Anna and the French Kiss
by Stephanie Perkins
A YA E-book that I got from the library because I was bored and a little depressed. I wanted to read something that was light, breezy, and sure not to touch any deep chords. This filled the bill admirably.
As a teenager I would have loved this, so I recommend it to that target audience. Anna is smart and introspective and totally obsessed with boys, or at least one boy. Love and sexual attraction are the same thing, which is usual in kids that age. After all, they're not thinking of spending the rest of their lives together or raising kids together--too soon for all that. Which is why I enjoyed it, as I said. No depth at all--like a prime-time sitcom.
