Reviews with content warning for Death - Pour toujours et à jamais Lara Jean

It was sad and exciting to wrap up Lara Jean’s story. This book kind of sped through her senior year and left out some details of her story to speed it up even more, like no details on her trip to Korea. But, in general the theme of how will she handle her future is a good one. I was proud to watch Lara Jean make choices for herself and find more of herself along the way. One of my favorite parts in the book is her road trip to UNC with Chris. I would def recommend this series to a love of YA romcom type of books, same with the movies.

It's her senior year, and Lara Jean has so much to look forward to - a class trip, graduation, prom, beach week, and her father's wedding. Everything is going according to plan, until she gets some unexpected news that will force her to rethink her plans.

I enjoyed being back in Lara's world, and this was a quick and easy read. Unfortunately, it didn't have much substance and contained a lot of fluff. I appreciated the baking aspect, as well as the references to Anne of Green Gables. The writing is somewhat juvenile, which contributes to the lighthearted nature of the entire trilogy.

I still loved Kitty's character, and I would definitely pick up a book written from her perspective. I also enjoyed getting a glimpse into the relationship between Mrs. Rothschild and each of the three Song girls, and how each evolved.

At the end of the day, this was a decent wrap up and the trilogy was definitely fun, but nothing earth shattering.

I think that this book was the worst in the series. That being said, it wasn't horrible. As a current high schooler myself, it was really weird to witness a person who was younger than me at the beginning of the first book grow up so fast! I think that the thing I hated most in the book was its focus on sex. It defined most relationships through that lens, and it made even me feel that maybe my relationships weren't any good because of the way things were phrased. Throughout the novel, Lara Jean is very annoying. I'm so sad that I have to say that, but it's the truth. She defines so much of herself with Peter, and it made me mad. However, what I love about these books is the relationship between the sisters. I have never felt as close to my sister as Kitty, Margot, and Lara Jean are, but the way that the Song sisters are I really hope that one day I too will reach a point, especially because in a few years I will be off to college.
