Actual rating: 3.5*. Because I liked it better than the first book, but not quite as much as the other books I've given 4 stars in the past. 
 The times I liked a second book better than a first one can be counted on the fingers of one hand, I think, but this is one of those times. Perhaps it is because I already knew Lara Jean, Peter, Kitty, and all the other characters before I started reading this book or perhaps it's because I can see the way they grew since the previous book. Lara Jean is more mature now, which made it easier for me to relate to her. 
 In general, I just liked seeing the relationships between all the characters change and evolve and knowing how things continued where To All the Boys I've Loved Before left off. I went through it much faster than through the first one, because it kept me more on my toes, curious about what would happen next. I still feel like some issues have been neglected or could have been resolved better, though (view spoiler)[ (for example the possible relationship between Lara Jean's dad and Ms Rothschild and the fact that we've hardly seen Josh in the entire book - I get that they're not that close anymore, but they were still supposed to be neighbours and friends and I don't think his name was mentioned more than a handful of times at all) (hide spoiler)]. 
 Like the first book, it was a nice read - nothing special or outstanding, but I enjoyed it nonetheless.
