To All the Boy's I've Loved Before

Lara Jean has been in love 5 times.  She's never had a boyfriend, but that hasn't stopped her from loving these boys from afar.  When she realizes her crushes must come to an end, she writes them letters describing why she no longer loves them.  She puts them in a hat box in her closet with no intention of ever sending them.  This helps her get over these boys, and she moves on.  Until her letters get mailed.  She doesn't know how it happened, but the first boy she ever kissed tells her he is none of the things she described in the letter.  Lara Jean is traumatized.  Mainly because she wrote one letter to her sister's ex-boyfriend.  The boy next door, Josh.  As Lara Jean works to save face around everyone, she digs herself into an even deeper hole.  As she figures out how to climb out of it, she learns a lot about herself, and really grows up.
I really liked this book.  I thought the character of Lara Jean was very sweet and innocent.  Her mother died when she was younger, and her older sister Margot has taken care of Lara Jean and her younger sister Kitty.  Margot moves to Scotland for college and Lara Jean has to shoulder most of the responsibility.  I thought the crush on Margot's ex-boyfriend was a little creepy, but it works itself out, and is explained in a way that is understandable.  I would highly recommend this book as a light-hearted, very G- rated book.  I wouldn't even really describe it as a romance, it's mainly a coming of age, trying to figure out you place in the world type book.
