Synopsis:
When Penny Lane started
The Lonely Hearts Club, the goal was simple: to show that girls didn’t
need to define themselves by how guys look at them, and didn’t have to
value boyfriends over everything else. Penny thought she’d be an outcast
for life…but then the club became far more popular than she ever
imagined it would be.
But what happens when the girl who never thought she’d date a good guy suddenly finds herself dating a great one? She doesn’t need a boyfriend… but she wants it to work out with this particular boyfriend. And he wants it to work out with her.
Only, things keep getting in the way. Feelings keep getting hurt. Words keep getting misunderstood.
Penny Lane worked hard to declare her independence. Now she needs to figure out what to do with it — and how to balance what she wants with what everyone else wants. In We Can Work It Out, Elizabeth Eulberg returns to the world of her first novel, The Lonely Hearts Club, and gets to the heart of how hard relationships can be… and why they are sometimes worth all the drama and comedy they create.

Review:
Penny Lane is back again, only this time she's got her club
and her sweet as candy boyfriend by her side. Balancing out the two is s bit
troublesome though; much harder to do than Penny expected.
When I first read
The Lonely Hearts Club, I fell in love with the story as a whole. I wish that
there was such club that existed because I believe there should be that kind of
support amongst young girls and women everywhere. So obviously, I jumped at the
opportunity to read the sequel. In We Can Work It Out, Penny needed a good hard
slap! I understood that she had duties as the leader of her club but the way
she treated Ryan was horrible! He was so patient and kind when Penny would put
him second. And she did that a lot.
Everything just kept getting in the way such as going to club meetings, sitting with the club at lunch, and even Valentine's Day has been taken over by, you guessed it, the club! That happened a lot throughout the book until
Ryan can't take it anymore. I never totally blamed him either. As I stated before, Penny reallllllly grated on my nerves. I hated how indecisive she was. I love the girl and think
she's great role model but sheesh, learn how to prioritize!
she's great role model but sheesh, learn how to prioritize!
I loved how in this book the club is expanding. Other schools around The Club's school have heard about them and want to know if they could start their own chapters. It gets to be huge and people all over the world want in on it. I think the club is great and for it to get that big, well that's just awesome!
Even though I liked this book, the first one will
always be my favorite. Eulberg fans won't want to miss out on this fun story!
