review

*This post contains spoiler because I have to! I want someone to feel what I feel! Lol :p*

I love P.S. I Still Love You as much as I love the first sequel - To All The Boys I've Loved Before! Well, it's about a girl named Lara Jean who is in this new sequel, she is head over heels, in love with Peter Kavinsky, even more, deeper and in P.S I Still Love You, we can see that their relationship has been tested like a lot with video of the two of them been viral, with Gen's being the third wheeler also the boy whom Lara Jean has a feeling on him during 8th Grade make his appearance. All in all, we can see in this book is that the progression between the two of them and how Peter Kavinsky handles his relationship with Lara Jean. Anyway, it is a very enjoyable book to read.

P.S. I Still Love You is much interesting to read is because it really shows what and how relationships work in real life. Reality rather than a fantasy which this is one reason that I really love Jenny Han's writing. I guess, the only thing I think I want to complain here is that I need more of John Ambrose McClaren interaction with Lara Jean. It feels very short and ends so fast. To be honest, I start to ship John Ambrose with Lara Jean rather than Peter Kavinsky and Lara Jean. Because that guy truly loves her with all his heart while Peter..well, he loves Lara Jean but somehow he still sticks with Gen which is so bloody annoying and it's very confusing. Like did he really want to be with Lara Jean or Gen? One more thing, I don't know why I can't feel the love from Peter to Lara Jean like I feel from John Ambrose McClaren. Is it because I'm shipping John more than Peter? Hmm This is confusing hihi

Anyway, both them made a promise to always, to be honest in anything but it seems it doesn't happen here with Peter who still kind of protect Gen more than Lara Jean. I hate that! Gen is the one who is not yet moving on and make Lara Jean's suffer also increase her insecurities but thank God, Lara Jean has Stormy who always talk to her and share about a relationship things. Those talks bring her more confidence in almost everything.

One of Lara Jean's characters that I really like is that her constant curiosity nature in wanting to know everything around her is so cute. She enjoys to ask many questions either with her family, friends and her boyfriend, Peter and it seems everyone enjoys in answering all the questions that been asked by Lara Jean. 

Overall, as I said before, I really love Jenny Han's writing which is more realistic also the family values that portrays in here is very strong and we all can feel how supportive are they towards each other, been there for each other through thick and thin is so wonderful. It just that the ending happen so fast and it feels I need more - 100 more pages because it wasn't enough with that ending. 

Do I recommend it? Well, if you enjoy reading fluffy, sweet, cheesy with strong family relationships in it then I strongly recommend you to read it because you won't feel disappointed (I hope!).
