Isla and the Happily ever after: Spoiler Review: This book was so good and a great end to this unique series. I loved seeing Josh and Isla again and how they wound up in each other orbits. This book was again different because even though they always liked each other they were together for like a month before the life or the book bough the drama. I liked the fact that for most of this book Isla was lost with nothing to motivate her toward the future and no really clue about what she wanted. That I think is one of the reasons she grew so obsessed with josh because she had nothing else to capitative her. This characters like all the others are can be a prefect pairs but they need to fix the cracks first and that is what the whole second part of this book was about and I love that. I loved seeing Isla try and find her happily ever after and then realize Josh can still have a place in that and that is message all girls can take home. The one thing I would have loved more was to see more of the past characters but I know this is isla and Josh book but the few scenes we got made me so happy. The news about the engagement made me gasp and the gold metal win was awesome! Such a strong book with real characters and real issues! I also loved seeing paris and barcalona again and learning more about various cultures. I also liked finally seeing and learning about Josh comic and what it became at the end!

Here is my video review http://youtu.be/AsngVdbW8UU Just So You Know: You DO NOT have to read the other books in the series to enjoy this book!! The thing I love about reading Stephanie Perkins books is that I can get lost and engrossed in the atmosphere and the feelings. I read Anna and Lola, so I was really looking forward (and waiting a looooong time) to read this book. I didn't remember Isla (or Josh that much) from [b:Anna and the French Kiss|6936382|Anna and the French Kiss (Anna and the French Kiss, #1)|Stephanie Perkins|https://d.gr-assets.com/books/1358271931s/6936382.jpg|7168450]. I have to admit when I was reading that book, all I cared about was St. Clair and Anna. The other characters didn't exactly stick with me. And it was a long time ago that I read it, so that could be another reason. This book though.... it's not really ABOUT much. Somehow the author managed to write a book about nothing else besides a teenage relationship and make it not at all boring or annoying. I'm not sure how she does it. But the feelings and romance sucked me in. The book is set in Paris and New York... and Barcelona a little bit. Isla and Josh are falling in love in all 3 cities and it was SO cute and romantic. I feel like all of the different atmospheres ended up playing a role in their romance, and I loved that. Isla is so unsure of herself and her goals, whereas Josh is a serious artist and knows that's what he's going to do for the rest of his life. He suggests she apply to Dartmouth, a college she'd never even heard of, so that she could be close to him after high school. That's sort of where her doubts start creeping in. She doesn't want to be this blank piece of paper that follows a guy around. She wants to have a purpose and she can't understand how anyone would want to be with someone who doesn't have one. She also doesn't think that Josh could truly love her without her being a fully established person. My favorite part of this book was definitely Isla's wity and cute sense of humor. She always had great timing with the things she said. It made me wish I could be more like that. I also really liked the relationship that she had with her best friend, Kurt, and her sisters. If you were a fan of Anna and the French Kiss and/or Lola and the Boy Next Door, you won't be disappointed by this. It holds that same chemistry and magic that those books do, same cute boy/girl interactions. Same overall feeling that to me is warm and magical. And bonus- appearances by Cricket, Lola, St. Clair, Anna, Meredith, and Calliope (sort of). OVERALL: Yes to this final book in the series!! I loved going back to the American School in Paris and I loved falling in love with Isla and Josh. Stephanie Perkins is definitely a go-to for YA Contemporary Romance. This book was full of life, warmth, and a journey of one girl to find herself. I recommend to ALL!!! My Blog: I was honestly sooo looking forward to reading this book after I finished Lola and the Boy Next Door last year, but in the end I was just really disappointed? I don't know, I guess I was expecting way more since there was quite a lot of hype around this book. I am not saying the book was bad, because there were parts I enjoyed but I couldn't really get into the book, and also found Isla a bit annoying here and there. nessuna recensione | aggiungi una recensione

This again has a sweet teen romance (with a few racier sex scenes than the other book) and another glimpse into Paris and Barcelona.
I'm saying it wasn't as good but I also read this one in a day or two so, you know, it's still good.
I also have to say that while I was rooting for Isla and Josh the adult in me was horrified by many of their decisions and annoyed by some of the other things we learned about Anna & St. Clair. I know these books are fantasy ideals but still seems like a crazy message to send about young kids.
