I was pretty shocked at how much I loved this movie, considering I'm not really into rom-coms (as I previously mentioned). But I gave it a shot because I wanted to support a movie that starred an Asian-American actress. As you probably know from all the hype and reception, To All the Boys I've Loved Before was a win for Netflix. But more than that, it was a win for the move toward diversifying certain roles, particularly leads in rom-coms. Lana Condor did her thing and showed other young women of colour that they, too, are worthy of romance and can snag the Peter Kavinksys of the world if they so choose. And I'm all about that.
Now excuse me while I look for the Peter to my Lara Jean.
