SYPNOSIS

Lara Jean is having the best senior year.

And there's still so much to look forward to: a class trip to New York City, prom with her boyfriend Peter, Beach Week after graduation, and her dad's wedding to Ms. Rothschild. Then she'll be off to college with Peter, at a school close enough for her to come home and bake chocolate chip cookies on the weekends.

Life couldn't be more perfect!

At least, that's what Lara Jean thinks . . . until she gets some unexpected news.

Now the girl who dreads change must rethink all her plans—but when your heart and your head are saying two different things, which one should you listen to?

BOOK REVIEW:

As the last book to the To all the boys, I've loved series it satisfied me as a reader. As cheesy as it sounds, it has reassured me that Lara Jean and Peter's relationship would push through. Despite the LDR status, I would like to think that they would be the end game. I am invested in their relationship which makes this important. As for the other characters, I loved that they had new beginnings to look forward to.

I understand Margo and her awkwardness when it comes to Ms. Rothchild, the to-be stepmom. Being the oldest in the family, it is important to preserve the memory of a deceased parent. I am worst than her since I don't like my mom dating. However, now I'm having doubts about my decision of feeling this way. Thinking about it, I am selfish and stubborn. But if my mom were persistent and wanted a relationship then in time I would accept it.

Somehow, the family dynamics in this book have changed a little. The Song girls tend to lean on Ms. Rothchild when it comes to the fun stuff in their life. Their father became more lenient when she came into their lives. Also, Kitty relies on her a lot while Margo was not comfortable in her own home. As for Peter and Lara Jean's father, it was a good gesture that he fixed his bachelor's party.

Peter and Lara Jean's relationship was on the rocks since they don't want an LDR relationship. However, this came true since Lara Jean was not able to qualify for her first option. Again, another thing I could relate to this story is the college and stuff. I understand the stress of waiting for confirmation etc. I don't like to experience it again. In the end, both characters made a compromise and a new contract just to ensure their relationship would endure and move forward.

This last book was a good conclusion to this series. My rating is 4.5 hearts since the story tied up loose ends in a good way. Also, I enjoyed reading it since it was better than the second book. The story is a light and cute read. Lara Jean is friend material but she is my least favorite character even if she is the main character. As for a favorite, it would be Peter, he is the best person for me. Despite his insecurities, Peter does make effort for himself and his relationships. Also, it was sweet of him to offer to do the bachelor's party.

BUY, BORROW, NEVER MIND: Buy

Thank you and Happy reading
