Anna & the French Kiss by Stephanie Perkins, is about a girl who falls in love with her best friend. Her father sends her to boarding school in Paris leaving her best friend, her great job and her major crush. She meets this perfect guy in boarding school called Etienne St. Claire and they become best friends. She eventually has feelings for him but he’s taken. After a whole year Etienne breaks up with his girlfriend because he knew that he loved Anna. In the end they’re together and Anna discovers that “home” isn’t a place but a person, and she finally found her home.
This author has captured my attention by using a lot of adjectives and similes. An example of one of the adjectives would be: the patisserie has thick planks of creaky hardwood and a chandelier draped with tinkly strings of topaz crystals. A simile would be: they glow like drops of honey. Using this type of writing really grabbed my attention because then i could visualize what was happening easier.
