"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 Etienne St. Clair: perfect, Parisian (and English and American, which makes for a swoon-worthy accent), and utterly irresistible. The only problem is that he's taken, and Anna might be, too, if anything comes of her almost-relationship back home.
As winter melts into spring, will a year of romantic near - misses end with the French kiss Anna - and readers - have long awaited?"
What can I say? This book made my heart melt. All the gorgeous boys, the Parisian setting, and creperies around every corner made me want to book a flight to Paris instantly. Each character bounced of the page and came to life in my mind. I felt as though I could connect with Anna. Being left alone anywhere to fend for yourself is always tough to deal with.
The story begins with Anna listing all the reasons why she should not be shipped of to Paris. Good life, loyal friend, hot crush... you get the point. As her life in Paris progresses, she fills her senior year with memorable adventures and a special bond that could last a lifetime.
As I said earlier, the characters were very much involved in bringing the plot to life. Anna's close group of friends were each unique and quirky in their own way. I'm not evening going to begin gushing about Etienne St. Clair.
I hadn't been into much of the contemporary romance lit, but this book changed my thoughts completely. Stephanie Perkins is a brilliant writer and I look forward to reading more of her works in the future! No matter what genre you enjoy, go pick up this book if you haven't already, it's deffinitely worth reading! I give Anna and the French Kiss 5/5 stars.
