Lola and the Boy Next Door

by Stephanie Perkins

I dare you to find more than a handful of people who disliked the first novel in this trilogy, it's amazing at how well-received it was and I personally loved it and have held onto it to read again before BUYING the sequel :)

September 29th 2011 by Dutton - In this companion novel to Anna and the French Kiss, two teens discover that true love may be closer than they think.

For budding costume designer Lola Nolan, the more outrageous, the outfit—more sparkly, more fun, more wild—the better. But even though Lola’s style is outrageous, she’s a devoted daughter and friend with some big plans for the future. And everything is pretty perfect (right down to her hot rocker boyfriend) until the dreaded Bell twins move back into the house next door.

When the family returns and Cricket—a gifted inventor and engineer—steps out from his twin sister’s shadow and back into Lola’s life, she must finally reconcile a lifetime of feelings for the boy next door.
