Upon watching the film adaptation of the first installment
of the To All The Boys I've Ever Loved Before series on Netflix, I felt it was
only fitting to read the rest of the series at my local library and take a
read.
Always and Forever, Lara Jean by Jenny Han is a typical teen love story.
It follows Lara Jean during her senior year and her boyfriend, Peter. They both
have plans to attend the University of Virginia together. However, everything
goes wrong when Peter gets accepted because of his lacrosse playing, whereas
Lara Jean was rejected. This presents a bit of a problem for our two lovers,
seeing as they had planned this all out. Will the long-distance be a problem
for Lara Jean and Peter? Read to find out!
I have never been one for the romance genre, but I have
wholeheartedly enjoyed this book series by Jenny Han. This one in particular
was well-written, filled with twists and turns, and a definite fun-read for
whenever you need an escape from your drama and wanting to delve into someone else's.
As a high school student, I personally enjoyed how Han handled the stress of
senior year and the unsettling feeling of starting college.
To be honest, this book was very light-hearted but I didn't
gain anything from it. I wouldn't read these books again but it was a very
nice, enjoyable break from the books I typically read.
I cannot wait for the film adaptation of this story! I
highly recommend you check this novel out!
