To all the Boys I've loved before by Jenny Han

The book " To All the Boys I've Loved before" by Jenny Han was one of the best romantic young-adult books I have ever read. The book is about a girl, Lara Jean, who keeps secret love letters for all the boys who she has ever had a crush on. She keeps those letters in her dead mom's hatbox. One day  they mysteriously get sent to all the boys, and everything gets out of hand. Lara Jean's sister Margot, is dating their neighbor, Josh, before she breaks up with him to go to college in Scotland. One of the letters get sent to Josh, and another to her former crush Peter and a lot of other people. Lara Jean still likes Josh, but doesn't want to admit it, so when Josh asks if she is dating anyone Lara Jean gets scared and just runs over to Peter who is coincidentally, standing across the hall and kisses him. It turns out that Peter is also wanting someone to fake being a boyfriend  because he wants to make another girl, Genevieve jealous. So Peter and Lara Jean start "fake dating". As Margot and Lara Jean are growing apart, Josh starts missing Margot, so he turns to Lara Jean for help. Soon Josh realizes that he likes Lara Jean and he kisses her. Lara Jean is going on a ski trip, with her class and Peter is also invited, and on that trip Lara Jean realizes that she likes Peter. The make out in the hot tub, and a classmate saw them and thought that they were having sex, so she spread the rumor to everyone that Lara Jean and Peter had sex. That makes Lara Jean extremely angry, so Peter and her have a fight. When Margot comes home for christmas, and finds out that Lara Jean kissed Josh, and that she's "dating" Peter she becomes extremely angry.  Margot also heres the rumor that she had sex with Peter, she is pissed. But of course they make up, and they become best friend sisters.
I think this book connects to high schoolers, and all the drama that goes on, and dating and jealousy. I would recommend this book to anyone who like YA books and romantic books. And anyone who is bored, just read this book.
