simplyalexandra 's review for:

Anna and the French Kiss by Stephanie Perkins
4.0

4.5-4.75 Stars - I recommend if you like cute YA romances. Or if you just like to be happy. It's not OVERLY sugar coated though. :)

This book follows Anna as she is sent to a boarding school in France for her senior year of high school. She makes friends with a group of people and within that group is someone who she has a big crush on. Sadly, he's taken, so Anna tries her best to ignore it. ... - not the craziest plot around, but I promise it was cute!

I had heard a lot of people sing praises of this book, and I wasn't disappointed by it! It was written in a fun way, and I absolutely was reminded of what it's like to be a teenage girl (difficult, dramatic, ..). I liked that this wasn't overly saccharine, but it wasn't super dark either. It was real enough (minus the boarding school in Paris part...) and quick and fun to read. It was one of those where the couple communication was KILLING ME... but I still liked it. I am excited to read the other books! :)
