Naomi & Ely’s No Kiss List

September 5, 2007 Stephanie Leary Leave a Comment

No Kiss List

I really like both Rachel Cohn and David Levithan when they’re writing individually. But together they are amazing. I adored Nick and Norah’s Infinite Playlist. I couldn’t let it out of my hands; I started over and read it again as soon as I was done with it.

I think Naomi & Ely’s No Kiss List is even better. It’s a tiny bit more grown-up, a bit more serious, a little less incandescently fun. It plays with POV, giving it a wider scope — although Nick and Norah never felt claustrophobic. It’s funny as hell, but it also made me cry here and there.

I might just have to read it again tomorrow.
