CONFESSIONS OF A SERIAL KISSER is just the kind of light and sweet read that I want: plenty of straightforward cuteness without the melodrama and inanity. Evangeline's character, while seemingly simple, is actually delightfully well-rounded. Readers know at all times that deep down she is an optimistic sweetie with a love of music and absolute loyalty to those she cares about.
But CONFESSIONS OF A SERIAL KISSER is more than just a girl searching for passion: it's also a story of loyalty and family. Evangeline's conflict with her father was extremely well done, and never threatened to overpower or quench the delightful wackiness of her boy problems. Instead, it added depth to what could've otherwise been a silly and shallow story.
Overall, CONFESSIONS OF A SERIAL KISSER was a gem of a find. Younger teen readers will appreciate another strong novel from middle-grade favorite Wendelin van Draanen, and older readers who perhaps read and enjoyed FLIPPED back in the day will also be delighted with this different, but fun and touching, read.
