This trilogy will always hold a special spot in my heart. I'm happy at how this chapter of the story closed and I'm glad to leave everything just as they are.

Much better than the second book.
Again I really don’t like kitty. I now get some understanding why because of one conversation about it in the book, but I still don’t like how self centered she is. Like the only feelings that are important is hers.
Yeah well, good she isn’t in this book that much as the other books.
I liked the college part in the book and the anticipation you get.
The wedding was close to being too much for me, but she did a good job not overshadowing the teenage life with a wedding.

I couldn't have asked for a better ending. Every time I read the last few pages I cry. I am super emotional, but I don't get that attached to characters like this. I love this series so much. I couldn't recommend just sitting down and reading all three back-to-back enough.

3.5 stars. A good conclusion to a fun series, and one that wrapped things up in a really lovely way. It's been nice to see Lara Jean grow into herself over the course of the series, and I felt excited for this new chapter of her life to begin as the book ended, which is always a good sign!
I agree with my friend Amy's review — I love Hamilton a lot, but there were definitely a LOT of Hamilton references in this book, and (as Amy said in her review) Hamilton isn't at the Harry Potter-esque level of "cultural saturation" where the references would feel normal. The series overall makes a lot of pop-culture references, but to lean SO HARD into Hamilton was kind of an interesting choice. IN A WAY I get it — the book was written during the musical's Extreme Heyday, and I definitely am as "into" the musical as the Song girls are. But it felt a LITTLE forced?
ASIDE FROM THAT, this book was enjoyable and the series was very sweet.

I still have 100 page till the end of the book however I think these one hundred pages will not change my opinion about this book. So I am giving this book 4/5. I really loved how the characters grow in this book. The development of the characters is not that huge but it was fairly fine. As High school about to end and Lara Jean’s new journey about to beginning, you will witness the characters making decisions and choose for what they want.
I still cannot help but hate Margot. Her character was the worst I had ever came across. Kitty is just smart kid, cool may I say but she could be a little nice. Nevertheless it’s fine since this is how she is. For Lara Jean, at first I was partially annoyed with her. She was giving off a controlling vibe that everything has to go on her own way, her mind was so close to what she wants, to the plans she put for herself until it all changed and she became less annoying.
Maybe it’s because I just loved the first book so much or loved the movie much better. If I read this book when I was younger maybe I would have incredibly loved it.
Sad thing though, it didn’t give me butterflies. LJ and Peter’s relationship becomes kinda plain. This book felt more like I am reading a diary of someone who has been busy with some events of their lives.
As dad says “A relaxing book you could read before going to bed.” That’s what it was for me.
