This budding drama of first love, first heartbreak, and the beauty of that one ideal summer, promises a visual brilliance one can’t miss.
Stranger Things (Netflix)
The story is set in the 1980s in a fictional town called Hawkins. During the investigation of a friend’s abrupt disappearance, a group of teens discover horror of unimaginable proportions.

Every generation gets the high school rom-com it deserves. For us, it’s ‘To All The Boys I’ve Loved Before’. The story centres on the romance-obsessed 16-year-old Lara Jean, played by Lana Condor.

The fun begins when her meddling younger sister mails them all out, and Lara sets up a fake-dating scheme with letter recipient Peter Kavinsky (Noah Centineo) to smoothen everything out. But that’s not what fate has in store for her!
So, without further ado, grab your popcorn and go on a teen drama spree!
