This book is amazing! I loved it so much!! It really is better than the first one.
When I started reading it, I thought it was going to be a big cliché and Peter wouldn't read the goddamn letter, but thank God I was wrong. Now I ship them a lot more and I really think they love each other.
One of the things that's made me like this second book so much is the fact that I can relate a lot to it. I myself had kind of a group like theirs when I was younger and some time ago I would do about anything to try and get it back. Just like Lara Jean. I think she was too hung up on the past and the way things used to be and that looks just like me. That's one of the things we learn as we grow older: we can't make the past our present. What's gone is gone and we have to accept it and live in the moment.
Now about Genevieve. She is a real bitch. It doesn't matter what Lara Jean did or the crap she is going through at home or whatever, what she did to Lara Jean was so wrong. They were best friends once, for God sake! She had no right to do what she did. I don't think I could ever do what she did. If I were her, I guess I would be upset too, but what she did was too much. And I don't care that Peter liked to be needed or felt responsible for Genevieve. He should always put Lara Jean above it all, not matter what.
John's a cutie, but I still prefer Peter. I guess it's like bad boy vs good boy and the bad boy always wins. But John is great and I kind of feel bad for him.
In the end, I guess that what makes me more sad about this book is Josh. It's like he never existed. He was pretty much erased of their lives and that's really sad and depressing. I just wish he and Margot could go back together.
I liked the end, though. I just think it was too short. Things were alright for so little time...
So, awesome book. Completely in love!!

God..... this one was so much more annoying than the first one. Lara Jean and Peter were super pretentious and even for teens megahypersuper stupid. Most of the scenes went from kind of cute to super cringy.

Oookay!!!!!! Finished part 2 :D!!!! My thoughts - pretty similar as the first one to be quite honest.. HOWEVER - there are things I absolutely LOVED and things I disliked A LOT. First the negative lol - I did not enjoy how much Lara Jean was upset about the whole making out at the bath thing video. At first it was absolutely reasonable! But I personally found that she was upsed about it for too long. No one could really do anything about it and they weren't even having sex as the desc said. It was blurry so it could've been anyone. And last, doing the devil's tango really isn't a big deal lol.
Anywho.
The part I loved - John Something McSomething

"I could fall in love with you so easily,” I whisper. “I’m halfway there already.” His Adam’s apple bobs in his throat. “You’re so perfect in my memory, and you’re perfect now. It’s like I dreamed you into being. Of all the boys, you’re the one I would pick.”
“But?”
“But . . . I still love Peter. I can’t help it. He got here first and he . . . he just won’t leave.”
He sighs a defeated kind of sigh that hurts my heart. “Goddamn it, Kavinsky.”
“I’m sorry. I like you, too, John, I really do. I wish . . . I wish we got to go to that eighth grade formal.”
,,,,,,,,,,just freaking murder me already
