Netflix really said let's take all the YA romance novels and make films of them. I'm not complaining.

I used to be obsessed with the book when I was in high school. I'm here for all the Sarah Dessen adaptations. It's time.

[aspia_clark]

This is the first Sarah Dessen book I ever read. Man, did not know it was being adapted for a movie. Brings back the feels❤️

[benj]

I hope they make a “The Truth About Forever” adaptation. It was/is my absolute favourite Sarah Dessen book and I’d love to see the characters and story play out on screen.

[tasteslikepepsicola]

Was obsessed with this book when I was 12 and can’t wait for this adaptation. There are so many other great Sarah Dessen stories that deserve an adaptation too. Hope they do this justice.

Eli and Auden finally!!! As a long time Sarah Dessen trash can circa 2009 and proud former member of her Sarahland forum, I am READY for this. And this better mean we get more than the three Netflix told us about. I need my Wes.

Seems like a feel good Romance movie. I'm not going to MISS this

[yusraalharbi]

I loved that all the characters are REALLY nice, smart, and pure. I hate it when movies/series depict teens as mean, and shallow sexual animals.

[renatamazing]

This was my favorite book in high school, and Sarah Dessen remains one of my favorite authors, can't wait!

[ΛηδαΑυγερινου-ιχ]

I loved it. And to be honest the dialogues felt wayy more realistic, than every other teenage movie.

[jmeezy]

This movie was really cute and gave a nostalgic vibe. 10/10.

[rachelberes]

I was a huge Sarah Dessen fan growing up. Can’t wait to see this adaption. Hopefully they turn more of her books into movies. ❤️

[nikkis_corner]

I loved reading Sarah’s books in middle school, I’m so excited for this movie. I definitely need a re-read!

[gracerachel]

This is literally the book that got me into reading! So excited that it’s being made into a movie!

[garywilliams]

Just watched the movie. It was great. Loved all the characters and the actors portraying them. Job well done. A rare treat.

[hellocharlieebarley]

"Aren't they all, " quest, bike scene, food fight - it's happening! Also, can I just say that the actresses playing Auden and Heidi (Auden's stepmom) look EXACTLY how I pictured them, to a T. I'm looking forward to seeing who's going to play Auden's erratic brother, Hollis!

[chloeluv]

I loved this movie!!! The main character was annoying at times but honestly she had every reason and right to behave the way she did. I like the message. Definitely recommend

[idara]

Literally the first Sarah Dessen novel I ever read ages ago and now it's a movie! This is so exciting!!

[NETFLIXLOVING]

*Wow... So excited please do more of Sarah's Book and make my childhood dreams come true!!*

[superbp]

I would love to see a series of SD movies taking place in/around Colby with the characters making their cameos like they do in the books. TBH you could easily make a limited series out of them.
