Much internalised misogyny and slut shaming in the female main character, brief Harry Potter references in the halloween chapter but they are part of the Asian mc‘s point of „there are only 2-3 costumes she can do without getting mistaken for a random manga character“zoepagereader's review

I loved the movie of this for a few years now, so naturally, I was looking forward to the book. But I was shockingly disappointed. Instead of having a strong and fun relationship with her best friend, the friend is always getting drunk and going to parties and bossing around Lara Jean. And no, it’s not one a plot point of the book. And Peter is such a stereotypical jock it was hard to read a lot of us. And I’m sorry, but one cannot go through a intense personal argument with their boyfriend, fake or real, for a full page and then, while the fight’s still going, “be all oooh you’re so cute when you’re at the beck and call of your ex”. 2.75⭐️
