To All the Boys I've Loved Before by Jenny Han
Rating: 4.7 stars
I'm not very good at summaries, but I'll give it a go at this one :)
So Lara Jean writes letters to boys she's crushed on before, addresses them, but she never mails them out. She writes the things that made her fall in love with the boy. These letters are a way for her to release all her emotions and when she's done she places them in a hat. Until one day her letters get sent out to the boys she has written them to and things get a little crazy.
My thoughts: Have you ever found yourself in a book? Like, you realize something about yourself that you didn't know before or while reading you find an explanation for something that you believe or do? I'm not sure how much that makes sense, but it totally happened to me with this book. Other than the cuteness of this book, I really enjoyed this book because I related to the Lara Jean so well. In a way, I was practically her.
I've never read anything by Jenny Han, but I have heard good things about The Summer I Turned Pretty books. I was a little skeptical about reading this book because I bought it without really knowing what it was about and when I started reading it, I didn't know what direction the story was going to go in, but it was a fun story and it was exactly what I needed after finishing City of Heavenly Fire.
I thought that the plot line was a bit predictable and I knew what was going to end up happening, but that did not stop me from totally enjoying the story and getting all excited about cute little moments that were going on.

I loved how her family was incorporated into this book and I loved hearing from her sisters. It made made me think of me and my sisters and it was just so relatable. I also liked how Lara Jean was half Korean because it made for a more interesting story.
This book did have a few flaws and for me they were mostly character wise. Honestly, I was constantly kind of mad at Lara Jean for some things that she did and she was a bit irratating for a while and so was the main love interest, but they turned out better at the end.
This book had so many LOL's like Harry Potter references which made this book 10 times better and funnier because lets be honest, who doesn't like Harry Potter? Props to Jenny Han!

No! And how could you stop after Chamber of Secrets? The third one's the best out of the whole series...Do you not have a soul?
I love this book oh so much. It caused me to smile, giggle, and made me all giddy inside. It's definitely one of my favorite contemporaries {way up there with Anna and the French Kiss}. I can't wait for the sequel to come out in May because that ending was just ahhhhhhh!
