Handler, D.  (2011).  Why We Broke Up.  New York, NY:  Little, Brown and Company.  354p. ISBN-10: 0316-12725-6.

Summary:  When Minerva (Min), the artsy, plain girl gains the attention of Ed Slaterton, the popular, handsome co-captain of the basketball team, she cannot believe her amazing luck!  While she feels she does not hold a candle to the many girls who have dated Ed, he convinces her that he loves her because she is different.  She becomes consumed with their relationship and even puts her own friends on hold because she is so sure of his love…until it all comes crashing down around her.  This novel is the letter that Min writes to Ed as she sifts through the box of treasures and memories she’s stored up during their relationship.
