I loved this series. I don't always say that when I watch a TV series based off of a book series.

I thought the casting was spot on.

When does season 2 start? hahe

I hope they don't make us wait a year. That will be torture. I get it, though. It's kind of a seasonal show.

I didn't mean to watch this show, truth be told the title kinda turned me off.

But i saw it on a site when I was watching a different show so I decided to check it out. It was okay, a bit cheesey. It felt like a bad version of "To all the Boys" lol. So when I found out it was the same writer I totally laughed. Makes sense. The show just is not as well acted and the plot is a bit blah/cliche imo but I'll give it a chance. I did like the music they used!

Conrad is cute, he's got like a Harry Styles vibe to him. Definitely curious to learn more about his character and why he's so depressed/different right now. Its pretty obvious they are setting him and Belly to be the otp of the show. I think they have decent chemistry but its a bit cliche.

Jeremiah is cute, his eyes, dang, but it def. feels like more of a friend chemistry with Belly imo.

I want to see more of her friend. Her brother is annoying. The moms are okay.... and Belly herself is a bit bland but shes fine for now. The name Belly irritates me tho!

Honestly, I loved Cameron the most! He was really sweet and cute and they seem very similar, so I'm wondering what his role is going to be.

Is the guy at the store gonna have a more prominent role or was he just there to get her to the party? lol. Why does she have so many potential love interests?

yes I totally see the young Leo look in him too

Cameron and Taylor I didnt care for at all

I dont know why they are giving her so many love interest. I hate when shows do that.

made some icons for the show from what I could find on Tumblr. once actual screen caps become avail I'll make more
















bts pix

cute. i watched a few fanvids out of curiosity after watching episode 2. Cameron is SO CUTE I dont get why they just got rid of him. What a pointless storyline!

I actually kinda think i might ship her more with Jeremiah actually Cuz I felt more chemistry in their kiss and when the main pairing is too pushed on us I tend to get annoyed. But well see.

I am going on a trip and wont be back til July so Ill have to watch episodes then.

thanks for those

some amazing fan videos

i guess the belly and conrad moment was a build up from the start, she always liked him and i think he does as well , just the tension and the looks and the way he lights up around her
