Review of 'Lola and the Boy Next Door' on 'Storygraph'

I couldn't put it down

The descriptions sound average, but Stephanie Perkins somehow manages to create characters you really love and care about, and relationship drama that you can't turn away from. Anna and St. Clair from Anna and the French kiss were featured in this book a little bit, and now even though I have no idea if any of the characters that I've grown to love will be in it I can't wait for the next book. Because I feel confident that there will be fresh characters that I will love.
