Clueless Teen's Guide to Dating

Great dating guide for teens to help prevent needless strife in a world where there are no rules. Like the Emily Post for teens, D'Arcy sets protocols so everyone knows what's acceptable and what's not. The target audience for this book includes teenagers from ages thirteen to eighteen. The information is specifically written for girls; however, it may prove to be interesting to boys as well.


This book is divided into four chapters that will chronologically cover advice spanning from the initial sparks to the end of the relationship. There is also information about contraception, pregnancy, STD’s, and birth control.


D'Arcy discusses typical scenarios that girls and their friends may have already encountered and some they may have not. Fictional stories are also added to illustrate the reasoning for my tips.


The information in this book is useful and practical. The statistics on teenage problems were gathered from surveys taken by teenagers across the United States. With both the surveys and D'Arcy's own personal experience, she tries to create helpful and informative advice to guide teenagers through a challenging and exciting time in their lives.
