 I picked up this book hoping for a light-hearted, entertaining read; however, I found it was much more than that. Normally, I don't read books with titles like this one. I'm not really into shallow, fluffy, high-school age books, but a lot of readers in the book community gave it really high reviews, so I decided to give it a shot. 
 I'm really glad I did, because I enjoyed the story quite a lot. It's based in an American boarding school right in the heart of the Latin Quarter, which was automatically a bonus for me, since the Latin Quarter is my favorite section of Paris. The tone of the book has a very unique American/Parisian feel that creates a good balance between Anna's dorm life and her adventures in the city. 
 My favorite part about this book was the characters. Anna, the protagonist, was fabulous. It was so much fun to read the book from her perspective; her voice was addictive, her sense of humor was spot-on, and she was just overall a very likable and relatable character. 
 In addition, St. Clair was a great love interest. I went into this book assuming the love interest was going to be French (mostly from the title), but St. Clair is British/American, which makes him culturally diverse and charming, yet also very familiar with the American lifestyle. I really liked the fact that St. Clair wasn't your typical, cliche European love interest; he is Anna's best friend, who understands her and cares for her more than any other character in the book. Their deep friendship and genuine concern for one another set their relationship apart from most of the ones I've read in other YA contemporary romances. I feel like a lot of the European love interests depicted in modern day literature are mysterious, flirtatious, and immature/stuck up, but St. Clair was very real, and that was something I appreciated. 
 This book also dealt with some deeper issues, such as divorce, illness, neglect, and betrayal. These issues only enhanced the plot and the characters and gave the story depth and additional emotion. 
 I will state that this book brought nothing new to me literature-wise, but it definitely serves its purpose as an entertaining, feel-good read. All in all, I liked this book more than I thought I would. For those of you who are hesitant to read this, don't be deceived by the title or the cover. I'm trying to be better about not judging a book by its title, and I'm glad I gave this book a chance. I will definitely be rereading this in the future when I'm in the mood for a warm-hearted romance.
