Another basic book where the female main character clearly hates other women and has a lot of internalised misogyny. Uses a lot of “not that kind of girl” type statements and slut shaming. The main love interest, Peter, is unbearable especially SPOILERS——————————
when he literally cheats and lies to her with his EX GIRLFRIEND. And she forgives him still. She just seems very much a pushover and has no depth which is disappointing coming from a female author.

This rating is pretty biased because the last book I read was literally crap. I enjoyed this book. It was good. I didn’t love the ending, but it is what it is. All in all kinda meh-but if it was a rainy day and I was looking for a book to just kinda glaze through-I would choose this one.
Boom.
Boom.

I loved the movie of this for a few years now, so naturally, I was looking forward to the book. But I was shockingly disappointed. Instead of having a strong and fun relationship with her best friend, the friend is always getting drunk and going to parties and bossing around Lara Jean. And no, it’s not one a plot point of the book. And Peter is such a stereotypical jock it was hard to read a lot of us. And I’m sorry, but one cannot go through a intense personal argument with their boyfriend, fake or real, for a full page and then, while the fight’s still going, “be all oooh you’re so cute when you’re at the beck and call of your ex”. 2.75⭐️
