Reader reviewed by Bookluver-Carol

John can have any girl he wants.
Jennifers never been kissed.
Everybody thinks hes perfect.
Shes got issues with pride and jealousy.
They were best friendsonce. Now, theyre playing Romeo and Juliet. Virgin lips Jennifer must have her first kiss on stage with John, the guy every girl in school wants. Pressure and tension builds along with each staged kiss. Both are shocked when feelings bloom. Can either tell which kisses are real and which are for show?


Falling for Romeo was a sort-of modern telling of Romeo and Juliet. It also incorporated some things from Pride and Prejudice in the book.

The heated discussions between the two main characters were really good, and seeing them spat made the story interesting. Jennifer was a believable character,and you could relate to her. John was also believable and a good character.

The different POV's helped move the story along and gave you an insight on what the two main characters were feeling and thinking.

The plot was predictable, but it was still a good book. There were some typos and other errors that may cause you to put the book down. There were some consistency errors as well, and they were distracting. Also, the ending could have been a bit better. Overall, this was a fun, cute, predictable read.
