Kissing Kate

Kissing Kate by Lauren Myracle is the story of one teenager trying to figure out who she is. Lissa and Kate had been best friends for four years. Then Kate kissed Lissa. And Lissa kissed her back. Now Kate is pretending that Lissa doesn’t exist.

Lissa, with the help of her new friend Ariel and a book on lucid dreaming, is on a quest to find out who she is. It turns out she already knows who she is, she just needs to admit it to herself.

This is a warm and funny book about coming of age and learning to be okay with who you are meant to be. And everyone’s life would be just a little more bearable with a crazy friend like Ariel.
