*THIS SYNOPSIS CONTAINS SPOILERS FOR THE FIRST BOOK IN THE SERIES*

Lara Jean didn’t expect to really fall for Peter.
She and Peter were just pretending. Except suddenly they weren’t. Now Lara Jean is more confused than ever.
When another boy from her past returns to her life, Lara Jean’s feelings for him return too. Can a girl be in love with two boys at once?

In this charming and heartfelt sequel to the New York Times bestseller To All the Boys I've Loved Before, we see first love through the eyes of the unforgettable Lara Jean. Love is never easy, but maybe that’s part of what makes it so amazing.

I borrowed this book from the library, this does not influence my thoughts on the book or my review.

While I didn’t love To All the Boys I’ve Loved Before, the novel ended with me wanting to read the sequel so I borrowed it from the library and decided to give it a go. However, I was slightly disappointed.

I expected an awesomely cute story now that the angst of the first novel love triangle was out of the way but instead, I got more angst. There was another love triangle in this novel, and the dynamic between Peter and Lara Jean was definitely more rocky and I found myself doubting their relationship (which is not what I wanted to do).

But ultimately, To All the Boys I’ve Loved Before was a good sequel that had ended the series in a nice and sweet way but the angst along the way was too much for me.

  1. I still haven’t read the first book, because of the love triangle. I can deal if I am caught off guard by one, but if I know beforehand, I tend to take my time about reading the book.

  2. I finished this book today, I really liked how Han handled the love triangle situation. It just seemed so realistic to me because there was a point in my life when I was conflicted over two different guys. It just worked, although I was a little sad for the one she didn’t choose. :'( He can be my book boyfriend. lol

    I also really liked the Gen situation. Again, very realistic. I couldn’t really argue with it because that really does happen.
