Have you read...

Lola and the Boy Next Door by Stephanie Perkins?

Lola and Boy Next Door

Synopsis from amazon.com:

Budding designer Lola Nolan doesn't believe in fashion . . . she believes in costume. The more expressive the outfit - more sparkly, more fun, more wild - the better. But even though Lola's style is outrageous, she's a devoted daughter and friend with some big plans for the future. And everything is pretty perfect (right down to her hot rocker boyfriend) until the dreaded Bell twins, Calliope and Cricket, return to the neighborhood.

When Cricket - a gifted inventor - steps out from his twin sister's shadow and back into Lola's life, she must finally reconcile a lifetime of feelings for the boy next door.

Why you should give this book a chance:

  1. If you read and loved Anna and the French Kiss.
  2. Lola--I like her. She is flawed. It's nice to read a realistically flawed character.
  3. Cricket--he is truly crush-worthy. He's just such a nice guy.
  4. Lola's dads--I loved them!
