My Thoughts . . .
When I first started it was a bit slow. I kept waiting for the letters to be sent and for the story to pick up. I wasn't going to put it down though, I thought about it but wanted to get through it. I hadn't read many contemporaries and romances. Then it all picked up and was completely amazing. The family, the letters, the romance, it all just worked.
There was a few truly amazing things worth mentioning. The characters. Five boys got letters but it was mostly about Josh and Peter. Team Peter all the way. I fell in love with him time after time and couldn't get enough. And he's not the only one that I felt thing way about. Lara Jean annoyed me at times but over all she won my heart. And Kitty. I love Kitty so much. Her and Peter were my favorite.
The timing and pacing of the book was also amazing. Sure it took some time to take off, at least to me it did but once it did, it did. It kept going and was amazing to read. Not to slow but not rushed. Just perfect.
Overall I think it was utterly amazing. I would recommend it to anyone and everyone.
Thank you so much for reading <3
