I just loved this book, but I think that my favorite in this series is Anna. Loved the way we see Josh this time, I wonder if I re read Anna would I see Josh and Rashmi differently?
I must admit it made me cry, Stephanie really knows how to write romantic, tender and magical endings to her stories. So, Stephanie... Where's the next book? Because I love everything you write!

First of all...
These two stars are me being generous.
Now, short review:
I hated it. It started off okay but then there was a whole lot of insta love and then boom! they in love.
The rest of the book just dissolved into overdramaticness, srying, panicking, being stupid and then it ended.
Thank fuck.
And, in the end,
Honestly, I don't understand what happened to Stephanie. Book 1 was good, book 2 was okay, what happened with this one?
Very disappointed...

It made me laugh, it made me cry, and it made me want to mail something. This statement is some of the highest praise I can give a book. I felt that way about Anna & Lola, and I'm glad Isla followed suit.

The story is back in Paris, the school for Americans. Our adventure begins with one red headed short girl, Isla, who is high on medication from having her wisdom teeth removed. She walks into a cafe only to see her crush for the last 3 years sitting in a booth. Her drugged mind finds the courage to talk to him, flirt and make him laugh. This is the beginning of a sweet, hot and heartbreaking romance.
Isla is shy, set in her life style and a bit insecure. She has issues about her body's height challenge and wears high heels even if it makes her feet hurt. She loves with her whole being, but she also fears with her whole heart. This fear, and her giving into it will break your heart.
Josh is the man of her dreams. He was the one she watched love another girl in their circle at school. He is an artist with a reputation of not living by the rules of the school. He gets in trouble, spends a lot of time in detention and seems aloof. He has many little secrets, and some issues of his own to grow through. He is also deeply romantic.
Together these two slowly develop their story. It is paced maidenly slow sometimes and too fast at others. Life steps in and their path is disrupted. He opens his soul to her and the magic happens. There is no violence, no disrespect, no abuse, no typically written High School rudeness. This is a good story/series that needs none of the shock gimmicks to hold it up. They all end in a HEA, and this one was even more deserved than the others IMHO.

Una vez más he quedado enamorada de la pluma de la autora y de su capacidad de crear historias románticas. En este libro conocemos a Isla y a Josh quienes en un principio no me agradaron mucho pero al ir avanzando la historia me iban gustando.
Es súper enganchante, a través de las descripciones que nos da Perkins vamos conociendo diferentes partes del mundo como son New York, Paris y Barcelona.
Esta trilogía me gustó muchísimo, peor debo reconocer que hay algunas cosas que no me agradaron como que considero que la relación que hay entre los protagonistas no me terminó de convencer. Además, de que cuando la relación se ellos comenzó, Isla no le prestó atención a su mejor amigo que es Kurt.
3,5/5⭐️

I'm probably going to be the only person that is going to rate this how many stars that I did.
I had HIGH expectations for this book since I LOVED Anna & Lola. After reading about 5 chapters into this book I thought Isla was super odd and annoying. She was kind of creepy the way she was acting about Josh and I felt like their relationship was pushed and it didn't flow naturally. Overall I just felt like their relationship was too lovely dovey and that drove me kind of nuts, I just didn't feel the same way when I read Anna.
I did however like how St. Clair, Anna, Lola and Cricket were in this story. I didn't even realize but I think Josh and Isla were both in Anna and the french kiss.
I am disappointed to see this "series" end because I really enjoyed it.

Yet another book I fell in love with. I don't really know what to say about this book, because it was just SO DAMN GOOD!
This story about Isla and Josh is really, really cute. It only happens on books, though. What are the chances of being your crush's crush? Yep... Anyways, their relationship is adorable. They've never loved someone so much and that's pretty obvious. It's so not like Josh and Rashmi's relationship. They were always fighting and they were together just because they didn't want to be alone. Josh and Isla are completely different. Even so, there's a lot of crap in the way of their happiness, but they are able to move past it, thank God.
It was great reading about Anna, St. Clair, Meredith, Lola and Cricket again. AND THAT PROPOSAL, OH MY GOD, SO FREAKING CUTE!!!
This story is beautiful, honestly. It's one of the most beautiful books I've ever read and I read a lot of them! This is a dream story and I loved it very much.
