Review: To All The Boys I've Loved Before by Jenny Han

Hey

I wanted to do an honest review on 'To All The Boys I've Loved Before'. 

The short chapters and the amount of chapters. I mean 72 chapters in a 355 page book seems really silly. 

Lara Jean seems like a brat and everything has to go her way or it wont work out. 

Lara Jean is reliant on her older sister but doesn't understand why her sister got so mad at her when she finds out that she had kissed Josh (the older sisters ex boyfriend who Lara Jean liked before he dated her sister)

I found the whole relationship with Peter a bit silly. Because of how reliant she is on her sister, she feels that she has to take control of this relationship. It was kind of obvious that they would end up together in the end. I must say though that I did like the fact that Peter had written the notes to Lara Jean

When Lara Jean finds out that its her younger sister that posted the love letters to the boys, Lara Jean gets really mad at her sister but through out the book she has stated that her younger sister is a bit of a detective and will always go looking for things
What I did like about the book is that it shows a single parent and that parent is the father.  You see it in books and TV shows where the parents are together, or if its  a single parent house hold it always seems to be the mum.  

 I found that as the book got nearer to the end I started to enjoy it a lot better then the beginning of the book. I like how Jenny Han started incorporating school trip and things that teenagers do such as staying out past curfew and gossiping behind people's backs. 
Over all I give this book 3 stars out of 5. Its not bad but its not super good that I want to run out and get the second book PS I Still Love You
