(This is my own click. Didn't get it from any website. Planning on keeping all my further posts like this. Gonna stop stealing from google :p just kidding!)
Synopsis: As sophomores at Ocean High, Winter and her best friend, Sloane, make a pact to do whatever it takes to make it to the top of the social pyramid. But once Sloane gets a taste of what it's like to fit in with the cool girls, she all but slams that door in Winter's face. Left without her best-friend-since-forever, Winter decides to take revenge the good old fashioned way: By airing Sloane's dirty secrets on an anonymous blog. But is her retaliation worth the consequences? And is the price for popularity one that Winter is willing to pay? Alyson Noël once again navigates the tricky waters of the high school social scene with the heart and humor her readers have come to love. Funny, heartwarming and completely entertaining, Kiss and Blog is the beautifully repackaged reissue of No.1 New York Times bestseller Alyson Noël's beloved novel.

The Review:
| First I thought this book had already given away the plot in the title and the synopsis.But I`m glad I was wrong when I thought this book would end with a suicide or a sad story. It was different . I was really surprised when I read a blog update. The secrets are so funny, and jaw dropping and unbelievably true! I can't imagine how Alyson Noel came up with those secrets. I loved Rey! Totally a Rey-girl right now. (Sorry Zach and Hale) It's so true. I thought I was reading somebody's true story, you know. I personally loved the book. And this time the first two chapters weren't as boring to me as all the other Alyson Noel books I`ve read. But, apart from all the good, you might find this a common story. There are only two possibilities I could probably come up with when I started the book: 1. Winter ruins Sloane's social status through a blog and when everyone comes to know what Winter has done, they outcast her (even though is she kinda already an outcast) and then she kills herself. But if you have read Noel's books, you will know her books don't end so depressing....but I won't tell if this one did or didn't. 2. Winter ruins Sloane and becomes the queen bee and Sloane apologies and they own the school together. Can call this a happy ending...right? I will leave it to you to find out. No spoilers here. Buy it! If this doesn't keep you interested, the boys in the book will. I like the sound of that- BOYS IN THE BOOK! Anyway, so there is one guy at the beginning- Cash Davis. Then his brother's name makes an appearance who is head over heels for Winter's sister, Autumn (yes, they are named after seasons. How cool is that?!) . I think this particular revelation was included so that Winter realizes how lame her life is even though she dresses well and isn't a total psycho but her sister on the other hand dresses like a 'hippie' (Noel's words, not mine) . |
My Favorite Lines/Quotes:
When you really like the guy, it's never just a kiss.
And he goes, "Guess where I am."
And since I`m supposed to guess, I go, "Um, New Delhi?"
Memories are the only things we really own, the only things that stay constant. Everything else becomes dust.
People change, secrets are sacred, and with the right people in attendance, even the lowliest lunch table can feel like the warmest place on the planet.
These lines were included in the blog posts in the book and I liked a few. Here you go:
"You can observe a lot by watching - Yogi Berra
"Talk low, talk slow, and don't say too much" - John Wayne's advice on acting.
"For a good cause, wrong doing is virtuous" - Pubilius Syrus.
Be who are and say what you feel, because those who mind don't matter and those who matter don't mind." - Dr. Seuss
