I loved it so muchhhhh. I loved Kitty's and Peter's friendship, and how Lara Jean's and Peter's relationship evolved, and I loved their dad, and how Margot and Lara made up in the end, and I loved Josh. It was just a really nice contemporary, and even made me cry a bit at some points..(but it's 2am right now and I am tired which means I'm extra emotional. ITS ALL GOOD FOLKS.) it really isn't that sad. But some parts made me sad. You know? Yeah...
(update)
I don't really like Josh...I guess I'm just indifferent towards from. As for Peter...I FUCKING ADORE PETER. I ship him and Lara Jean, him and Lara Jean oNLY. for those john ambrose mcclaren supporters...nope nope nope nope absolutely not

Mysig bok och lite bättre än filmen! Längtar tills jag ska läsa fortsättningen :)
I dislike Lara Jean. Pretty much everyone confuses. Except for Kitty. Han's only likable character in this book (at least for me). Although I get kilig feels on some parts, I think everything is all over the place. I just wish Han has given us character development to make up for the scatter, but no.
I absolutely devoured this book, read the last third in one night. It’s super easy to read and definitely written for teens, but the movie is one of my favorites, and I really wanted to read this series at least once. Found the books at a secondhand bookstore in Norway last year and I finally got myself to read this first part. And what can I say? I loved it. I wish I’d read this back when I was a teenager too, it totally would’ve turned into a special interest. But maybe it’s not too late for that. I’m gonna enjoy these books now too. And when I have my TATB movie marathon around Christmas I’ll love them even more as well. Yay! Also, someone get me a Peter Kavinsky please?

I enjoy this book but I can't give you insights now since I forgot some of scenes from the book.
I wasn't sure what to expect when I picked up To All the Boys I've Loved Before because I had heard only a few things about it, but mostly that it was super cute. It was one of the books I had on my Summer TBR because it fell into the cute, summer romance/contemporary type of book I really wanted to read. It took me a bit to get into it, and I am not sure why. I guess I just didn't give it much time when I first started to read it because I wasn't sure where the story was even going to go (I knew the premise, though.) But after I really got through the first few chapters, I flew through the book.
To All the Boys I've Loved Before was exactly what I was looking for. A sweet, fun, completely cheesy contemporary read with characters I would adore and a plot that was simple enough to be cliche, but unique enough to hold my attention. Lara Jean is a sweet, 16 year old girl who is really unlike any of the more popular female protagonists these days. She loves to bake, scrapbook, knit, and stay in instead of partying her weekends away. She has a close relationship with her older sister, Margot, and younger sister, Kitty, as well as her widowed dad, who is very present in the story. Their family dynamic was my favorite thing ever.
The story takes off when we find out that Lara Jean had a secret crush on her sister Margots' very recent ex-boyfriend. It's all fine though, because he wasn't supposed to find out she ever felt anything for him, but then we wouldn't have a story. As it's explained in the synopsis, Lara Jean writes love letters to boys she's had feelings for as a sort of goodbye to her feelings, which she never plans to send. The letters get sent out, of course, and when Josh finds out that Lara Jean might have feelings for him, her frantic attempts lead her to Peter K. who was also a recipient of a letter. They form a fake relationship to keep Josh away and make Peter K.'s ex-girlfriend.
Through their fake relationship though, Peter K. and Lara Jean form a sort of weird, but great, friendship. Their interactions were also my favorite thing ever because they're so fun, and quirky, and normal. They're not like many YA romances today that are mostly about attraction and have cheesy romantic confessions of love. Their interactions and conversations, and little adventures all felt like real life. Lara Jean felt real, and so did all the other characters. From her best friend Chris who we hardly see, to Margot living in Scotland, to the awesome and extremely sassy Kitty, to random secondary characters like Josh, and Genevieve and John Ambrose McClaren. They all felt like real people who I knew, and in the end when I finished this book at 2am, I wanted to hug it to sleep.
