On Friday, a new rom-com, To All The Boys I've Loved Before, graced Netflix screens.
The movie is an updated twist of the age-old "fake dating" story.
Lara Jean, played by Lana Condor, is a Korean-American 16-year-old with a hopeless crush on her sister's ex-boyfriend.
Peter Kavinsky (Noah Centineo) is the most popular boy in school who wants to make his ex-girlfriend jealous.
Predictably, the two pretend to date to overcome their own obstacles, but fall for each other in the process. Without giving away too much, the pair faces their own set of challenges, perfectly playing out the assumed plot line.
But despite it's formulaic structure, To All The Boys I've Loved Before, is endearing in its own right and has already developed a dedicated fan base. Perhaps that's because it's based on a New York Times best seller of the same title by Jenny Han.
In fact, Twitter can't get enough.
