To All The Boys I’ve Loved Before

To All The Boys I’ve Loved Before. The first I knew that a book of this name existed was thanks to the bookstagrammers I follow on instagram.

This one on the left is the bookcover that I first saw. I added the book to my TBR because I liked the cover.

Yes, I add books to my TBR just on the basis of their covers.

Well… let’s get to the point.

I added the book to my TBR but seeing that it is a huge list, I have not yet read the book or the two that followed.

Very recently, I found out that there was a Netflix original movie for this book and now that I already knew the synopsis, I wanted to watch it.

But, being a book person, it was a hard to choice to opt for a movie when i had not read the book yet. Yet, I went ahead and watched the movie lat night.

And oh boy! How much I loved it!

This is one of my favourite stills.

There were so many aww moments in the innocent love that the romantic in me was bubbling with happiness and excitement.

Let’s talk in bullet points here?

• I guess everyone has, at some point of their life experienced unrequited love, so it was pretty easy to understand what Lara Jean had gone through which gave the entire story a perspective that was grounded in reality.
• Writing letters that you vow never to send out? That is me. I do that. That made the story a little more personal for me. That translates into, I was totally into the story.
• Pretend relationship to real relationships is one of my all time favourite romance tropes and I cherished at those moments that Lara Jean and Peter had throughout their journey. I could see my younger self doing what LJ did.
• Lana Condor’s and Noah Centineo’s acting portrays the excitement of finding love and being confused by the feelings at the same time. It was adorable to watch them rediscover themselves.

A definite must watch even when the book reviews of the book are not that great.
