by By Sones, Sonya
Category: Young Adult Fiction , Family , Parents

My name is Ruby.  This book is about me.  It tells the deeply hideous story  of what happens when my mother dies  and I'm dragged three thousand miles away  from my gorgeous boyfriend, Ray,  to live in L.A. with my father,  who I've never even met  because he's such a scumbag that he  divorced my mom before I was born.   The only way I've ever even seen him  is in the movies,  since he's this megafamous actor  who's been way too busy  trying to win Oscars  to even visit me once in fifteen years.  Everyone loves my father.  Everyone but me.
