Summary: Too Tantalizing for Teens
Comment: A bit too saucy for teens...but it absolutely hits the spot for a lonely, widowed middle-aged woman! I was captivated by the romance of the two young lovers. Although I feel that this book is slightly too sexually perverse for the young adult audience, those of us yearning to feel the flame of youthful romance will find it absolutely mezmerising.

Summary: Alessandra in love
Comment: It's just like real realationships bettween young high school kids.Alessandra was in love with a guy named Wyn and they went out like boyfriend and girlfriend.At first I thought it was about a young girl that likes punk rock music and likes to dresses like a punk rocker and she likes a guy that likes classical music and dresses very nice. I thought that the well dressed guy wouldn't like the punk rock girl it turns out there going out. They have realife situations and they have to solve them. Alessandra's friend first found out she was suprised and couldn't belive it.I think it's a wounderful book but I think 7th graders and up should read it because it deals with adult stuff.

Summary: Very well-written and quite pleasant; a gem of its genre.
Comment: I came across this book in my sweetheart's bookcase not long after we began dating. I never gave it much thought, and certainly didn't consider picking it up to read and enjoy. But one day I found myself scanning the bookcases for something light to read, and decided to go for this book. I'm a bit old for the young adult books, but I remember reading them quite avidly. None of the books I read when I was younger compare to Alessandra In Love. The main character is instantly recognizable -- you had someone in your high school just like her, I'll bet -- and doesn't quite fit the phrase "main character" so much as "star of the show." I was amazed at how well Kaplow captured the mind of a teenage girl. Reading the story without knowing the author, you would think it was written by Alessandra herself, rather than a male English teacher who once had his own rock band. Alessandra In Love is an exquisite book, and although it is a fast read for adults, it is certainly an engrossing novel for the young adult set.
