A first kiss

In my youth, I was quite a bookworm (I still am). I’m not a complete nerd because I read a lot of fluff along with the classics. One love story I will forever hold in my tween heart — though I can't recall the actual title — was this book I refer to as The Red Cherry Jalopy (I’ve tried to Google it with no luck!). It was a perfect, romantic novel about young love. As I said before, I read a lot of fluff and when I ran across this little fanfiction (ok, don’t judge until you’ve actually read a few), I could not put it down. It was The Red Cherry Jalopy all over again. I found myself laughing out loud and remembering the innocent days of middle school — yes, this is safe for 13+ reading. While I don’t normally rec teen reading material, it’s a sweet little story for all ages, perfect for Valentines — geeky Edward stole my heart. Check it out: An Introduction to Swirl and Daisy 

Summery: A first kiss, a first dance, a first curse word shared between best friends. This is the tale of a boring young geek and the social pariah who thought the world of him. A tale of growing up. A tale of a non-romantic romance.
