   Anna and the French Kiss by Stephanie Perkins Anna and the French Kiss
   by Stephanie Perkins - Anna has everything figured out - she was about
   to start senior year with her best friend, she had a great weekend job,

   somewhere... Until her dad decides to send her 4383 miles away to
   Paris. On her own.
   But despite not speaking a word of French, Anna finds herself making
   new friends, including Étienne, the smart, beautiful boy from the floor
   above. But he’s taken – and Anna might be too. Will a year of romantic

   into their group. Anna is finding it really hard to fight her

   Like Just One Day by Gayle Forman, Anna and the French Kiss made me
   desperate to go to Paris! But we see different parts of Paris in Anna
   and the French Kiss than we do in Just One Day. And in such incredible
   detail. I want to go to Notre Dame. I want to stand on the star at
   Point Zero and make my wish. I want to see the chimera! I want to go to
