It's always been a dream of mine to visit Europe; London and Paris are the top two cities that I want to visit in particular. So when I accidentally found this book in Borders about a week ago, I immediately read the synopsis and found myself intrigued - three love stories set against the backdrop of London, Paris and Rome? It was no question that I would buy the book.
Overall, the book was a good read. I enjoyed immersing myself into the world of the three main characters (Robin, Da More...

Rachel Hawthorne is one of my favorite authors and I can't exactly explain why but her books always speak to the romantic in me and linger in my mind after I have read them. Quite a few find their way onto my keeper shelf so I am always interested in reading other books by her.

A story about three best friends in an exchange program at school, who go off to Europe for a year. One goes to England, the second France and then the third to Italy. Petty conflict ensues in every tale, where each girl then SURPRISE! ends up living happily ever after with the boy of her dreams. A light, fun read for cuddling up in bed on cold, winter nights with a cup of hot chocolate and a big blanket. Nothing too exciting happens though, your typical, clichéd teenage romance. And definitely

Three best friends from Texas set out together to spend a year of high school in Europe's biggest cities.
Kit travels to London to try and become a proper lady. She believes that she'll have a new sister as a housemate -- imagine her surprise when Robin turns out to be a boy (and a real hottie!). Unfortunately, he has a girlfriend with serious snark aimed at Kit and all of her traveling blunders.

- I wasn't sure if I should count these stories as one book or not, but I found out you can buy each story separately! My first Rachel Hawthorne book was Caribbean Cruising which I enjoyed. The Europe stories were very predictable, dramatic, and juvenile.
+ The London story reminded me of the cute British penpal I had in 11th grade, the Paris story was my favorite because it was the most realistic, and I liked the Italy section because it reminded me a little bit of my trip to Rome!

It is so cheesy I found myself smiling to myself (on the train) at the predicaments the girls found themselves in. Was it predictable? Yes. Was it over the top? Hell Yeah! But such an easy read. A bit repetitive at times and obvious that the lead characters are so dumb, but I could relate to their denial of situations =p. My fave story was Dana & Alex (the Paris exchange).

In a "A Year In Europe" we follow Robin to the U.K, Dana to Paris and Carrie to Rome. AS you read each story we watch as the three best friends fall in love. Out of all the friends Robin's story was my least favourite. My favourite story in the whole book is Dana and Alex's story it was just so cute and full ahhhhhh moments. Carrie's and Antonio was the story that surpised me the most with how much I loved it and the characters. From the summary I thought Antonio was going to be a comp

This was the first actual teen romance novel that I had ever read. At first, I wasn't very eager to read it. But as soon as I started reading the first chapter, I was literally hooked. I liked the way the other wrote it from the point of view of two people. I definitely recommend this book to all people who like romance books.

one of the most amazing books I've ever read. I've read it a gazillion times already and it never gets old. It's one of those books that instantly makes you feel better and really makes you believe in love, in case you ever forget.

This book was a pretty fun read. And I learned some slang for my trip to London in July. I loved how Hawthorne wove the girls' stories together with emails, phone calls, and visits. It was really wonderful and a really relaxing, fun read.

It was cute. I enjoyed reading the book. It took some time to finish the book but eventually I did. It wasn't as good as love on the lifts. It was a good book. I would recommend it to anyone.

I can honestly say this is one of the cheesiest love stories i have ever read! However, that being said, it was also one of the funnest. It was an easy read, with a fairly good plot. The novel was split up into three parts about three friends and the idea of the novel was a good one. However, though repition can be a good thing, in this case it wasn't. It made for a very long book to read. Although I didn't enjoy the book, I did like one of the characters, Robin. She was a light-spirited charact

they're really not that bad, but unless you just want something to read that's easy and short, than there's not much reason to read this

As this book says, it is three novels in one book. I made it through the first one. I used to torture myself and make myself finish every book I started. Then I wised up and realized there are way too many good books out there to agonize over ones I don't love. This book was very cliched and cookie cutter boring. I don't recommend it, unless you have a lot of time to kill!

This three in one book was pretty good, yet after awhile it seemed to drag on. A good pointer is that everything ended with a happy ending =]. What I learned from this is that a guy who you like can only deserve to see your true self, that romance isn't what it seems to be, and the truth is to never be forgotten.

I don't care that this is a teen book; it's probably one of my favorites. A good beach read and very light heart-ted and romantic. I'd recommend it if you want a break from other 'intense' books
