Thsi book really delves into his mind. Since this is a sequal to WHAT MY MOTHER DOESN'T KNOW, which is in Sophie's P.O.V., you can kind of understand what she is thinking because Sonya Sones is such a great author.
This was an amazing book, but read the first book fist. It only makes WHAT MY GIRLFRIEND DOESN'T KNOW better.

Sonya Sones, well-known for her novels in verse, has written a sequel to WHAT MY MOTHER DOESN'T KNOW. The sequel continues to follow the unlikely relationship between Robin and Sophie.
Robin Murphy is still amazed that the beautiful and popular Sophie Stein is actually his girlfriend. They are getting closer by the minute. Their great conversations are turning into some equally great make-out sessions, and Robin's mind is spinning 24/7.
Now that their relationship is out in the open, Robin and Sophie are noticing the reactions of those around them. Sophie's best-friends-forever are stopping her to question her sanity. They are openly asking her why she's spending time with a dweeb like Robin. All it seems to do is further cement their feelings for one another.
Adding an extra boost of confidence for Robin is the invitation to audit a college drawing class at Harvard. How many high school freshmen get a chance to sit in on a college-level art class? Robin is nervous as he enters the classroom the first night. His nervousness goes off the charts when he discovers the figures he'll be drawing are real, live, nude models. Concentrate on drawing when there's a gorgeous, naked woman mere feet in front of him?
Unaware of Robin's actual age, the college students admire his drawing skill and begin to involve him in their after class plans. These new friends and their honest acceptance are great confidence builders for Robin. But after each college class, he must return to the high school scene and reality the following day.
Fun, fast, and full of surprises, Sonya Sones has another hit with WHAT MY GIRLFRIEND DOESN'T KNOW. If you liked the first book, be ready for a long waiting list at your local library when word gets out about this one.
