To All the Boys I’ve Loved Before is the story of Lara Jean, who has never openly admitted her crushes, but instead wrote each boy a letter about how she felt, sealed it, and hid it in a box under her bed. But one day Lara Jean discovers that somehow her secret box of letters has been mailed, causing all her crushes from her past to confront her about the letters: her first kiss, the boy from summer camp, even her sister's ex-boyfriend, Josh. As she learns to deal with her past loves face to face, Lara Jean discovers that something good may come out of these letters after all.

RATING:


THOUGHTS:
There is a good thing and a bad thing about this book. The good thing is that the plot doesn't only focus on the quirky, young love story but also the strong bond between family members especially the Song sisters. The bad thing is that I still have to wait for a year to swoon over Peter Kavinsky in the second book.

You can't leave us hanging like that for too long, Miss Jenny Han. I demand for a kick-ass ending! LOL

FAVE QUOTES:
“When someone's been gone a long time, at first you save up all the things you want to tell them. You try to keep track of everything in your head. But it's like trying to hold on to a fistful of sand: all the little bits slip out of your hands, and then you're just clutching air and grit.”

“You'd rather make up a fantasy version of somebody in your head than be with a real person.”

“I don’t have to be so afraid of good-bye, because good-bye doesn’t have to be forever.”
