I was hoping you'd do the challenge so I'm really excited that you're on board, too!
And you picked books! Not that I'm surprised, but YAY! And I think your 100 things will be a very handy list of recs for me. :)
I'm on the fence about this one, though. Your review is great, but the subject matter of the story is what has me waffling. The part about girl-meets-boy-who-already-has-a-girlfriend sets alarm bells ringing in my head because as a rule, I dislike situations like that. Does it resolve in a noncliche way?
YA doesn't get enough love, IMO! :) Plus, I like gushing about the books I love!
No, it's pretty cliche. If you dislike situations like that in books, you probably won't like this book. I liked the Anna and Etienne and their chemistry so much that I could overlook the cheating part. (and the girlfriend was on page maybe twice, so I never had any kind of attachment to her.) But yeah, if stuff like that bothers you then it's probably not the book for you! ♥
I remember you going on about this book when you were first reading it, and it sparked my curiosity a little bit. Now that I have the chance to read more books, Anna and the French kiss was one of the first ones I've got, and I'm devouring it. So, thanks for recommending it!! *hug* Definitely a new favourite ^^
(oh, and I love your icon, because now I know what it comes from)

I forgot to say, I'm happy that your lovely nephew and his mum are happy and healthy. Congrats on being an auntie again!

Thank you so much, dear. He's darling, but I miss him so much during the week when I don't get to see him. I hope all is well with you. ♥
