This was a
cute book with a great premise and it made me want to dump Facebook, cell
phones, and all technology. My only
drawback was the main character – Mallory – I found her whiny and annoying at
times (but I loved, loved, loved her sister.)
This is a good book if you’re looking for something quick and easy.

When Mallory
discovers that her boyfriend, Jeremy, is cheating on her with an online
girlfriend, she swears off boys. She also swears off modern technology.
Inspired by a list of goals her grandmother made in 1962, Mallory decides to
"go vintage" and return to a simpler time (when boyfriends couldn't
cheat on you online). She sets out to complete grandma's list: run for
pep club secretary, host a dinner party, sew a homecoming dress, find a steady,
do something dangerous. But the list is trickier than it looks. And obviously
finding a steady is out . . . no matter how good Oliver (Jeremy's cousin)
smells. But with the help of her sister, she'll get it done. Somehow.
Lindsey Leavitt perfectly pairs heartfelt family moments, laugh-out-loud humor, and a little bit of romance in this delightful contemporary novel.
