What people are saying about Kristin's novels:

Quote of the week:
On THE ART OF FRENCH KISSING:
"Ms. Harmel has done a great job of making so many of her characters likeable, especially the main character Emma. . . . I loved how she 'found' herself in this amazing city. . . . Although I would consider this book to be about finding Monsieur Right, it was a lot more than that too. In the "About the Author" section at the end of the book, Ms. Harmel has wonderful advice for the reader, 'You don't need to go to Paris like Emma and me to become a better version of you. You simply need to open your mind, to step out of your comfort zone, and to believe you can do anything you set your mind to.' I think that pretty much sums up what this book was really about!" -- Julie Peterson on the web site Booking Mama.

On WHEN YOU WISH:
"I highly recommend When You Wish for young adult readers....Not-so-young adults shouldn't overlook this novel, though! When You Wish is a very heartening, feel-good story that pulls you into Star's gravity with a great cast of characters and a story that keeps you turning page after page. Go pick up a copy and read a story that will have you smiling when it's finished - we all deserve great reads like this!
." -- BostonNow
