After watching the Netflix movie and completely loving it, I decided to pick up the book. Now, I usually prefer to read the book prior to watching its adaptation but I decided to switch it up a bit. I genuinely liked this book. It's a very easy read, although, I thought the chapters were just......a little TOO short.

The whole fake-dating troupe is one of my favourites and thought it was done well in this novel. I quite liked all the characters (except Margot......she was kinda annoying but I digress). It surprised me how much Josh was featured in the novel and how central he was to the story when in the movie he was sort of just.......there......in the background. Lara Jean did seem a little......young? Just in the way she carried herself and spoke she just seemed a little immature and it worked but maybe because I'm almost 20 myself it was just a bit eh for me.
In saying this, I did see a lot of my myself in Lara Jean (from loving all things vintage to crushing on guys and never had a boyfriend as well as her attitude to love [loves the IDEA but the actually DOING it being a lil scary]).

Overall, I did enjoy the novel and will be continuing with the series.
