Rating: 5 stars
Summary: The Best Book EVER!
Review: I LOVED this book! I don't usually like reading books very often, but I could just not put this one down! This was such a good book to read, because you were able to get inside a guys head. I had NO idea that guys thought about half the things that Jonah's did throughout the course of this book, let alone the entire series. It gave me some perspective on boys and I can't believe that Jonah black is fictional, because he sounds like an awesome guy. The only thing that bothered me about the series is that there are only four books in it! There need to be ALOT more because I can't get enough of this book! I can't agree with Danielle more when I say that I want to meet Jonah Black! Even after reading the book, I still think about it and I, too, want to meet him(even though the book is fictional)! I'm not kidding! I recommend this book to absolutely everyone!!!

Summary: THIS IS THE BEST BO OK EVER
Review: I read this book a few months ago..and I couldn't put down the book. This is the best book ever! For my school in Berlin, Germany, I have to write an author report about Jonah Black, but it's pretty HARD, since I can't find any pictures and biographys about Jonah. (...)
thanks a lot
xoxo

Summary: Awful book!
Review: I read this book after looking at all the positive reviews. I was barely halway through feeling what a waste of time this book was. I finished it feeling extremely unsatisfied. There is nothing special about this book. The whole novel is about why Jonah was expelled but you never actually find out. It leaves you with a lot of unanswered questions. I am definitely not going to waste my time reading the other ones.

Rating: 3 stars
Summary: Mediocre but worth the read.
Review: I really would have liked it if more was told about Jonah in the first book. Sure, this adds mystery, but i don't want to be left totally clueless.
The book basically starts off with Jonah arriving at his old school after being in PA for a while. People are constantly telling him that he hasn't changed. But he knows he has.
The reoccurance of Sophia tells us a lot about Jonah and how his mind words. He divulges into this mindset when he's emotionally disturbed.
It's mediocre, no Perks of Being a Wallflower, but definately worth reading.

Rating: 5 stars
Summary: great book
Review: I thought this was an outstanding book. Black captured my imagination with his wonderful use of words. I felt like I was watching a movie, the way the book put pictures in my head. I recommend this to any teen, boy or girl.

Rating: 5 stars
Summary: Jonah Black is a intersting person with a good story.
Review: If you liked Angus, Thongs and Full Frontal Snogging then you will enjoy this book. Jonah Black is a teenage boy who has a wild imagination and will tell you what exactly he is thinking.

Jonah is back in Florida after spending two years at a school in Pennslyvania and is back to a differnt life then he is use to. He is now stuck being a junior instead of senior like he should be. He is also back living with him mom who is on a rampage about sex and trying to get Jonah to open up more. He is also having to deal with the fact that his younger sister is a senior and he isn't. And then there is Posie and Thorne his two long time friends who just want to know why he was kicked out of his old school..

But of course you can't forget about Sophie and all of Jonah's fantasys about her, but then again who is Sophie. I still can't figure out what she has to do with the story but I am sure that in later books we will find out, and I am also sure we have find out why he was kicked out of his school.

I can't wait to start the rest of the books in this series.

Rating: 4 stars
Summary: WHAT A STUD!
Review: Imagine coming back to your old high school as a senior, after two years, and finding that your classmates say you haven't changed? Imagine finding out that because you got kicked out of boarding school, you have repeat junior year while your friends get promoted. The added humiliation is that your little sister is a genius (of course) and is now a senior as well. Worst of all, your mother is a sex therapist with her own radio talk show and best-selling book... P>All of these things and much, much more are recounted to us via the entries of the infamous BLACK BOOK: DIARY OF A TEENAGE STUD. We watch him navigate through his return to high school with gusto, his reinitiation into his Florida town's social scene, and sort out the mysterious world of relationships with girls, both real and ideal. Jonah's entries are short, witty, and straddle the line between reality and fantasy. Take for instance, the elusive Sophie, the dream girlfriend that Jonah left behind at his boarding school in Maine, yet seems to keep reappearing right before him. His friends Thorne and Posie try to bolster his spirits, yet also wish they could figure out the events surrounding Jonah's expulsion from his boarding school, and the love of his life who does not seem real. Honey, his younger sister kid-genius, offers wry cynicism in her critiques of Jonah's situation and attempts to help him, as well as scorning of their mother. At the end of the book, we still don't know why Jonah has been expelled, if he will rejoin his senor class, who Sophie is, and what will become of his relationship with Posie. On top of that, Jonah suffers a severe swimming accident, and the reader is left in anguished suspense.

This book is 240 pages long but I read it in two days! It is fast, witty, and engaging. It successfully reveals the inner-workings of the male teenager's psyche, showing both hormonal lust, visible in his excitement over having cyber-sex with an anonymous on-line admirer, and surprising sensitivity, as he struggles to understand his friendship/love for Posie and rages over her cheating boyfriend. The daydreams are hysterical, as are Jonah's reflections on those around (i.e. his principle "who may not exist" and his therapist--who looks like the muppet Grover always tortures on Sesame Street.) The characters are great, especially the females such as Posie and Honey, who come off as strong and assertive, without trying to force the point of female autonomy. The book is just plain, hysterical fun. I don't like to rely on cliches, but this book really does leave you thirsting for more. I read it two weeks ago, and can't stop thinking about it. I can't wait to read Volume II.

Rating: 5 stars
