Sex as a Second Language
Sex as a Second Language, by Alisa Kwitney
Plot: Kat is a former actress whose husband has left her and won't see their son. She's struggling to make end's meet and teaching a ESL class, where she meets a hunky Icelandic student who really is a CIA agent who needs her help tracking down her missing father. Yeah, it's complicated.
What I Liked About It: Kwitney is pretty humorous. The book was realistic I thought, and I liked the scenes about her dealing as a single mother.
What I Didn't Like: The CIA stuff I could live without. Also, the sex scenes were kind of weird, like really graphic but also weird.
Buy/Library/Store/Avoid: I'd get this one from the library. A good summer read, but I didn't love it.
If You Liked This, You May Also Like: Other Alisa Kwitney such as Does She or Doesn't She or The Dominant Blonde.
