All Elise wants is to have her first kiss before she turns sixteen. Is that so bad? But when a friend's poor advice and the powers of electronic technology combine, Elise heads down a dangerous road. She is accused of "sexting" and gets kicked out of school. But is she really the one to blame? This powerful and realistic story from beloved author Melody Carlson shows teen girls the impact of their choices when it comes to respecting themselves and their integrity. Honest and relevant, Never Been Kissed will make girls laugh, cry . . . and think.

Last year I had the privilege of reading Just Another Girl and I found that to be a book I could relate to in my past memories and desire to share with my nieces and daughter in the appropriate future years. It seems almost everything I read from Melody Carlson strikes a cord with me and most other readers. This time however I was not really drawn into Never Been Kissed. I guess it was because I found the main character to be tiresome and the overall broken home situations depressing. Yet at the same time I realize this book was not written for me, but there are plenty of girls out there that will strike deep in their hearts with this book and benefit from the message within greatly.
