Book Club Collection: 'Anna and the French Kiss' by Stephanie Perkins

Can Anna find love in the City of Light?

Anna is happy in Atlanta. She has a loyal best friend and a crush on her coworker at the movie theater, who is just starting to return her attention. So she's less than thrilled when her father decides to send her to a boarding school in Paris for her senior year. But despite not speaking of word of French, Anna meets some cool new people, including the handsome Étienne St. Clair, who quickly becomes her best friend. Unfortunately, he's taken—and Anna might be, too. Will a year of romantic near misses end with the French kiss she's been waiting for?

Hi, there! I'm Stephanie Perkins, and I'm a New York Times, USA Today, and international bestselling author of books for teenagers and for adults with teenage hearts. My work has been published in over twenty-five territories, and my novel There’s Someone Inside Your House was adapted into a major motion picture for Netflix.

I was born in South Carolina, raised in Arizona, and I attended universities in California and Georgia. Since 2004, I've lived in the mountains of North Carolina.

I've always worked with books—first as a bookseller, then as a librarian, now as a novelist and editor. My best friend is my husband Jarrod. Every room of our house is painted a different color of the rainbow, and we share it with a feisty cat named Mr. Tumnus.
