Gideon is helping her cook, and Finn is making her brownies. Rumors are flying, and Ruby's already-sucky reputation is heading downhill.

Not only that, she's also: running a bake sale, learning the secrets of heavymetal therapy, encountering some seriously smelly feet, defending the rights of pygmy goats, and bodyguarding Noel from unwanted advances.

In this companion novel to The Boyfriend List and The Boy Book, Ruby struggles to secure some sort of mental health, to understand what constitutes a real friendship, and to find true love-if such a thing exists.

Industry Reviews

Praise for the treasure map of boys "Fans will continue to root for the authentic if self-centered narrator as she relates both the hilarious and painful moments of her life....They will appreciate her honest insights about the good and bad in everyone."--Publishers Weekly

"Lots of laugh-out-loud moments. Ruby is smart, confused, and often foolish when it comes to love; few characters ring this true. As Ruby would say: complete and utter deliciousness."--Booklist "Ruby is funny--very funny. She expresses herself in a manner both self-depricating and precocious, with a quirky use of language and an appreciation for the absurd that is thoroughly endearing. A definite purchase."--School Library Journal

"Ruby's voice is solidly witty with that edge of hysteria characteristic of today's teen girl narrators. If readers are already interested in her story, this is a must, but even those who've never met her will find this an enjoyable read."--The Bulletin of the Center for Children's Books
