The Kiss Bet, Vol. 4

In this adorable coming-of-age comic for fans of This One Summer by Mariko Tamaki and Jillian Tamaki and Rainbow Rowell’s Pumpkinheads, Sara Lin has decided now is the time: she’s going to make her first kiss, something special and magical, happen.

It’s senior year and Sara Lin just turned eighteen. She’s got great friends, a cool dad (or so he thinks), and a whole lot ahead of her. The last thing she needs to worry about is her first kiss. 

But that’s all about to change because her good pal Patrick just challenged her to a bet that will either lead to love, heartbreak, or embarrassment . . . or maybe all three. Along the way, as Sara explores her relationship options with three different boys, she discovers life isn’t a fairytale and romance is inherently complex. It’s messy and complicated, but boy, it sure can be fun.

Balancing new connections and confusing romantic feelings, Sara Lin begins to question where her heart truly lies. Turning a friendship into a relationship is fun in theory, but sometimes it’s hard to draw the line between the two.

This volume collects episodes 57 to 82 of the charming WEBTOON comic The Kiss Bet.
