Love and Other Perishable Items - Laura Buzo This one was kind of cute, but one of those YA novels that are drastically better for an actual teenager than for twentysomething me. It's about a fifteen-year-old girl with a crush on a twenty-year-old guy she works with at a local grocery store. She knows nothing's really going to happen given their age difference, but she can't really quell the butterflies. It's written very true to a fifteen-year-old's voice and intersperses diary entries from Chris's perspective. I liked it and I'd recommend it to tweens looking for a light read, but it was a little too young for me to really lose myself in.
