Wood Nymph Seeks Centaur by Francesca Lia Block

This was actually a pretty cute book but it's more like the kind of book you play around with than the kind you read. Like when you get an astrology book and you only read about your sign and your boyfriend's sign and whether or not you are compatible.

Block uses mythology to divide people into types. For instance, my boyfriend was nearly full on a merman. I fell somewhere between a banshee and an urban elf. We had a lot of fun reading about the types and figuring out what we were.

I don't know how useful it is but this book was pretty entertaining. Maybe someone single would find it helpful.
