     Anna Oliphant has moved to Paris, France to spend her last year of high school at The School of America. Although she is excited to visit the great city of love, Anna does not want to leave her life in Atlanta behind. In Paris, Anna finds herself caught in a love triangle with the sexy and thrilling Etienne St. Clair. However, not only is he her new best friend, but he is also currently in a relationship with another girl. 

     In this thrilling novel, Perkins shows us how change isn't always bad and that love will always conquer all. Stephanie Perkins was successful in portraying the immense conflict of an average teenage girl's life, when it is impacted with continuous alterations and challenges. The love struck words displayed between Anna and Etienne touched me and had me at the edge of my seat, thirsting for more. I can honestly say, Stephanie Perkins has written a Must-Read novel that would attract the best of audiences and lure teens into what would sure be their favorite book yet.

       I enjoyed reading Anna and the French Kiss because it was empowering. Anna's character proved that no what obstacles appear in your way, there is always a happy ending. You're life may be a living hell at the moment, but if you keep pushing and live your life, there will be a happy ending at the end of the road. 

     I would recommend this novel to any teenage girl who enjoyed The Summer I Turned Pretty trilogy by Jenny Han and girls of all ages who love romance, realism and adventure.
