Laguna Cove by Allyson Noel

Anne is a city girl moving to a laid back west coast area. She's left her friends and her boyfriend, to move to Laguna Beach to live with her dad. At first she doesn't fit in and she doesn't know why but she meets some girls that help her through it, and her dad's paid male helper also gives her some tips while pushing her to try surfing. Finally Anne gives in and she finds that Surfing is really what pulls people together on the West Coast.

I really didn't think I was going to like this book because I don't really like the types of books that are about snobby rich girls in mini skirts and driving BMW's. This book has a way different angle on their life style and it shows them as human beings and not rich witches. I really enjoyed Laguna Cove and I would recommend it to any girl who was interested in a book about a girl moving away from her comfort zone.
