Anna is looking forward to her senior year in Atlanta, where she has a great job, a loyal best friend, and a crush on the verge of becoming more. Which is why she is less than thrilled about being shipped off to boarding school in Paris - until she meets Etienne St. Clair: perfect, Parisian (and English and American, which makes for a swoon-worthy accent), and utterly irresistible. The only problem is that he's taken, and Anna might be, too, if anything comes of her almost-relationship back home.

As winter melts into spring, will a year of romantic near - misses end with the French kiss Anna - and listeners - have long awaited?

Would you recommend this audiobook to a friend? If so, why?

I would totally recommend this book/audiobook to a friend. The story was really cute and the characters were fun and likable. Yes, it is mostly romance, but there are also elements of friendship, family, and coming-of-age that were great too.

What other book might you compare Anna and the French Kiss to and why?

I don't think I have read another book like this one. Mainly because I liked almost all the characters you were supposed to like and the romance wasn't over the top. It was believable.

What does Kim Mai Guest bring to the story that you wouldn’t experience if you just read the book?

This is the first performer I have come across that doesn't bother me. Kim adds to the story instead of takes away from it because her voice isn't obnoxious. I liked all of her character voices, and her regular narrator voice was great.

Was there a moment in the book that particularly moved you?

I loved all of the moments that involved Anna's love of film. She watched some really great movies throughout the story and I really enjoyed that. I liked that I could relate to her love of cinema. And if I am going to be honest, any time St. Claire was in the picture. Those were great moments.

Any additional comments?

Great performance. Great story.

A charming performance of an adorable story.
