4 CROWNS
I can’t imagine anyone else writing teenage angst as well as Ella Fields does and Kiss and Break up is packed full of adolescent confusion, emerging young love and lusty goodness.
Dash is a complicated character, a loveable bad boy with a “couldn’t give a damn, I’m going to do what I want”, attitude. Too honest for his own good sometimes, one minute I wanted to hug him, the next I could’ve shaken him till his teeth rattled for his cocky attitude. Peggy’s naïveté is very sweet and I found her hugely endearing. I could totally empathise with her apprehension in certain situations and I loved the way she sought the advice from her girlfriends. There’s actually a great group of supporting characters, including Peggy’s mom, who I now want as my best friend.
It’s been a long time since I was in high school and, whilst I appreciate the fact that these kids are teenagers acting like teenagers and not 40 year olds, my attraction to Dash did make me feel slightly guilty. However, he could, without a doubt, give some older men a run for their money and so I decided to channel my inner youth and accept he would be my guilty pleasure.
Although I wouldn’t go back to school for love nor money, this story brought back all the warm feelings and memories of the fun times I had from those teenage years. Times when you felt quite giddy when a boy you liked paid you some attention, when music and hanging out with your friends was life, and when, although you were still discovering who you were, nevertheless you felt invincible.
Kiss and Break up is a well written, very enjoyable read and for lovers of NA with, in my opinion, a slightly YA feel, this is definitely one to check out.
Synopsis:
Dashiell Thane wasn’t a nice guy.
He was an abrasive, demanding, conniving, intolerable brat.
Yet somehow, we’d been best friends our whole lives.
Until our senior year when I finally decided to dip my toes into the dating pool.
All it took was one kiss for jealousy, lies, and betrayal to sweep in and propel us heart first into dizzying, hostile depths.
You’re not supposed to kiss your best friend.
You’re definitely not supposed to kiss your best friend while you’re dating someone else.
And the absolute worst thing you could do is fall for your best friend.
Unless, of course, you want to ruin everything.
