naomi and ely's no kiss list


How different are people allowed to be in this text? Does it assume everyone is happy and good in the same ways?

Naomi and Ely's no kiss list is neither game nor joke. It shows the strong friendship Naomi and Ely have. Naomi and Ely are both strictly weird, funny, cool, edgy kids from Manhattan with a small drop of bitterness below their tongue. Naomi and Ely are fashion forward fashionista's which makes them different from every one else. But all friendships are not perfect.
       In the mixed of the no kiss list Ely has some trouble fallowing the no kiss list rules. Ely becomes a flirty twirty with all of Naomi's ex boyfriends. Being friends with Naomi is easy they grew up together and they have no excuse to date because Ely is gay. But being friends with Naomi’s ex boyfriends is not that simple. 
       Later on in the story Ely gets his feelings hurt and looses all trust from Naomi. He crosses the line. Ely was caught kissing Naomi's boyfriend in her boyfriend’s room. Naomi's boyfriend wasn’t happy with who his was with. In the end he also turned gay. But that didn’t matter to Naomi she only cared about her friend Ely and that he was happy. Naomi and Ely have to different personalities and get along with each other. Not once has Naomi ever made fun of whom Ely is. They both accept another regardless of their homosexuality or skin color.
This well-crafted novel discusses a variety of theme like love friendship letting go and acceptence. I hope Teens will appreciate this book and the happy colorful character that are strong, hip, funny and authentic. By reading this book i was left with eager to accomplish more things in life. I was also taught to be happy and accept others no matter what they believe in.
