This is a fun romantic book about the pure joy and adventure of falling in love. Perkins captures perfectly the magic behind the first everything when two people fall for each other.

My star rating:

Plot: 3/5
Pacing: 4/5
Characters: 3.5/5
World: N/A
Romance: 3.5/5

Enjoyment level: 4/5 stars

This was my least favourite in this 3-part companion series. Isla and Josh just seemed a lot more immature than Lola & Cricket and Anna & Etienne. Anna and the French kiss remains my favourite.

I thought this was a perfect reminder of what it's like to me a high school aged girl. I had the same insecurities and doubts about myself as Isla deals with. Josh's devotion was so sweet. Of course I loved the appearance from the characters in the first two novels.
