BOOK NEWS: Extreme Kissing

51z18id9qkl_sl500_aa240_Luisa Plaja's debut, Split By A Kiss, was one of my favourite books of last year, so I am v. excited about her second book, Extreme Kissing, due out... next April! April! Gah, that's ages away! Anyway, time flies, so it'll be here before we know it.
And what's the book about?

Carlota and Bethany are best friends. Bethany is the sensible one with a long-term boyfriend, Carlota is the crazy one with a wild past and rebellious nature. All is fine in their world - apart from Carlota hating her stepdad and longing for a old flame. And apart from Bethany thinking her boyfriend is about to dump her and that her period is late...

Carlota comes up with a plan to put all their troubles behind them and go on a girls-only wild day out, with only their favourite magazine to guide them through the day. If they open it on a fashion page they have to get hold of a fabulous new outfit and pretend to be models. If they open it to a page on snogging, they have to find a boy to snog. The magazine will take them everywhere they need to go - but will it help them to reveal the secrets they are keeping from each other?

  • Hmmm. The cover makes me think this book is for little girls, but the subject matter has me a little confused. Is this YA? I have trouble imagining two grown women running around town taking cues from a fashion mag, but I can certainly believe a couple of teens doing it.
