The book just got to me (emotionally) and I want more of these types of books. I'll find more books by Stephanie Perkins (I'm not a stalker I swear 😂). Go read Anna and the French Kiss first then Lola and the Boy Next Door then this book if you want to understand this book. 😊 okay I'm done. Bye. 🙈

This book is the most amazing thing I've ever read. It's like a work of art, it is perfect in every way. I have never cried in so many emotions, I could not put it down. ❤😭

This is my favorite Stephanie Perkins book because I can relate so much to Isla. Josh also reminds me of my boyfriend--always drawing, always hiding how smart he really is. Their romantic love story set with Perkins' imagery of Paris, Spain, and New York makes me read this over and over again.
