GoodReads Synopsis: Anna is looking forward to her senior year in Atlanta, where she has a great job, a loyal best friend, and a crush on the verge of becoming more. Which is why she is less than thrilled about being shipped off to boarding school in Paris--until she meets Étienne St. Clair. Smart, charming, beautiful, Étienne has it all...including a serious girlfriend. But in the City of Light, wishes have a way of coming true. Will a year of romantic near-misses end with their long-awaited French kiss?
My Thoughts: There is no better YA author than Stephanie Perkins. I find most YA books tedious and ridden with eye-roll worthy overdramatic teenage angst. Not so with Ms. Perkins. Of course there is teen drama, that's the whole point. But her writing and characters are just so lovely. It's a fluffy and romantic story with just the right amount of angst and problems that teenagers face. And almost as much as a romance, it's a story of friendship. A sweet book full of characters (and a city!!) that will draw you in.
