A page-turning, laugh-out-loud comedy of errors, Wendelin Van Draanen’s Confessions of a Serial Kisser (Knopf, out May 13th, $15.99, 304 pages, ages 12 & up) is a perfect fit for anyone who enjoyed my novel What I Meant… (Random House, 2007). In Van Draanen’s book, after reading a romance where the heroine enjoys an earth-shattering “crimson kiss”, high school junior Evangeline decides to take control of her out-of-control life by hunting for her own perfect “crimson kiss.” As you can imagine, things get decidedly more out of control as a result. You never know who Evangeline will grab and kiss next, and what the results will be. Plenty of surprises, plenty of laughs, and plenty of complications. This is all held together with a really touching story about dealing with a beloved parent’s betrayal. I believe this is the sequel to her novel, “Flipped,” which I haven’t read.
This novel definitely stands on its own, and I highly recommend it.

I havent read this book, but i have read ‘flipped’ (its very good by the way, you should read it. The characters are in middle school though.) however, i dont think ‘confessions’ is a sequel. As far as i remember, theres no one named evangeline in it. The main characters are bryce and juli. That said, im still going to look for this book.
Here’s my confession: I haven’t read Flipped either, but I read that this was a sequel. Hm, am I spreading misinformation???
i have read this book it is the best book i have ever read!! and i want to know if it has a movie or more books to it.
Hi Nicole,
I don’t know of any movies about this one, but it would make a great flick. Hm. I wonder who would star in it?
🙂
Marie

This is the best book ever! do you have any more books like it?
