Seriously, Stephanie Perkins's books keep getting better. I thought that "Lola and the Boy Next Door" was the one. But I was wrong. Because "Isla and the Happily Ever After" is.
It was SO FREAKING GOOD. The best of the three (the first one being "Anna and the French Kiss").
Set back in Paris. But also New York. (unfortunately no London, boo). So much love, so much fluff, so much happily ever after (so much, so much!!).
["Love ignites in the City That Never Sleeps, but can it last?
Hopeless romantic Isla has had a crush on introspective cartoonist Josh since their first year at the School of America in Paris. And after a chance encounter in Manhattan over the summer, romance might be closer than Isla imagined. But as they begin their senior year back in France, Isla and Josh are forced to confront the challenges every young couple must face, including family drama, uncertainty about their college futures, and the very real possibility of being apart.
Featuring cameos from fan-favorites Anna, Étienne, Lola, and Cricket, this sweet and sexy story of true love—set against the stunning backdrops of New York City, Paris, and Barcelona—is a swoonworthy conclusion to Stephanie Perkins’s beloved series."]
This is more of the romance novel formula that I was missing the past couple of books. Getting together in the beginning, lots of kisses, lots of shared experiences, a major (or few major) conflicts that break things apart, and a happily ever after.
I'm like cranking through my TBR piles right now. Go me. :)

I love, love, love reading about love. That is what I do best. Reading and writing about people falling in love... Here I will post reviews on books about love, about romance, about LGBTQIA. Sometimes there will be full-length, publish-worthy reviews. Sometimes the posts will be slightly this side of a literary rant. If you have any recommendations for me, please, reach out.
