Publisher's summary
Rod's life doesn't suck. If you ask him, it's pretty awesome. He may not be popular, but he and his best friends play in a band that has a standing gig. Yeah, it's Monday night and they don't get paid, but they can crank the volume as loud as they want. And Rod's girlfriend is hot, smart, and believes in their band - believes in Rod. Aside from a winning lottery ticket, what more could he ask for?
Answer: A different cousin. When Rod's scheming, two-faced cousin Blake moves in for the semester, Rod tries to keep calm. Blake seems to have everyone else fooled with his good manners and suave smile, except Rod knows better. Blake is taking over his room, taking over his band, taking over his life! But Rod's not about to give up without a fight. Game on. May the best prankster win....

Story
Henry Lambert would rather play video games than spend time in the great outdoors - but that doesn't make him a wuss. Skinny nerd? Fine. But wuss is a little harsh. Sadly, his dad doesn't agree. Which is why Henry is being shipped off to Strongwoods Survival Camp. Strongwoods isn't exactly as advertised. It looks like the victim of a zombie apocalypse, the "camp director" is a psycho drill sergeant, and Henry's sure he saw a sign written in blood...

When you’re desperate for money, searching for a little adventure, and aren’t the most responsible person in the world, you can end up doing some outrageous things. Which is how Andrew Mayhem, a married father of two, ends up accepting $20,000 to find a key - a key buried with a body in a shallow grave. But what he finds in the grave isn’t quite what he expected, and what begins as a simple evening of morally questionable manual labor turns into a really good way to die.

And since these clowns don't eat children, to make ends meet they're eventually forced to take a job in a popular haunted attraction, the Mountain of Terror. But millions of oversized spiders are about to invade....

I'm Mackenzie Wellesley, and I've spent my life avoiding the spotlight. But that was four million hits ago... Blame it on that grade school ballet recital, when I tripped and pulled the curtain down, only to reveal my father kissing my dance instructor. At Smith High, I'm doing a pretty good job of being the awkward freshman people only notice when they need help with homework. Until I send a burly football player flying with my massive backpack, and make a disastrous - not to mention unwelcome - attempt at CPR.

And suddenly, I’m some kind of convicted felon. My parents are getting divorced, my dad is shacking up with my third-grade teacher. I might be in love with a girl who could kill me with one finger, and now I’m sentenced to baby-sit some insane old guy. What else could possibly go wrong?

There is just one thing that really sets Vince Luca apart for other kids - his father happens to be the head of a powerful crime organization. Needless to say, while Vince's family's connections can be handy for certain things (like when teachers are afraid to give him a bad grade), they can put a serious crimp in his dating life. But when Vince meets a girl who finally seems to be worth the trouble, her family turns out to be the biggest problem of all. Her father is an FBI agent - the one who has been watching Vince's family for years, and who wants to put his father away for good.

Kevin has a big talent. Some might call it compulsive lying. He calls it common sense. Kev doesn’t mean to cause trouble by lying all the time; he’s just trying to make everything easier for everyone (and himself). And, of course, a few harmless, um, falsehoods are crucial to his plan to convince Tina that he’s the perfect boyfriend for her. In Gary Paulsen’s irresistible and chaotic comedy, Kevin’s lies spiral out of control until he’s faced with the need to do the unthinkable: tell the truth.

Justin has two goals for sophomore year: to date Chuck, the hottest boy in school, and to become the king of Cool U, the table in the cafeteria where the "in" crowd sits. Unfortunately, he has the wrong look (short, plump, Brillo-pad curls), he has the wrong interests (Broadway, chorus violin), and he has the wrong friends (Spencer, into Eastern religions, and Mary Ann, who doesn't shave her armpits). And Chuck? Well, he's not gay; he's dating Becky, a girl in chorus with whom Justin is friendly.

Story
Cameron Bates (Cam) could have almost any girl at Franklin High School...except for the one he wants. Unfortunately Bebe seems to be immune to his flirty charm and good looks, which means one of two things: a) she's completely oblivious to how he feels, or b) she's just not into him. If that's the case, declaring his love would be disastrous for their friendship. Bianca Barnes (Bebe) has a huge problem: the universe hates her. Every time she admits feelings for a boy, he ends up falling for her sweet, popular, and beautiful sister Beth.

Blue Collar Comedy star Bill Engvall is just a guy. He's been one his whole life. He can't help it; he was born that way. And that makes him an expert on the subject. For the record, here's the official definition of a guy: a person who doesn't think before he speaks. He can't. He's not that deep. Because a guy has only three basic needs: eating, sleeping, and sex. That's it. Just a Guy chronicles a lifetime in pursuit of those needs.

Surprisingly cute, quick listen.
How you ruined my life was a cute - quick listen audiobook that was kinda adorable. It is a book that you could listen to while sitting in traffic and it would make you smile at the length the author goes to make this book wholesome, no curse words, high school angst without all the hyperbole. Age appropriate for anyone. And the narrator does an awesome job.

Surprisingly interesting
I went into the story blindly and almost quit because it felt too YA. Although it definitely read very young adult it held my interest and I binged to see how it would play out. Thoroughly enjoyed.

The Audio version of this book is Fantastic.
This was an awesome story. Jeff has a real knack for getting inside the thoughts and logic of how teenagers think and react. I love the whole “4th wall” part of the narration. I was hooked from the beginning, anxious through the entire book, and so relieved in the ending. Also, and I’m just throwing this out there, I’m an Awesome cousin... and totally NOT crazy. I’m just saying.
Loved the book. Excited to share it with my middle school students.

Hilarious and yet so painful to sit through
The story is really good - but be warned this one is a bit weird and offbeat even for Jeff Strand. Its silly, lighthearted and yet its so difficult to sit through the awkward downward spiral and psychological games going one. At times it was more difficult to listen to than the horror of Jeff's other books. You'll be wanting to throttle some of the characters and be sent into a rage.. you've been warned. This book will get to you. It's childish and silly, but with hidden lures beneath its surface. I won't forget it.
Andrew Eiden narrated this - and he's amazing. (This book must have been so difficult to narrate. And he did it with total perfection) I'm going to search for more work Andrew has worked on simply because he's that good.

Quick read, rather fun
How You Ruined My Life has some moments of Jeff Strand's twisted humor and is relatively entertaining. It's definitely not as eerie as many of Strand's books and not half as clever as some of his best like Wolf Hunt, Kutter, or Blister, but I got the book free through the Audible Plus catalog and it was quite good for free. Narrator Andrew Eiden did a great job conveying the angst of a teen boy.

Breaking the fourth wall was never so fun
“I’ll even try to use fewer parenthetical asides from now on (just kidding).”
Often, when a protagonist speaks directly to us listeners, it takes me out of the story. Here, however,
it was one of the two things that made the story. Loved the parentheticals and tangents. Squirrel!
“I’m afraid I’m going to have to go with the pants wetting option.”
The other thing that makes the story great is the narration- the comedic timing and band lyrics were hysterical. So, why not five stars? The narration of Rod, and especially Blake, made these two sound like middle aged bachelors still living with their parents instead of the high schoolers they were.
Also, the psychological warfare was a tad too successful and stressed me out a bit 😜.
“We’re Fang Grapefruit, are you ready to rock?!”
Good clean fun that my high schoolers will love.
