French Kiss Diary of a Crush Book 1 Sarra Manning Books Reviews

I think what this book really has going for it is the main character Edie. She's moody (like most teenagers) she's shy and brash, she's nerdy and arty but somehow is cool too. She's a good combination of alot of things that any teen girl is. She gets confused and emotive and its great. She is a character I could see actually meeting somewhere out there in the world.

Her friends and fellow students are a bit more two dimensional, and perhaps that's just because it is Edie's diary, I wish they had a bit more depth, but its acceptable, she makes up for their lack.

I wouldn't reccomend this book for everyone.

It's light and fluffy, good for someone who liked the "Angus, Thongs and Full Frontal Snogging" series but is a little bit older this character is 16/17 in the book and her friends are mostly 19 year olds so there are mature topics that get discussed (though nothing too crazy happens, and the main character does make good choices in regards to how she is going to live her life)

Probably good for someone around 16ish.
I really like reading books that are in diary form, and author Sarra Manning doesn't disappoint with the diary of Edie (short for Edith) Wheeler, a sixteen-year old college student living in Manchester, England. I will admit that it was sometimes difficult for me to follow along with this book, mostly due to some terms I wasn't familiar with and situations that are different from those in the United States. Once you realize, however, that A-levels in college appear to equal being a Freshman, and that sixteen isn't, in fact, too young to be attending college when college appears to be another word for high school, and that some social situations "across the pond" are very different than you're used to, you'll get into the rhythm of FRENCH KISS quite easily.

Edie has fallen in love at first sight with Dylan, a guy in her Photography class. The problem is that she isn't the only one. Her good friend, Shona, also seems to have a thing for him, and it's driving her crazy. Add to that the fact that Mia, a crazy-popular girl that Edie has been talking with has a thing going with Paul, Dylan's best friend, and it gets a little complicated. But that's not the end of it. Mia is using Edie to get Paul off her back so she can get with Dylan, Shona wants to be with Paul but thinks Edie likes him, and Dylan is kissing with Edie but having intimate conversations with Mia. Yes, it's truly a complicated situation.

As the class gears up to take a trip to Paris, things with Dylan seem to be alternately heating up and cooling off. They can't seem to keep their hands off of each other when they're alone, and yet around anyone else Dylan only treats her like a friend. Even though she's patched things up with Shona, Mia is still in the picture, and Edie is getting tired of it all.

Before these teens leave the most romantic city in the world, some things will have to come to a head. Ultimatums will be made, friendships will be either solidified or ruined, and Edie will learn once and for all if Dylan is the love of her life. FRENCH KISS is a fun, easy read that will have you rooting for this great couple, and hoping that Mia, with her dirty tricks, will be shown for what she really is by the end of the book.
Gather round kids! I'm going to tell you a story about the good ol' days! A time before Twitter, iPhones, and gasp! the !!! No it wasn't 1875! It was the late 90′s and I was still a teenager (physically anyway, emotionally I still am and to be honest my chest never got the puberty memo O-O) reading my fave teen mag J17.

Every month there was a serial called "Diary of a Crush" featuring uber cool cat Edie and her epic romance with the sulky but sultry boyshape - Dylan. It became required reading for me and my friends (after the Problem Pages cos...you know!) and we were enthralled with each new instalment of their saga and when J17 commissioned 3 novellas for even more adventures of Edie to give away as gifts with the mag - well it was like Christmas!

Before YA really took hold and became the successful machine it is today most of my "YA" novels came from the US like Babysitter's Club, Sweet Valley High and Nancy Drew with some Judy Blume stuck in there too. There was no real UK/Ireland YA stories so when Sarra Manning started DOAC it was such a relief to read about teens that spoke like us, had the same cultural references and social backgrounds. Now with the internet and the age of instant information everything meshes together and there's a uniformity to the young person's social experience globally that wasn't there when I was growing up so it was extra special.

I'm delighted that Atom books have decided to republish Diary of a Crush incorporating the magazine entries and novellas into three separate volumes. While Manning has updated the boy crushes, music references and fashion to reflect the noughties there is still that spine tingling excitement when reading that brings me right back to huddling in the school yard, clutching the magazine and reading with my friends.

Diary of a Crush French Kiss follows Edie as she moves with her parents to Manchester from Brighton and has to settle into a new town, school, social circle. As Edie slowly makes new friends (and enemies) and falls madly in love with broody Dylan who drives her crazy with lust one minute and rage the next and bonds with new pals Shona, Nat and Trent, she comes out of her shell and makes some discoveries about herself and those around her. On a school trip to Paris, Edie gets swept up in the romantic atmosphere and we discover whether she and Dylan are the real deal or will the only souvenir be hearbreak?

I adore Edie, she's very much the typical teenager without Manning resorting to bestowing Bella-esque traits on her. She's fun, sweet, caring and utterly frustrating at times as she lets her stubborn side get the better of her. She's sixteen and all her friends are nineteen so at times the age difference is glaringly obvious but Edie has a lot of layers and a unique maturity of her own. Dylan is the typical moody hotty we all know and love with the blistering kisses coupled with the cold shoulder that those bad boys do so well. Their relationship goes through many twists and turns but it always has that element of real about it and never jumps into epic insta-love territory we see so often in YA.

I love her friend Shona with her hip edgy style and caustic wit and Nat and Trent are adorable and a real support for Edie.

It was pure nostalgia to reread this book and I enjoyed the trip down memory lane immensely. It was just as much fun to read it while pushing 30 as it was as a teen (seriously there's no difference between me then and now!) and it confirmed Diary of a Crush as one of my all time favourite teen series.
Great little series for teens, young adult or adults.
First read this in Just17 and loved it.
This was a cute read. And I must say I love Sarra Manning's writing style. It's really awesome and makes me want to read from her.
Favorite book ever. No matter how many times I read it. Came in pretty good condition.
