TRAILER: 



DISCUSSION: 

I did watch this one the same day it came out, was it as good? Nah. But still fun.


It was fun. Very, very, VERY cheesy. And not at all like the book. It was very condensed and was missing a lot. However, it was fun on its own accord. People who have never read the book would follow along fine. 



Yes, reading the book is certainly not necessary, but they are really cute and fun! I liked and did not like how book 1 ended with them not even together. But here they are and then a little drama, and maybe dad finds love, and the end. Very short. Movie 1 was certainly better, but I couldn’t stop watching either ;) I had to know they would be fine.



Completely agree on everything you said. Movie 1 was waaay better. But like the majority of transition stories the 2nd one is the rough patch. I hope they do movie 3. I haven’t read book 3 yet, but there is still a lot of growing up for our characters. They haven’t resolved all their issues yet and I really think they need to sit down and talk. Be honest 100%. And maybe get rid of Gen. Have her move away or something. Tired of her butt. 



Ugh Gen is the worst, but she is a toxic leech! He is being too kind. Just stop it, let her deal with her own stuff. I am reading my review for book 3 right now...wait. I was more negative in my memory, maybe I was kind in my review. But it felt like they went through the same stuff again and I didn’t really like Peter there. Ring a bell. But I totally want a movie 3.



Maybe we can read/listen to book 3 before the next one comes out ;) You know they are for sure going to do the 3rd one too! They would be fools NOT to. YESSSS GEN IS A LEECH! Her reasons for hating Lara Jean is STUPID. Grow up >_>. 



Ehh, no. Since my memory said it was meh, I say no ;) The books should have stopped at 2. Or 1.



Hahahaha. I agree. BUT a nice short story or giving us an epilogue would’ve been nice. I want to see where everyone ends up as adults and out of the High School BS. 



I honestly can’t even remember now if they are together after book 3...dang what happens in book 3? I remember college woes and a beach house. Read it and tell me.



You know I will! I have it on my shelf waiting for me. I am curious, but I am nervous. I just want them to be happy even though book Peter pisses me off. Movie Peter is WAY better. Yes, he does some of the dumb stuff still, but not AS much and he’s not AS sneaky as book Peter. 



Lol. I will wait and see then. I honestly do not have a lot to say. I enjoyed the movie. You should DEFINITELY watch movie 1 first (cos the cutest) and you should totally read book 1 too! Gen sucks. LJ and Peter are cute together, when they are not idiots (like 90% of the time). And yay for their dad too



Yes, yes, and yes. I’m happy Dad is finding love. And poor John!!!! I want John to have a HEA. He was the sweetest. I love Peter more, but I adored John. Especially Movie John...they picked such a cutie to play him. Not at all how Book John was described, but I liked him. Fun cast. I wish we had more Stormy interactions. Oh well. Overall, fun, cheesy, and cute. Not amazing. But good. 



Stormy was cool. John was great, but hmm, maybe not for her.

The end already? How can I not have more to say? I mean it was good, the end


A quick one! But I think we covered the main points! 

Yes, the end :)

  6. I watched this one this past weekend! It was cute, though I agree def not as good as the first one. But like you, I had to keep watching to see how it ended up.

  7. My daughter watched this one as soon as it came out. I feel like I should read the books first and who knows when that will happen.

  8. I never even knew the movie was about a book until very recently(lol), but like most everyone else, I really, really loved the 1st one so much, because it was such a clever idea and so much fun. The second was good too, but definitely not as good as the first. Now I want to read Book 3 to see what happens!(lol) Hugs, RO
