Series: Anna and the French Kiss #3
From the glittering streets of Manhattan to the moonlit rooftops of Paris, falling in love is easy for hopeless dreamer Isla and introspective artist Josh.This book is finally on sale today! *party time*
But as they begin their senior year in France, Isla and Josh are quickly forced to confront the heartbreaking reality that happily-ever-afters aren’t always forever.
Their romantic journey is skillfully intertwined with those of beloved couples Anna and Étienne and Lola and Cricket, whose paths are destined to collide in a sweeping finale certain to please fans old and new.
This was one of my most anticipated books of the year, and I was so lucky to be able to read an early copy thanks to Penguin! Stephanie Perkins is such a fun and lovely writer and I will continue to always pick up her books in the future!
As you've already seen, I gave this book 5/5 stars just like I gave Lola and Anna! While this book did contain super cute parts just like in the first two that made you squeal and giggle, I will say that it had a lot less of that than the others. Just so you know. Just so you're warned.
To me this romance seemed a lot more realistic. It also seemed more adult than the others... A few of you will agree with me and a few of you are going to shake your heads and yell, "what?! It was instalove!" I disagree. I loved that Stephanie showed what can happen to two teens in love once they are FINALLY together. We got to actually see them go through problems together.
Now, to be honest I would much rather read a sweet and happy book about two adorable people falling in love, like in like Anna and Lola, instead of two people arguing and come close to falling out of it. But I can appreciate both types of stories.
While I would say that Isla is my least favorite of the three, I LOVED what happened when the whole group met up! It was perfect!
I definitely recommend this book if you love contemporary books, and ESPECIALLY if you have already read the first two!
What did you all think of the book?! What's your favorite of the three?
