 I just love Jenny Han. I devoured her previous Summer series in a few days, so when I saw this in the library catalog I jumped on it. 
 Lara Jean writes letters to all the boys she's loved, so she can let them go. She writes out all the reasons she loved them, and why she doesn't now, and how she wished it were different, and then she takes the letter and puts it in a hatbox. One day, someone mails the letters, and suddenly Lara Jean is in the middle of various schemes and shenanigans to save face. Along the way she learns about what love really is, which might sound contrived but the book was written so well it wasn't. 
 Han has a real knack for capturing the voice of teenagers. The dialogue and emotions were all very realistic, making it easy to slip into Lara Jean's perspective. 
 Things I loved about this book: 
 How the Song girls interact with each other, fighting sometimes, but always making up. 
 No one got pregnant. I thought about half way through that Margot was carrying Josh's love child, and I was miffed. Han didn't use this silly plot filler, though, and I was pleasantly pleased. 
 The depth of the secondary characters. I feel like I KNOW Peter and Kitty and Genevieve. (Actually, I think we've all known Genevieve at some point in our lives.) 
 How the book doesn't center around Lara Jeans drama at school, but actually follows her day to day life. 
 I'm hoping there's a sequel in which Peter gives Lara Jean the locket from his mom's shop. ^_^ 
 Things I didn't like about this book: 
 Chris. Chris was a throwaway character, and you could have taken her out altogether and not affected the plot. 
 How we don't really address the Peter - Genevieve issue. Sure, we notice Lara Jean is jealous, and Peter is spineless, but I really wanted more resolution. I wanted Peter to finally see what a lying, manipulative little brat Genevieve was. I wanted there to be a showdown in which Genevieve doesn't get her way, and Lara Jean is vindicated. I suppose that's a tiny bit much to ask. 
 Speaking of resolution, I'd have loved to see the letter Lara Jean was writing! Or see Peter and Lara make up! 
 This marked as book 1, so I'm hoping these things are resolved in book 2. Maybe Chris can become relevant, Genevieve can eat dirt, and Peter can redeem himself. All I know is I'll be buying it as soon as I see it!
