Anna K Away picks up the story from [b:Anna K: A Love Story|45043369|Anna K A Love Story (Anna K, #1)|Jenny Lee|https://i.gr-assets.com/images/S/compressed.photo.goodreads.com/books/1564772321l/45043369._SY75_.jpg|65711594], which was a modern retelling of [b:Anna Karenina|15823480|Anna Karenina|Leo Tolstoy|https://i.gr-assets.com/images/S/compressed.photo.goodreads.com/books/1601352433l/15823480._SX50_.jpg|2507928]. In Anna K Away, we follow several of the characters during the summer following the events of Anna K. Anna is heartbroken over the loss of her first love, Vronsky. She is also dealing with the fall out of their sex video being leaked. To escape all this, Anna's father takes her with him to visit family in South Korea. Anna's brother's girlfriend Lolly spends the summer at theater camp where she meets a co-star who sparks something in her. Bea goes to California and meets a lovely young woman. Kimmie spends the summer in NYC with her new boyfriend Dustin. The story pops around between these 4 different storylines as we see who the summer of the crew from Anna K shakes out.
This was a fun read. Like the first novel, this is edgy YA about a group of well-off teens. More sex, drugs and rock & roll but this time with a splash of K-pop.
I listened to the audio book for this one and it was well done and a fun listen. Two thumbs up for the audiobook. :)
Thank you to the publisher for the audiobook.
