I have
spent every summer since I was ten years old with my father in London. Every
summer, since I was ten years old, has been uneventful and boring.
Until this
year.
And this
year, after a freak volcanic eruption strands me far from home, I have learned
these things:
1. I can
make do with one outfit for three days before I buy new clothes.
2. If I
hear the phrase, “You’re not in Kansas anymore, Toto,” even one more time, I
might become a homicidal maniac.
3. I am
horribly and embarrassingly allergic to jellyfish.
4. I am in
love with Dante Giliberti, who just happens to be the beautiful, sophisticated
son of the Prime Minister of a Mediterranean paradise.
5. See
number four above. Because it brings with it a whole slew of problems and I’ve
learned something from every one of them.
Let’s start
with the fact that Dante’s world is five light-years away from mine. He goes to
black-tie functions and knows the Prime Minister of England on a first name
basis. I was born and raised on a farm in Kansas and wear cut-off jeans paired
with cowboy boots. See the difference?
But hearts
don’t care about differences. Hearts want what they want. And mine just wants
to be Dante’s girl.
Series: The Paradise Diaries
Author: Courtney Cole
Pages: 356
This is the
first book I've read by Courtney Cole who has nothing paranormal about it.
These are ordinary people with nothing exciting but a very special boy and
girl. The book is written well and I like the story very much.
The book is
about 17 year old Reece, she is extremely funny and has lots of funny ideas.
She seems like an extremely lively girl, but can be shy. To me it seems that
she has very low self-esteem and do not see her selves very well.
Dante seems
like a nice guy and, as you might fell in love with, even if he is fictional. He
is polite and can charm anybody.
Do you want
to read a book about love, a lot of drama, action and a book that can make you
cry? Then this book is for you!
The cover
is very good and shows some of the action in the book.
The title
fits well because it's just that Reece and everyone else who reads the book
will want to be.
What I'm
wondering is if there will be more books in the series that's all about them,
or if there are others we are going to be familiar with.
I give this book a 4 of 6
