What Parents Need to Know
About How to Take the Ex Out of Ex-boyfriend
Parents need to know that this book is pretty clean. Passionate kisses aren't described beyond saying their power "stopped time." The twins don't serve alcohol at their party, but three drunk guys show up; Giovanna takes the responsibility to drive them home. Giovanna sometimes talks about how her mother's death took away some of Dante's spirit.

Families Can Talk About
- Families can talk about Daphne's advice on how to win Jesse back: "If you come crawling back to him, it's like admitting you aren't capable of doing better. He'll think you're a B-list girl ... The trick is to make other people think you're A-list." Can you think of other media that has used this idea -- that a makeover and a string of dates is the way to attract the guy you want? Is there any truth behind what Daphne is saying? How does it work out for Giovanna?
