Isla and the Happily Ever After by Stephanie Perkins
5.0
When I first got the book, I read everyone saying how it was the least good (if not to say the worst) one of the three.
So I read not expecting much and I am happy to say that I was surprised. In the best way possible.
I now think that it is the best one by far because we get to experience part of the relationship we didn't get to see in the first two ones although we did see Anna and Étienne along with the story of Lola and Cricket, we actually didn't get to see any tough times they might have had.
Then I also really really liked Josh in the first book. I thought his character was amazing and I was kinda sad to learn he would be left behing when they all graduated. Then we also had met Isla during the first book and I liked how she stood up to Amanda when Anna punched her. She actually helped Anna escape detention or whatever she might have been facing. And even in that little cameo she did we already found out she was madly in love with Josh.
Therefore the book started on a good base. Then I loved how they got together and how they lived with each other their oh-so-cute love story. And even when it got tough, they still managed to stay together. I am gonna stop right here on their relationship because I don't want to spoil it for anyone who'll like to read it.
Plus the book goes back in Paris in SOAP where we met the all gang along with Anna.
Anyway, just as in Lola and the Boy Next Door, we get to see some old faces back. Anna and Étienne of course, but also Lola and Cricket and last but not least Meredith, who we can all relate to because who hasn't seen the boy you love falling in love with some other girl (even harder when she is one of your friends).
And the way it ends is just perfect.
I wish it had been longer though. But we don't always get what we want.
So I would definitely recommand this book for everyone who loved the first two ones.
I give it 5 stars but if I could I'd give it more. :)
