Reality TV personality Lauren "Lo" Bosworth has witnessed her fair share of bad dating and has experienced some herself. As a star on two reality shows, she is no stranger to drama and what comes along with it. Now she is offering her advice gleaned from her and her famous friends' relationship experiences on dating and love. Featuring personal photos and anecdotes about her experiences on "Laguna Beach" and "The Hills", The Lo-Down is a further glimpse into the lives of the people that have enthralled so many.

Brent’s opinion of the book:
      I love it when  blond girls from Southern California-based reality shows write books.  It is the best thing ever.  I’m a huge fan of LC’s YA series from HarperTeen, and when I saw that she blurbed Lo Bosworth’s book, I knew I had to read it!
     Before The Lo-Down, I ‘d never heard about a dating and relationship advice book for teens.  I’m not really sure I even WANTED to hear about one, haha! I’m  not that into advice books.  I always thought that advice books were for lonely people with no friends.  But I’ve always liked Lo Bosworth (she was my favorite girl on The Hills!), so The Lo-Down was always pretty high up in my to-be-read pile.
     The Lo-Down was awesome.  It gave tons of invaluable advice on important stuff, like how to let that guy you like but don’t like like that know you’re not interested, how to tell the sweet, datable guys from the Baddies, and how you know when a relationship isn’t working.  Lo Bosworth described everything  perfectly clear.  Besides the quizzes, examples, and lists of do’s and don’ts, she wrote wonderful stories of her experiences with different guys and situations.  I think teen girls will love The Lo-Down just as much as I did.
