    Lisi is an NBK - she’s never been kissed.  Lisi would really like to be kissed by her crush, Brett, who also happens
    to be the most popular guy in school.  She doesn’t think her chances are very high, since Lisi in not in the "in" crowd.  

    Springtime at Northside High means planning for the famous Spring Carnival.  Spring Carnival is a huge deal, and this
    year the stakes are high for having the winning booth.  Whichever booth sells the most tickets wins a trip to New
    York City.  When planning for the school’s Spring Carnival starts, Lisi gets the inspiration for a kissing booth.  Lisi is
    secretly hoping she will finally get her first kiss from handsome Brett, but Lisi’s not the only one with secrets.

    After the popular fly girls make the Kissing Booth their main target for competition, rumors start to fly and the kissing
    booth crew just might have gotten themselves in too deep.  And Lisi just might be falling for the wrong guy.  

    I’m a sucker for romances, and I couldn’t resist the adorable red and white cover for this one!  I loved the idea of an
    old-fashioned kissing booth and wished I could go to the Spring Carnival with Lisi and her friends.  Even though the
    story is mainly a romance, there’s also a sub-plot on friends growing up and growing apart that I thought added some
    depth to the story.  

    KISSING BOOTH felt like it could have been a script for a great romantic comedy, and was a perfect feel-good
    book that left me smiling.  A must read for fans of romance!
