This bombshell is about to find the boy of her dreams--and then some. . .
Ask anyone at Briona's A-list private school and they'll tell you this It Girl's got the world on a string. It doesn't hurt that she's often mistaken for Beyoncé, or that she's already landed some cool acting gigs. There's just one teensy problem in her picture-perfect life. Briona has had plenty of hot hook-ups but never a boyfriend. Now that she's discovered online dating, you--the reader--can help her find the real thing. . .
Handsome, rich, and oozing self-confidence, Thomas seems like a lot of guys Briona goes to school with, except for one he's blind. Matt is the kind of guy Briona can bring home to mother, but maybe she shouldn't hold that against him--especially since he's cute, funny, and can tear up a dance floor. Always the hit of the party, Antonio knows how to have a good time. Too bad his ex isn't ready to let him have a good time with anyone else. And then there's Justin, who seems just perfect. That is, until Briona lays eyes on his more than perfect twin brother. . .
Hotter than the latest fashions, Get More is the third interactive novel in the Boy Shopping series that lets the reader choose who goes out on a date!
Includes a guide on how to start your own book club!

See my full thoughts here: https://youtu.be/abFHzhgkedo
Let me make two things clear from the beginning: This book is absolutely terrible, and it's absolutely hilarious. I went into this thinking that it would be enjoyably stupid and that's exactly what it is.
This is a choose your own adventure style story about a teenage girl named Bree. Bree, despite being so beautiful that she is literally mistaken for Beyonce multiple times and having parents so wealthy she goes to a private school and lives in a Manhattan condo, has never had a serious relationship. What's the solution? Online dating of course! And that's where you, the reader, come in. You choose who Bree will date and what choices she'll make afterwards.
Now I understand that this book is light hearted wish fulfillment and not to be taken too seriously, but this is just impossible not to laugh at. The choices and situations are just so bizarre and stupid that it becomes priceless. This book includes beautiful scenes like:
- A boy who lives in a mansion in New Jersey invites Bree to his 18th birthday. Then she gets attacked by his supermodel ex-girlfriend. One of her friends physically attacks the model and security pulls them apart. They all leave without getting in trouble.
- Bree goes on a meh date with someone, then decides to keep dating him so that she can get closer to his twin brother. Rather than blowing up in her face, this scheme actually works.
- A paparazzi mistakes Bree for Beyonce and snaps pictures of her and her friend in track gear. They chase him down and take his camera. Then they explain the situation and let him leave without a fuss.
And that's not even questioning why all these beautiful, successful people are using online dating to begin with. This whole book is just a collection of odd scenes and characters that don't make sense. The whole thing should confuse or irritate me, yet somehow it comes together into a beautiful butterfly of strange hilarity. This is definitely worth reading if you just want to spend a few hours laughing at the ineptitude of this fluff.

May 9, 2008I started reading this book last week and it's good so far. It's girl who usually goes out shopping for cloths and jewlery. But now she's finding that it's more fun going boy shopping.

Briona, also known as Bree, is a famous hot star and she has always been mistaken for Beyoncé. She has had many hook-ups with plenty of guys, but she has never had a boyfriend of whom loves her and that she loves him back. She once didn't really believe in love, but this wasn't until she found out about online-dating and four awesome guys who she is "matched" with. Who would she choose, since each of them has their good different qualities? Besides it only being Bree's choice, it is also the responsibility of readers to choose who to be her true love.
I like the writing style of this book because it is readers who choose what they want to read within the book that they already chose. By having us being able to choose who we want to read about, it wouldn't be too boring because there are varieties in the book. It isn't complicating because it's only about one girl and one guy, after the guy is chosen by us readers. If we don't like to read about that guy, we can go back to the "starting page" of our choices of guys and read about a new one. I like this freedom of being able to choose who we want to read about and I'm hoping to read more books that are similar to this.
I would recommend this book to teens and maybe adults because younger kids wouldn't be able to understand the concepts of the book. I recommend this book to teens because the ages that are in this book revolves around teens, showing readers are able to connect to the book in some ways because the age group is so similar. I might recommend this to adults because they can know how their children are feeling if such symptons from the book relates to how your children are reacting. Parents can also learn about how teens are these days and it would be easier for them to communicate with them. Books like these can teach readers a lesson, even if they might not know it.

The book was a good read. Some of the moves Briona made while finding a guy was not called for, but thenm again the guys in the story were realistically favorable.
