A first kiss, on Sara Lin’s terms

Set during Sara’s senior year, the story turns a bet with her friend Patrick into a question about what a first kiss should mean. Sara treats it as a rite of passage and hopes for a connection rooted in genuine care, while exploring romantic possibilities with three boys. The coming-of-age story pairs the excitement of new relationships with the complications that arise when romance does not follow a fairytale script. Its focus on friendship, expectations, and figuring out what she wants gives the volume a clear emotional and relational core.

Good fit for readers who enjoy

  • Teens and young adults interested in coming-of-age graphic novels.
  • Readers who enjoy stories about first romance, friendship, and relationship choices.
  • Fans of young adult comics centered on a protagonist navigating senior year.

Book overview

In this adorable coming-of-age comic for fans of To All the Boys I've Loved Before and Rainbow Rowell's Pumpkinheads, Sara Lin has decided now is the time: she's going to make her first kiss, something special and magical, happen.

"Sweet and engaging." --Kirkus Reviews


In this adorable coming-of-age comic for fans of To All the Boys I've Loved Before and Rainbow Rowell's Pumpkinheads, Sara Lin has decided now is the time: she's going to make her first kiss, something special and magical, happen.

It's senior year and Sara Lin just turned eighteen. She's got great friends, a cool dad (or so he thinks), and a whole lot ahead of her. The last thing she needs is to worry about having her first kiss.

But that's all about to change because her good pal Patrick just challenged her to a bet that will either lead to love, heartbreak, or embarrassment...or maybe all three.

Sara Lin understands that her first kiss is a rite of passage, one that she takes very seriously, even if everyone around her doesn't. She wants it to be special-true love's kiss-and wants to fall for someone she really cares about, not just get it over with.

Along the way, as Sara explores her relationship options with three different boys...she discovers that life isn't a fairytale and romance is inherently complex. It's messy and complicated, but boy, it sure can be fun.
