You guys! I can hardly believe we’re on week six of the #ReadISLA campaign. Do you know what this means?!?! Isla and the Happily Ever After comes out in less than two weeks!!!!!!! Ahhhhhhhhhhh! Cue all of the excitement! I simply cannot wait for you all to read it. No joke… I’ve read the whole thing twice already (and certain parts more times than I care to admit!!) It is so worth the wait and I am super hyped to get to fangirl about it with more people! But you don’t have to take my word for it…. check out what others are saying about Stephanie Perkins latest:

“Stephanie Perkins is the Jane Austen of our generation. Her stories ache, soothe, and leave you breathless with joy; there’s true magic in these pages — it’s an experience you won’t soon forget.”
–Tahereh Mafi, author of the bestselling Shatter Me series.
“Stephanie Perkins’s characters fall in love the way we all want to, in real time and for good.”
Rainbow Rowell, award-winning, bestselling author of Eleanor & Park and Fangirl
“This adorable YA romance is half New York love story, half Parisian romance, and fully prepared to make your heart melt quicker than a gelato dropped on a sidewalk. “
 –MTV.com
“Fans will relish appearances by characters from Perkins’s Anna and the French Kiss (2011) and Lola and the Boy Next Door (2013, both Dutton) in this sweet, charming series third that will make readers feel like they’re in Paris too. Realistic characters, spot-on dialogue, and a truly delightful romance make for a novel that will delight the author’s fans and win her legions of new one.”—School Library Journal,starred review
“Engaging teen characters with page-turning love lives offer ample vicarious pleasures…A satisfying dose of first love’s physical and emotional thrall.” –Kirkus Reviews
“If you’ve read Anna and the French Kiss and Lola and the Boy Next Door, you know that Stephanie Perkins is both a talented writer and a true romantic…And if you haven’t? You’re still in for an unforgettably romantic journey in this love story that stands on its own…It’s hard to imagine a more romantic tale than Isla and the Happily Ever After. With evocative settings like Paris, Manhattan and Barcelona, Perkins’ latest will leave readers swooning, sobbing—and rooting for Isla and Josh to write their own happy ending.” – Book Page
