Virgin

I was a little leery of this book - I'm a 44 year old woman, and don't have a lot of interest in a story about someone losing their virginity.  I received an advanced copy from NetGalley in exchange for an honest review, and it was definitely not something I would have sought out on my own.  But I was pleasantly surprised - this book felt Bridget Jones-eque, which is one of my favorites
The story was completely focused on sex, but somehow it never felt lascivious or skeevy - it was surprisingly funny and you definitely rooted for the main character.
I never really bought into her love interest, Jack.  The description of him never really matched - was he a political activist? Was he attractive?  At different times, it seemed like he was different things.  And do liberal guys actually judge a girl by her pubic hair?  According to this book - everyone does!
But overall, it was a cute, fast chicklit read.  I enjoyed it and would read this author again.
