Enthusiasm, by Polly Shulman



This was so fantastic! I've been eyeing it for a few weeks and finally read it tonight- wonderful YA!

Now, I've read Jane Austen, but I've been baffled by the flood of Jane Austen based books lately- everything after Bridget Jones left me high and dry. But this was a blast- with teen female characters who I totally wanted to know, a romance that I wanted to work out, interesting characters and language, and it was so much fun. Yay!

I've been reading so much dystopian and suburban melodrama YA that it felt incredibly new and fresh to read about absolutely healthy people. Lovely.
