Chasing Lucky
by Jenn Bennett
Jenn Bennett does it again!
I LOVED Lucky Karrass and Josie Saint-Martin. They used to be childhood friends before they were separated by unfortunate circumstances. When Josie comes back to town, she runs into Lucky almost immediately and she sees just how much he has grown. She has a lot of problems though. From trying to build her photography portfolio to impress her absent dad to dealing with the family love curse, there's a lot on her plate. She shouldn't get closer to Lucky again and she definitely shouldn't be feeling butterflies in her stomach when she sees him.
She's one of the few YA authors that I consistently enjoy her stories and everything else. Her characters are very flawed and extremely likeable and there are very real consequences. What I also love is that she's sex positive and doesn't have her characters feel shame for being a normal teen. Josie and Lucky have great chemistry as friends and more. Their banter is fun and their summer adventure is exactly that. From the accidental breaking of an historic window in town to being stranded on a little island during a storm, you can't really predict what will happy in this book. There's heartache, angst, and plenty of humor throughout the book. Lucky is definitely the boy I would be falling for if I were a teenage. His loyalty is admirable and he wears his heart on his sleeve. Josie has a lot of developing to do and plenty to learn before she really understands her place in the world.
If you're a fan of any other Jenn Bennett books, I would definitely recommend this one.
