This franchise ( my personal favorite ) is a book adaptation based on author Jenny Han’s series. It follows a high school romance that started with Lara Jean, a shy teenager , writing letters to previous crushes she’s had that accidentally get sent out. One of her previous crushes , Peter Kavinsky, ends up liking her back, and the highs and lows of their relationship throughout the rest of high school, from exes to college, are shown throughout the trilogy.
