Super cute! Just as adorable as Anna and the French Kiss. It was the perfect lighthearted HEA that I needed to read right now!!
I loved this book. Sometimes the characters started to annoy me, but then I thought back to when I was a teenager and yeah… I was also illogical and annoying.
This book finished the series in such a great way. It was able to give satisfying conclusions for each couple from the prior books.
I really love Stephanie Perkins YA romance novels. I am a stan. That is all ❤️

I adored this book. Loved seeing old friends. Loved meeting new ones.
Can't believe it took me this long to read Isla!! I missed Stephanie Perkins' words <3 It was fun that there were three different settings in this book as well, and I felt like I was dropped in the middle of each one. So many sensory details! I did find the romance kinda cheesy at times, and fast, but in the end I love Josh and Isla together- they bring out the best in each other and had so many cute moments. I loved the cameos at the end too!
This book follows Isla and her love interest Josh, who she has a crush on then apparently love for three years. needless to say she is head over heels with the guy! Their story started sweet, innocent and really funny mostly because of Isla's reaction.They started dating and such and it's sweet and well very relatable, romantic that sometimes borders on cheesy but it's okay. It irks me though that by the end Isla became whiny, pathetic and annoying then Josh became too emo. Those were the only parts I did not love but they are neccessary to the story, I guess, though Isla's self-pity could've been reined in a bit.
Now about those last few chapters. I WAS FLOORED!! Etiénne St. Clair's proposal to Anna!! That was beautiful. I was practically making weird noises because of it!! I love that so much!! Then when I thought it couldn't get better,Josh's graphic memoir he gave Isla, how he drew the ending, where he was waiting by Isla's window when I real life he was really there waiting for her. Then she saw him and runs out to him (Yep that cheesy part I love epicly) like in his drawings!!! Oh the heavenly feels!!
So overall the story and plot was very good. It's not at par with Anna and the French Kiss but definitely a good read (See what I did there?!

Um... okay, I think I need to go back and re-rate Anna and the French Kiss. Compared to Lola and Isla, Anna is not a 5 star book for me. How is it that Anna is the one everybody always talks about? Isla and the Happily Ever After gave me all the happy tingles. You know the ones. Such a sweet book and I really loved seeing Josh from a different light.

I really liked Isla and her personality. She was such a nice person. The problem I had with this book was that it was too cliche. I just found it unrealistic. Her crush for 3 years, Josh, ends up liking her and they fall in love in less than a month. I think it all happened a little too fast. I still liked the book but I had higher expectations.
If you like love stories that have an obvious ending than I would recommend this book. It still told a very cute story and I love how Stephanie Perkin's companion novels came together. This was still a fun book to read.
