This book made a really inspiring female lead. Even if she is fictional, Virgin Val, can be anyone's role model and that is the best part of the book.
That ending, and how she was determined to stay that way, made this a really good read.
Unique and inspirational.

Die romantische Seite kommt meiner Meinung nach ein wenig zu kurz. Ausserdem hätte ich mur vei den Charakteren mehr tiefe gewünscht sie waren meines Erachtens nach eher oberflächlich ich konnte mich nicht wirklich in sie einfühlen. Ansonsten finde ich das Buch schön geschrieben und das thema das behandelt wird wichtig.

Well
The ending made me kinda mad :c
But the whole story was cute and finally something different from the rest. I liked the friendship aspect and thought it should have been a bigger part of the story.
The rockstar romance was pretty useless and did nothing super good for the story in my opinion

I can always count on Kelly Oram to get me out of a slump. If I want a light, fun and sweet romance, I just have to read one of her books and I feel better instantly! V is for Virgin is one of the books of hers I hadn't read yet and now I have to wonder why that is because it's just as good as the other ones are!
V is for Virgin is about Valerie. After being dumped by her boyfriend because she wants to wait until marriage with sex, she starts the V is for Virgin campaign. It doesn't take long to excalade into something bigger than she could've imagined. The downside is Kyle. Lead singer of Tralse, the band that helped her campaign more than they realise. He's made it his personal mission to her change her mind.
Going into this I was afraid that I wouldn't be able to relate to the main character because we are so different. But of course I didn't need to be scared. I loved Valerie and I did understand how she felt. I didn't find this unrealistic either. In these times, I think it's very possible for something like this to happen. People have become famous for a lot less in the past few years.
I did hate Zach at first because of how he treated Valerie but he redeemed himself. I did love Kyle but I wanted to know more about him! I didn't buy the "romance" with Isaac. Didn't feel it and it felt a bit forced. I loved Cara at first, but I hated how she started treating Valerie after she got Shane as a boyfriend. He's Kyle's bandmate and best friend and while I didn't see enough of him to hate him, I didn't like how it changed Cara. I loved the rest of the side characters though.
Ugh this review is all over the place. That's how it feels anyway. I'm not feeling 100% so sorry for babbling away! I love this author and I needs to read more from her.

Personnage préféré : Isaac
Critique : J’ai trouvé que le personnage masculin était juste mauvais. De plus, il y a un passage qui m’a assez choquée : « The thought of being with someone who’s never been with anyone is hot. Getting to be the first person to make a girl feel like a woman? To be in complete control, and watch her experience new sensations for the first time? Teach her things. » À travers cela, j’ai compris qu’il cherchait surtout à contrôler une femme ; en particulier, l’idée que l’expérience sexuelle rend une femme femme est ridicule et misogyne.
Avis : J’ai quand même beaucoup aimé l’histoire. Le style d’écriture de l’autrice est génial et on tourne rapidement les pages. C’était une lecture très addictive.
Néanmoins, ce qui m’a dérangée, ce sont parfois les personnages insupportables et les situations plutôt irréalistes. J’ai également trouvé que l’intrigue aurait pu être mieux développée. Si je n’ai pas apprécié Kyle la plupart du temps à cause de son comportement insistant, j’ai tout de même de l’espoir pour lui dans le tome deux, tout comme pour Val. Avec le temps, j’espère qu’ils auront tous deux mûri et gagné en maturité. En tout cas, j’ai hâte de lire la suite.
