Why Isla?
Stephanie Perkins is such a fantastic writer! Since I read Anna and the French Kiss, she became one of my favorite authors. And I have a feeling that this might become one of my favorite books. After reading the three chapter except from it, I immediately connected to Isla from the awkward moments to the people -never-pronouncing-my-name-right to the shyness and not-knowing-what-to-say. I can't wait for this final book in the series. (the cameos! the romance! the swooning!)
