I think I loved this more the second time around. There's a lot of subtle stuff that really distinguishes it from most YAs. I think Stephanie's other book, Lola, is actually "better," but there are a ton of experiences in Anna that I can really relate to, particularly the being young in a foreign country for the first time bits. Plus the evolution of the Anna-Etienne relationship is one that's very realistic and relatable to me. (Which is funny because I've read a number of reviews in which people say they felt like the circumstances and relationship were unrealistic to them. Funny how that works.) 
 Basically, I this one very personally relevant, and I'd forgotten how much so. I'm glad my book club picked it as an alternative to RPO since rereads make me nervous. :) 
 I think I four-starred it the first go around because I didn't think my gut reaction of being able to identify with the character and situation was meritorious enough to justify five stars. That was silly of me. I really love this book and it'll likely go into my once a year reread rotation.
