Anna and the French Kiss Stephanie Perkins Books

It takes a certain style of writing and an element of charm, romance, realism, and characters who I completely fall for, for me to truly fall in love with a chick lit book. Let me just say Stephanie Perkins delivered all this and more in Anna and the French Kiss.

I completely love Anna, our main character who I related to on some levels. She's a little bit uptight, a little OCD, and what I loved most about her character is how fun she is and independent she becomes. Her character grows a lot through the course of the book. Anna's famous father, a southern romance author, decides she needs to spend her senior year abroad, in Paris. If that's horrifying enough, she'll be by herself. No friends, no family and in a country she's never been to before.

Once Anna is at the boarding school, she discovers herself, new friends and of course her own Mr Darcy in the form of Etinne St. Clair. Have you ever hit it off with someone so well, only to realize that the connection you have with them may never go further than friends? That's exactly what it's like for Anna. Etinne is the perfect match for Anna. They have a lot of fun together and an amazing chemistry, but the only problem is he's got a girlfriend. Stephanie captured the romantic tensions between the two perfectly! I felt that I went from the reader, to being there with the group and watching Anna and Etinne interact with each other. Their stolen glances, their undeniable attraction to one another, even though they both deny it. Etinne, known as St. Clair is a modern day Mr Darcy. He's the hot guy, with a great accent, has silly quirks and completely grounded. Plus he loves history, which I loved about him. It was so unexpected. Who wouldn't want to fall for him? Anna is the more reserved, quiet type, who dreams of being a film critic. Together the two of them have such a realistic chemistry that I just wanted to shove the two of them together and tell them to live happily ever after. Like life, their friendship and relationship isn't forced, but one that continues to grow and isn't without doubt, fear, love and insecurities.

Anna and St Clair bring the best and the hidden things out with each other. They confide in each other, and through the course of their realistic relationship of ups and downs, frustrations, happiness and fear, they both find something within each other, and that's an inner strength. Anna goes from being scared to be away from home and to walk around Paris by herself, it finding it's okay to be on your own. By the end of the book she's ventures out on her own and ends up enjoying where she is in life. St Clair is the hot guy on campus, who doesn't seem to ever let anything effect him. What he's hidden from everyone else, is the one thing that Anna helps him find the courage to face. I won't lie, Stephanie sure knows how to write a heart breaking scene.

Let me talk about the setting for moment.... Paris! Can I just say I'd like to book a round trip ticket to Paris please. Having never been, I felt that I just taken a guided tour of Paris, thanks to Stephanie's richly detailed tours that Anna goes on with her friends. From the descriptions to the people, the theater, the land marks and food. It's breathtaking and vividly beautiful.

There's so much more I'd love to say about Anna and The French Kiss, but that would mean I'd mention spoilers, which I won't do. I freely admit that Anna and The French Kiss now has a place on my favorite reads shelf. I'm still blown away that this is Stephanie's debut book! I am really excited to know she has more books coming out and I can't wait to read them.

Anna and the French Kiss Stephanie Perkins Books Reviews


This is one book that I've had on my TBR list for a really long time but for some reason never got around to it. Everyone seems to absolutely love this one so I wanted to finally pick it up and see what all of the fuss was about. This was my very first read by Stephanie Perkins too!

I really enjoyed all of the different character's personalities. Anna was so completely lost at the beginning of the story and I really felt for her. I would be really scared to be in a completely different place where I didn't know the language and I didn't know anyone, and I'm 32! She's only a teenager! St. Clair was equal parts sweet and completely frustrating for me. I HATED that he had a girlfriend for almost the entire story. I'm not a fan of cheaters. He ran so hot and cold with Anna but somehow expected her to understand that his behavior meant he cared about her....but refused to break up with his girlfriend. He also had some really sweet moments with her, and was really protective of her. It also made me a little mad that even though he refused to leave his girlfriend for her, he didn't want her dating anyone else. Sooo, she was supposed to wait around for him to make up his mind? Nope. I don't blame her for trying to move on.

In typical young adult fashion, there is a lot of friendship drama, with both her Paris friends and also her friends back home in Atlanta. I don't remember having too much friendship drama when I was a teenager but I know it was definitely a thing. It all felt pretty realistic. There's bound to be trouble when both you and your friend like the same guy. Along with the friendship drama, there was a lot of parent drama. Both St. Clair and Anna have "jerk dads" but we don't hear much more about them other than "he's a jerk". We know a little more about St. Clair's father, who definitely earns the jerk title, but I would have liked to know what made Anna's dad a bad guy.

I've never been to Paris, but it is one of those places one my bucket list, so I'm always interested in reading books that take place there. I mean, who doesn't swoon a little over a cute accent?! I really enjoyed reading about Anna discovering parts of the city. She spent most of her time at the theater but she talks about visiting different places and monuments too. This one is good for a case of wanderlust, that's for sure.

Unfortunately, I didn't end up loving this one as much as I had hoped, and I am definitely the unpopular opinion with that feeling. haha! I think this one was a case of "it's not you, it's me". I really enjoyed the parts of the story about discovering Paris, but St. Clair and Anna drove me a little nuts. With as much back and forth that happened between them throughout the story, by the time they finally got together I was already over it. lol! Maybe I'm just burnt out on young adult?? I'm not sure. I may still give the others in the series a try one day.
I feel almost like Anna right now, writing reviews on my blog. Except instead of movies its books. I had heard good reviews on this book but was still skeptical to reading it mainly because of the name. Anna and the French Kiss. It sounds almost like a Disney Channel Original Movie, the cheesy and stupid 2015 ones not the 2000 good movies. But once I dove into it, I was hooked.
It begins with Anna being forced to move to Paris for the school year, which I could relate to having moved to different states in the course of two years. Nobody wants to have to start all over, let alone in a new country where they don't speak English.

I love stories where the characters meet and it's instant chemistry, whether it be friendships, love, or even a hate chemistry. And Anna and St. Clair is one of my favorites out of them all.
I'm a sucker for Brits, so put in a cute guy with an accent who calls his mom, "mum," and Anna, "Ah-nah," and I'm in deep.

This story was so riveting and chalked up with romance, I was constantly smiling through every page. My heart beat faster when Anna's did and whenever she laughed I found myself doing the same.

The only think I didn't enjoy was the petty fights between everyone. It's not really the story itself, just mostly how I hate how girls "Call" guys, not allowing the guy to even make the decision if he likes one of them, or none. It gets annoying; stop turning against each other, just chill out, and be nice.

When it comes down to it all though, I give this book a 4/5. The diction was beautiful, scenery made me feel like I was in Paris, and the chemistry was divine. If this book is the closest I'll get to Paris, I am quite content with that.
It takes a certain style of writing and an element of charm, romance, realism, and characters who I completely fall for, for me to truly fall in love with a chick lit book. Let me just say Stephanie Perkins delivered all this and more in Anna and the French Kiss.
