Kissing Snowflakes

Before I came into this class I hated reading. There was only one book out of about 500 books I've had to read that I actually liked; it was called Speak. I have read about 5 books in this class and every single one that I've read I enjoyed. This one I'm reading now is called Kissing Snowflakes. I like this book probably the most. I've just started reading it so I don't know if it's my favorite yet, but I think I like it more than the others so far because the main character, Samantha Levy, reminds me a lot of myself. She is stubborn, shy when she's around certain people, very opinionated, and her mother and father are divorced. Her dad married someone else who is now Sam's step mom, and she doesn't like her at all mostly because she is taking her dad away from her. That is exactly how I felt when my dad married another women after divorcing my mom. 

Sam, her brother, and dad and Kathy, her new step mom, are all going to a ski resort for spring break. Neither of them have skied before except for Jeramy, her brother. Sam is planning on finding a guy she can cuddle up near the fire while she's up there. She has never had a boyfriend, mostly because she is really shy when she's around guys she likes. However, during this trip she and her best friend promised that she would find a guy she could call her boyfriend. I am anxious to find out what happens with that plan, and to see how she and her step mom get along during this trip.
