3.6/5 Stars People come in and out of your life. For a time they are your world; they are everything. And then one day theyre not. Theres no telling how long you will have them near. And now my love for this series starts to disintegrate. To die out, to wither. *hello darkness my old friend*. ANYWAY. This book starts off strong with a very interesting plot that was also used in the movie. The sex tape pool thing. It was brushed off lightly in the movie, but it showed many repercussions in the book. And I don't think it was handled well. The book pretends to be a feminist book but then Lara Jean is scared of being called "a slut" by her school. And also, we leave the whole situation to the boy A.K.A. Peter to handle it. Because he's the boy and he can do anything to protect his girl. Ugh. Anyway, let's get to the plot.Lara Jean didnt expect to really fall for Peter. She and Peter were just pretending. Except suddenly they werent. Now Lara Jean is more confused than ever. When another boy from her past returns to her life, Lara Jeans feelings for him return too. Can a girl be in love with two boys at once?I feel like this trilogy could easily be a duology. Combine the second and the third book, and here you go a new book which plot DOESN'T DRAG. This book's pace was slow, unlike its predecessor. It was too cozy and domestic and relationshippy without anything important happening for many pages. We also got the Josh factor erased from this book, so it was all Peter and Lara Jean. I enjoyed seeing their relationship grow, but come on, I DON'T CARE WHAT YOU'LL WEAR FOR HALLOWEEN. GIVE ME SOME GOOD OL' DRAMA.The Belleview scenes killed me. Not the good killing. The bad one. I honestly wanted to rip my eyes out. Or skip the pages. But I'm too much of a perfectionist to do that. Fuck my life. I know, it showed Lara Jean growing as a person and taking initiative, but it was too DAMN BORING. And the she leaves Belleview and we get some more family times and FUCKING FOOD. Ugh. Just spare me the details.The Genevieve drama was more apparent in this book. Thank God. Her little schemes saved the book. And also WTF PETER? Peter pissed me off so much in this book. I honestly wanted to scream. We got an explanation at the end of what Gen was going through but come on man? Explain to your girlfriend the dits! Everything could be resolved if they just talked to each other, but no no. Everything almost got to shit for nothing.And then we get John. I LOVED JOHN AND HIS ENTIRE POSH NAME AND PERSONALITY. His scenes with Lara Jean were adorable. I almost shipped it. I was honestly like "Come on Lara Jean really? How many more boys am I supposed to ship with you? You're confusing my mind". We get him as a valuable option for her, but then the same happened as with Josh. He disappears. I was so surprised she got with Peter in the end. It's like she kisses John and she feels things and then 10 pages later she's with Peter again and she's in love with him again. Like??? The ending of this book was too quick for me.I savored the tag thingy game in this book. It was fun. And Lara Jean won at the end. With a bad way, but she did. I love it when people who lose at games, and life basically, win at the end. It's so rewarding. To sum it all up, this review is short for my standards. I don't have much to say. This book didn't have much of a plot to go into. And as I have said before, I read all these books before writing the reviews. My head is so confused right now. I don't remember what happened and in which book it happened in. I'll say again, these books are so easy to read. But they are for 15 year old Maria. 21 year old Maria will judge them without wanting to. And I took an oath to myself to not judge these kinds of books. If I judged this book as I would want to, I would surpass the Goodreads limit of 20000 characters. So, yeah. And till the next one... K BYE!

3.5 Stars! Unfortunately, I struggle a bit with this sequel (this is typical of me) but overall, I enjoyed my time re-entering this story.For a large part of this book, I was afraid I had fallen out of touch with this story. I read book one when I was 18 and finally decided to continue 3 years later. Many of the tropes I no longer enjoy and critiques I used to skip over due to lack of reading experience unfortunately dragged down the story and I essentially felt as if I had gotten "too old" to enjoy this story in the same way. Luckily, the majority of my issues were resolved by the ending and I was able to end this book feeling more connected to the story.My favorite thing about this story is the family dynamic. A close-knit family of sisters and dedicated, loving father is not always common in young adult stories that are often full of absent families. I LOVE the interactions between the Song sisters. They are supportive, caring, dependable, love each other deeply. They do bicker like normal sisters, but their relationship is so inspiring and desirable. Their father is also kind, open-minded, and extremely supportive. The Song-Covey family is absolutely one of my favorite sibling-parent relationships in all of literature. Unfortunately, my biggest issue with the novel was the attitude of the main love interest. The only way to describe my feelings throughout this book is "uncomfortable" - I was very uncomfortable with Peter's choices and reactions to issues within this sequel. I understand that a lot of the jealousy, deception by omission, and prioritizing the "wrong" people are things that do happen in real life, especially for teens in relationships, but I can't possibly write this review without expressing how much I disagreed with it. I'm pleased that attempts at resolutions are made in the end, but I do feel some points were skipped over and not fully addressed for the sake of completing the novel more quickly.Another issue I had with this book was the introduction of a second love triangle. I know book one was basically built upon this trope (hence, why I feared I had grown out of my capacity to enjoy book two) but it felt so unnecessary. The conflict between Lara Jean and Peter was individually complex enough to exist without developing another potential love interest. It felt as if Peter was being villainized due to the introduction of this character, and this character was glorified to force readers to prefer them over Peter. I really dislike feeling as if the author is forcing me to feel a certain way or "pick a certain ship" so this aspect really rubbed me the wrong way. Again, I do feel it was resolved in the end, better than my first critique, so I'm not bothered any further.Despite my critiques, I still really enjoyed re-entering this story. A lot of times, the final judge of my enjoyment of a book is how motivated I am to find out what happens in the end and my desire to keep reading. For the first time ever, I actually had to stop listening to the audiobook because I needed to know what happened (albeit, mostly out of frustration). I switched to the physical book and stayed up well past my bed time to complete the story. When I reflect on P.S. I Still Love You, I will definitely remember the issues I had. But I will also remember how this book affected me emotionally, more than many books have in the last year, so it still left a positive, lasting impression. I'm continuing with the series as I write this review and I'm enjoying the conclusion more than book two, so I would still recommend this series as a unique, lovable contemporary romance.

Me: WHAT just happened? P.s I still love you: *screams* NOTHING!Me: Where's my character development?P.s I still love you: what did you just say?Me: *glares* P.s I still love you: *innocent eyes* OHHH you mean character retrogression? cOnGrAts book you got me having a conversation with you. HONESTLY I'M SO ANNOYED WITH THIS BOOK Why can't you just end the first one without a cliffhanger so you won't have to write a sequel that nothing happens. I WAS EXPECTING MY CUTSY LOVEY ROMANCE, where is it? Did Jenny Han really wrote this?1) Lara Jean continues to be stupid, annoying, brainless. She's sixteen, seventeen or eighteen? I'm fourteen, and she acts like my sister (not that I have one but if I do, I bet Ms-I-have-no-idea-how-old-she-is would be even more foolish than her) 2) Peter is not here half of the time (I loved him in the first one, what happened in this?) 3) YEAH BOOK YOU KEPT ME AWAY FROM HIM and you introduced Lara Jean to another guy (well sort of) But excuse me, you see I don't care if she falls in love with him but DON'T GIVE ME A CRAPPY LOVE/LUST-STUPID-LOVE-SQUARE. If it's going to be crappy either way, give me a love decagon, hecatontagon or worst a myriagon. 3) Hmm the plot.... What is it even about?4) Oh I remember it's about putting a bunch of cheese to a the classical cliché sandwich, INTRODUCING YOU TO THE 3Cs ONLY AVAILABLE IN P.S I LOVE YOU I'm so disappointed in this. To all the people who loved this book, P.s I did not mean to offend you.
