The synopsis: In this companion novel to Anna and the French Kiss, two teens discover that true love may be closer than they think
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
My thoughts: Ok, so I didn't love this one as much as Anna and the French Kiss, but I think that had I not read this as a follow up, but as a stand alone - I would have enjoyed it much more. Does that make sense? Lola was just toooooo much for me, whereas I loved Anna from the beginning to end. Lola grew on me, absolutely but she wasn't as endearing as Anna. Cricket though - I love Cricket. Seriously, while I adore Etienne, Cricket is much more the guy I fall for. Etienne has that je ne sais quoi, but I adore the awkward, tall, shy guy. I can't wait for what's behind door #3. Why oh why do we have to wait a whole year? So not nice.

I agree, I didn't find Lola quite as adorably endearing as Anna, but this was still a fun read. I'm really looking forward to Isla too!
