Review Detail

I really love Stephanie Perkins. She knows just how to write amazing contemporary love stories that will leave you smiling.

Anna and the French Kiss is stunning--a poignant portrayal of the pains and triumphs true love must conquer.

I love the setting of this novel--Paris! And even though I have never been there, when I closed my eyes, I felt like I was there! I could hear the people walking around me chatting, taste the buttery croissants, and feel the cool air rushing off the river. Perkins knows exactly how to set up a scene, and I fell straight into her world.

I loved Anna and Etienne. Their friendship was sweet and innocent, and it broke my heart about their circumstances. But that didn't keep me from falling for the humorous with a touch of bad Etienne. While I still like Cricket (from Lola) better, Etienne is definitely on my list of great YA book boyfriends!

A brilliant and fun read, I recommend this to anyone looking for a sweet romance that won't leave you in tears.
