Lola and the Boy Next Door

Lola and the Boy Next Door by Stephanie Perkins

Lola likes to dress up. She isn’t what one would call a girl of high fashion, no she much prefers to walk on the wild side; the more glitter, the more feathers, the more absurdity--the better! Her life is full of excitement, including the perfect punk rock boyfriend, two amazing parents, and a best friend that totally gets her. Everything is going along until the Bell twins move back into town… Cricket and Calliope, two people Lola never wanted to see again. As Cricket pushes himself back into her life, Lola must comes to terms with the feelings she once--and maybe still has--for the boy next door.

Packed with more lovable, crushable, and hilarious characters, this novel will surely keep you turning pages. Though it is a companion novel to Anna and the French Kiss, it is not told from the same point of view. But many of the characters we grew to love in Anna do make another appearance in Lola’s world (more page time with Etienne)!
