A Kid's Review

This review is from: Him She Loves? (Library Binding)

Him She Loves? A story about love and overcoming obsticles. I could hardly put the book down I was so anxious to know what would happen next.It starts with Henry Schiller falling in love again, which is the last thing he needs. Before moving to Seaville he ended things with his last girlfriend Lena, but when Valerie Kissenwiser, daughter of famous comedian Al Kiss, walked into his family owned resturant looking for a place to hold her sister's Sweet Sixteen party he couldn't help it.After getting to know Henry, Valerie tells him that she too loves him and wishes to be with him. Valerie's father thinks it would be a bad idea so he forbids the both of them to see each other after he cathes them together in a supposed to be empty house. Valerie and Henry plot ways to see each other secertly without anyone ever suspecting anything. Henry goes to "war" with Al Kiss to be able to see Valerie openly. In the end Al Kiss finaly lets them see each other. Things go sour for Valerie and Henry when Henry and Al Kiss get too close. They break up leaving Henry with this lesson: Love doesn't always last forever, but the memories that you make are always great to have.

Wow! An excellent teen love storyby M.E Kerr. Which sadly shows us that love is not forever. It is about Henry and Valerie, in the middle of they'r teen years, that fall deeply in love but are not allowed to date by her ftaher, All Kiss a famous comedian around the U.S, not only because Henry is not Jewish but because he is yonger than Valerie. It takes you through all theirstruggle to get accepted by Valerie's family as a couple. It is a very intresting adventure which takes you through all their ploys to see each other and to be toguether. It is narrratedby Henry, the Romeo, of this marvellous love story. M.E Kerr really shows off with this book and makes you fall in love with it's characters. It is a really easy read which doesn't let you put down the book. You can easily relate with the story if you have fallen deeply in love and have obstacles to pass. It is a short, good love story which will make you see the importance of love and friendshipin life. It will capture you'r heart completly. I recomend this story to evryone who has ever fallen in love and been disapointed and to love story lovers.
