I am so excited for the movie, it comes out next Friday! Has anyone delved into the other two books of the trilogy yet?

I've briefly started the 2nd book! It's so amazing so far I'm SO excited!!! ALSO WARNING, don't look up any descriptions of the books. I accidentally spoiled a little of it for myself because of a small description (not a synopsis), and I'm pissed at myself. I mean, the author kind of hints at what spoiled something for me early on in the Prologue, but still I would have liked to enjoy that surprise for myself.

Also I love how Rachel and Nick are both in their thirties because I feel like a lot of romcom folks are early 20s which... no.

YES! I also love how in the movie, Rachel is played by Constance Wu, who is a single, smart businesswoman but Constance also plays Jessica on Fresh Off the Boat, who is a stay at home mom of 3. I feel like that just proves wrong the stereotype that once you play a mom on a tv show you can't go to a kind of 'having the time of your life without seeming like you're desperate for love and your ovaries are drying up' rom-com, if that makes sense.

Longer review to come later!
