Boytalk's book of the week

Boytalk nation:

As we all know, girls are more confusing than a blank Sudoku.  Thankfully, there is hope!

If you haven't read this book yet, fire up your Kindle and get ready to have your life transformed.  This book is full of advice, pick-up lines, and anecdotes that will leave you on the edge of your seat.  Read it, live it, talk to girls.
