According to Dessy’s best friend Veronica, there are two types of people in the world: the
heartbreakers and the heartbroken. Veronica is obviously a heartbreaker and Dessy’s heartbroken – especially since she just got dumped – but Dessy has always wanted to be more like Veronica. To be carefree and wild and not worry about what other people think but she can’t seem to do it. So their writer’s workshop in Prague is the perfect time for Dessy to break out of her shell, and maybe finally get over her ex by finding a hot European guy.
As things start to heat up in Prague with a psycho roommate out to get Veronica and a
wall of hot boys, Dessy starts to lose sense of who she is. She realizes that she’s not Veronica and that she needs to find her own way in this unfamiliar environment. As friendships fall apart and guys start to fall into Dessy’s lap, she needs to figure out who she is and what she wants out of this trip.
A Field Guide for Heartbreakers is the perfect adventure with a summer fling. Reading
this book you will fall in love with Dessy and root for her through her crazy adventures. Kristen Tracy perfectly combines teenage romance into finding one’s self and teaches us an important lesson that shows us the way to one’s heart: be yourself.
