Dear Big V by Ellen W. Leroe

Dear Big V:
a review by Kim Bacciella

Courtney Cordon is the founder of Donuts and Coffee, her high school’s abstinence club. But recently she’s been at odds with the Lewds, the popular kids of her school. Then she’s assigned a dream piece for her newspaper. Problem is she has to team up with the hottest guy at her school, Lance, who’s also known as a player. Working with him brings out emotions she didn’t think she had—some of which involve confusion over her chaste ideals.

This is a fun, zippy tale that is funny with a likeable and sympathetic heroine. The voice is unique and catchy. Courtney’s struggles are real especially when she’s teamed with Lance, who brings up issues she thought she didn’t have. How does she deal with the whole idea that she might like making out with a cute guy while still being part of a club that tells her it's wrong to have these feelings? This is sure to be a topic many can relate with.

Her diary entries to Big V, her virginity, are hilarious. This is one of the appeals of this story. The author does a great job of addressing sensitive subjects without being preachy.
