Lara-jean song is half Korean,she is also innocent,she has
always had a hopeless romantic life , she is caring and compassionate,and also
trusting. Lara-jean song has written other books like “P.S I STILL LOVE YOU”,”
THE SUMMER I TURNED PRETTY “ and so on. The theme of this book can be said to
be love can make people do crazy things. Or people may not be the same as they
may seem.
The story is about a girl who is named Lara-jean song, who
puts love letters in an old hat box given to her by her mother, the love
letters are been addressed to all the boys she has ever been in love with, even
though she has never being in a real relationship. When the unbelievable
happened, when the letters in the hat box was sent to all the boys, all she
thought was how she was going to face them.
Lara-jean’s personality-naive when it comes to boys. The
major boys who Lara jean can't face are Josh and Peter. Josh is the boy who
lives next door and who is also in a relationship with Lara- jean’s
sister(Margot), and who is also seen as a part of the family. And for Peter who
is the most handsome and popular boy in school. When she knew the letters got
to them she has being avoiding them , and for Josh she kissed him and doesn't
want her sister(Margot) to know. Peter who she was having a pretence
relationship with started falling in love with her, and she ended up almost
having sex with him in a public bath tub of a camp, the next day the rumor came
that she had sex in a camp public toilet with peter who is the most popular boy
at school.
What struck me when Lara-jean found out her sister(Margot)
had sex with Josh and knew that was the reason they broke up.
I liked the book because the story was enjoyable, the
characters were easy to relate to, the pace was fast enough to keep a reader
interested but still slow enough to make sense. The book was written based on
her love of writing long love letters to boys who she had had crushes on.
Lara-jean song wrote the book for herself, and I think
readers who like romantic novel would love to read the book because it's
interesting.
