Really deserves 3.5 stars. Compulsively readable but the main characters choices throughout the book drove me batty.

This continues to be an entertaining and adorable series. I love the international school setting and the fact that Isla speaks 3 languages. I did not like how the book started, and was annoyed by Isla in the beginning, but I eventually grew to like her more. I really enjoyed how the main characters from all 3 books came together in the end, and appreciated the ending of Calliope Bell's story that was added in as well.

Wow. This series definitely ended on a sourer note than I would've wished. In some ways I liked this one better than Lola, but in others it was so much worse. I was so flipping bored while reading this; I had to actively force myself to continue it, and by the last few pages I just started skimming. The thing is though, Isla and Josh were a better and more interesting couple than Lola and Cricket could ever dream to be, so it just makes this all the more upsetting. I think the biggest flaw was definitely having Isla and Josh get together and 'fall in love' so early on; it felt way to fast and completely unreal, and it made the rest of the book feel lacking. I'm also not a fan of how Isla behaved, and treated Josh during Christmas either. It was so much bullshit, and I just did not feel sorry for her at all. In fact I actively wanted to slap her and tell how stupid she was being. The only truly enjoyable part of this whole experience was getting to see Anna and Etienne get their happily ever after, it actually made me tear up a bit.

As I finish this I want to immediately pick up ANNA and read that again to take me back to the start.

It's hard because it's been so long since I read the other books, but I think Isla and Josh's relationship is my favourite. Or I think I would pick Josh out of all three boys because ::swoon::

I don't know why it took me so long to read this when I have been wanting to read it for so long, but I am so happy that I finally have. It was all I wanted it to be! Everyone gets their happily ever after ::big love heart in my eyes::

I loved this book, just about as much as i loved Anna and the French Kiss. It was amazing. Filled with drama and sadness and excitement. I am not sure which one I liked best out of all three of the books :)

Sakra, já se asi rozpustím.
Původně jsem přemýšlela nad čtyřmi, ale když se tam objevili Étienne, Anna, Lola i Cricket a došlo k té úžasné scéně, nejde jinak. A dost mě mrzí, že už nebude pokračování.
