V is for Virgin by Kelly Oram
3.0

I appreciate this book because it is important for girls to be able to have books like this. It doesn't tie a girl wanting to not have sex with religion but with her own personal choice. While that isn't for everyone it is important for girls to know that there is nothing wrong with making that choice. I also liked that it included girls who had sex but regretted it for various reasons.
Now on to what I thought of the characters. While almost every character in this book (except Robin and Eric) annoyed me at some point Cara was by far the worst. Isaac was insanely boring and I forgot he was even there 85% of the time but he was also the only person who actually cared about what Val wanted or needed. He was the only one who actually ever listened to her. I enjoyed that there were so many good female characters that weren't demonized and that Val and Olivia ended up being friends. The chemistry between Kyle and Val was obvious but also he was an ass so whatever. It'd probably be better to be with boring Isaac who actually respected you than Kyle the ass who is hot.
