If you've read To All the Boys I've Loved Before [1], the first novel in Jenny Han's bestselling trilogy, then you're probably already obsessed with it. If you haven't, don't worry — you have plenty of time to fall in love with the YA books before they hit the big screen (the first one hits Netflix in August [2]!). The story follows Lara Jean Song Covey, a teenager whose secret love letters to her former crushes accidentally get sent out. To avoid admitting her past feelings, she fakes a relationship with one of them, but she quickly realises she may not be pretending after all.

Details about the movie, including the cast, have been slowly coming out over the past few months, and Han has even been sharing adorable set photos on social media [3]. She also expressed her excitement over the fact that her diverse characters, which aren't typically seen as leads in the predominantly white romantic comedy genre, get three movies [4] with its sequels, P.S. I Still Love You and Always and Forever, Lara Jean. "The most important thing for me as the author is seeing an Asian American girl in the starring role, and with this movie, we get to see not one but THREE!" she wrote. "That is truly groundbreaking."
