What’s Up with Jason and Kyra?
By: Maci Johnson
In a story about love-stricken teenagers, author Dana Davidson takes her readers on a rollercoaster of emotions in her book "Jason & Kyra." The book details the love story of handsome, basketball star, Jason Vincent falling for his smart and shy classmate, Kyra Evans. Jason is a part of Cross High’s elite social scene, while Kyra’s idea of fun is working on her sickle cell research experiment.
The only things the two have in common are their English 3 class…and their newfound love for one another. Many of their peers are confused on why the two are together, which causes small riffs amongst the couple. Will the pair let scandalous whispers and confused stares break up their relationship? Or will they persevere against all odds?
I believe Dana Davidson is MORE than qualified to write this novel. The author is most recognized for her fiction novels centered on teenaged love. In her last fiction novel "Played," Davidson wrote about another teenaged couple that attended the same high school as the characters in "Jason & Kyra."
Her writing style is easygoing and relaxed. Since her audience is targeted to a younger crowd, she is careful of staying away from racy topics and lofty euphemisms. The book is about love in its most simplistic and refreshing state.
I HIGHLY recommend this book. I’ve read it hundreds of times, and I love it more than ever. Davidson's style is amazing, and it is nice to read about requited love without sex or gore. Bravo, Dana Davidson! (Now let’s get a sequel!!)
