If I let you read mine, will you let me read yours?
Forgotten Girl, a fifteen-year-old poet, is going through the most difficult time of her life??the breakup of her parents, and her mom's resulting depression??when she meets Random Boy, a hot guy who, like her, feels like an outcast and secretly writes poetry to deal with everything going on in his life.
In The Lost Marble Notebook of Forgotten Girl & Random Boy, the couple's poems come together to tell their unique love story. The two nameless teenagers come from opposite sides of the tracks, yet they find understanding in each other when they lay bare their life stories through the poetry they write and share with each other.
Through verse, they document the power of first kisses, the joy of finally having someone on their side, the devastation of jealousy, and the heartbreaking sadness of what each of them is simultaneously dealing with at home and hiding from the world. Finally they have someone to tell and somewhere to tell it in their marble notebook.
This is the powerful story of two imperfect teens in first love who find solace in poetry.

This took an unexpected, pleasant turn. If by pleasant, I mean "went for the worst possible route for its characters and I loved it".

When a book opens as YA-ish as this one - girl standing on her balcony, calling over a boy she hasn't ever met before, boy scales her house and snaps some one liner - you expect it to be about young, "misunderstood" romance. And for a while, it is. The book jacket gives no indication of it going elsewhere. I have to believe that this is a coincidence decision on Jaskulka's part, and it's a damn good one, because it makes the twist all the more unexpected and delicious. I relish in the fact that legions of teenage girls looking for a sappy romance (as I was too, quite frankly) will pick this up and be knocked off of their feet. Not to mention that it while it paints a horrifying picture, "Lost Notebook" also doesn't fail to spark hope and teach a non-preachy lesson.

The best part of this book, however, is that it's probably the only verse novel I've read where the majority of the poetry could almost stand alone, had it not been connected to plot. Some of the lines are simply gorgeous. I found myself liking Forgotten Girl's more than Random's, as his tended to be focused more on singular purposes whereas her's could cover entire spectrums in a few lines, but both tended to be pretty great. I only found myself disappointed by a few of them, and in a two hundred page book, that's not a big deal. What is, however, is how great this book was. I'd highly recommend it - but try not to spoil it for yourself. ( )

“The book is intense, much like the young couple’s relationship. Poetry perfectly captures the heightened emotions of first love. . . . The story is realistic, gripping, worrisome yet hopeful.”

VERDICT Give this to fans of Sonya Sones and Ellen Hopkins.

★ “Told with such complete believability that the descent seems almost foregone, given the wounds that each has brought to the relationship. Jaskulka’s narrative explores the hows and whys of an abusive teenage relationship with heartbreaking honesty, and her delicate touch renders the dark story even more powerful.

Graceful. Searing. Haunting.”
