Summary:   The Camp Kiss That Started It All…

Lauren Carlson, a fourteen-year-old expert on the cosmos, superheroes, and science fiction trivia has a crush on her longtime camp friend, Seth. Last summer she’d dreamed about upgrading their relationship to BF/GF status and this year she has a plan… if only her well-meaning cabin mates wouldn’t interfere before she’s ready. She hasn’t even adjusted to her new braces yet, let alone imagined kissing Seth with them. When a dare pushes her out of her comfort zone, will she and Seth rocket out of the friendzone at last? There’s only one way to find out…

My Thoughts: This was a cute little novella. It takes place before Camp Kiss. We are introduced to Lauren, whose a 14 year old girl with braces and kind of nerdy.

Every summer she goes off to camp and really enjoys it. She enjoys spending time with her camp friends, and they understand her. She can be herself there. She doesn’t have to impress anyone, everyone already likes her.

She also has a friend there named Seth. He’s one of her best friends but she also has a crush on him and has for a while now.

Well, on the first night of camp she gets dared to kiss Seth. Her friends know she has had a crush on him and they want to make something finally happen.

Lauren spends so much time debating on kissing him, that I just want her to do it already! She finally does and she figures out Seth’s true feelings for her as well.

I really thought this was a cute novella. I’m excited to read Camp Kiss soon! Hopefully this novel is a good set up for it.

Overall: Very cute novella! It was pretty short so we didn’t get to know the characters very well but hope that changes when I read the full book!

Cover: It’s ok. Kind of plain but in a good way. 

What I'd Give It:
