I was going to start my book group book, but realize that I am in the mood for some fun YA so I am going to read Anna and the French Kiss by Stephanie Perkins.
"Here is everything I know about France: Madeline and Amelie and Moulin Rouge. The Eiffel Tower and the Arc de Triomphe, although I have no idea what the function of either actually is."
Totally fun start! I think it's cute and sassy and really sets the tone for the book. I am about 40 pages in and enjoying it.

Great beginning. I hope she learns a bit about that too :-)
Kim--I have seen so many good reviews and it fits my reading mood perfectly
Mostraum--I know, when I started the book I thought. Really? Gosh I hope she learns a thing or two!
haha - great opening. Not sure I'd know the function of each either to be honest! Sounds like a perfect weekend read!
