Movie Night: To all the boys I have loved before

Lara Jean Covey writes letters to all of her past loves, the letters are meant for her eyes only. Until one day when all the love letters are sent out to her previous loves. Her life is soon thrown into chaos when her foregoing loves confront her one by one.

Director: Susan Johnson
Writers: Sofia Alvarez (screenplay by), Jenny Han (based on the novel by)
Stars: Lana Condor, Noah Centineo, Janel Parrish 

My thoughts:
The book was so sweet, so when this was turned into a movie I had to watch it!

And yes the movie was sweet too. Oh and I loved her clothes, I wish I had dressed like that in HS, sigh.

Condor was great as Lara Jean. I like how the book and movie actually has a present parent, nothing wrong with  Josh Corbin.

The only things that bothered me was that the ending felt rushed, mostly cos I have read the book and knew how long it should take. Oh well, they wanted to wrap things up and it sure has a better ending than the book. But then never explained why Gen was a b*tch. Oh and they totally cut out her love of baking! I loved that about the book.

But anyway, yes it is a teen movie but do watch it :D

  4. I liked the easy ending to the movie, it didn’t have all the drama that the book did. I thought all in all they did a good job and all the city scape pictures are of downtown Portland.

    1. It did annoy me how the book ended, but still the movie felt rushed when they took in from book 2

  7. I thought this looked like a cutie, too. I still want to read the books at some point, but might jump to the movie first.

  11. I haven't read the books but everyone is always going on about her baking so I thought that was weird there wasn't more of it.

    I wasn't 100% sold on that romance but it was super cute!

  12. I've heard good things, but she's in high school, right? So how many "loves" has she really experienced?
