A Day In August

During August of 2005 when word first spread across New Orleans about Hurricane Katrina, no one took it seriously. As the storm swept closer, 17-year-old Louis Devereux is forced to stay behind with his family, while his girlfriend, Monroe Le Blanc, evacuates the city with her parents. After the storm settles and months pass without any contact, Louis goes on a mission to find her by any means necessary. Meanwhile, Monroe has already moved on and accepted the fact that he’s dead. But if Louis has anything to do with it, not a human or hurricane will keep them apart.

To All the Boys I’ve Loved Before is the story of Lara Jean, who has never openly admitted her crushes, but instead wrote each boy a letter about how she felt, sealed it, and hid it in a box under her bed.

But one day Lara Jean discovers that somehow her secret box of letters has been mailed, causing all her crushes from her past to confront her about the letters: her first kiss, the boy from summer camp, even her sister's ex-boyfriend, Josh.

As she learns to deal with her past loves face to face, Lara Jean discovers that something good may come out of these letters after all.
