Biography

Although he is mentioned throughout the entirety To All the Boys I've Loved Before and even makes a short appearance in the first book, he just becomes a recurring character in P.S. I Still Love You after receiving Lara Jean's letter to him.

Before the events of To All the Boys I've Loved Before, John had been in Lara Jean's most romantic moments, which happened on a rainy day.

While Lara Jean's and Peter's relationship is being strained by Genevieve, Lara Jean and John start exchanging letters. Those letters bring them closer again, making Lara Jean wonder what would've happened if she had gone out with John instead of Peter.

Eventually, Lara Jean remembers the time capsule they buried in Carolyn Pearce's garden and decides to invite all of her middle school friends to open it. Being on bad terms with Peter and meeting John again, she starts seeing John as a potential love interest, especially after spending more time with him due to Stormy being his grandmother.

It is revealed in P.S. I Still Love You that John originally sorted out some flowers in Lara Jean's backyard to ask her out to the 8th grade formal until Lara Jean's father found him in the backyard, laying out some flowers. Lara Jean's father thought John was doing some backyard work around the neighbourhood and gave him some money to pay for the job. Because of that, John left Lara Jean's house and he never actually got to ask her to the formal.

Towards the end of Always and Forever, Lara Jean it is shown that he now has a girlfriend called Dipti, who we learn meets John after she beats him for gavel in Model UN. It is also mentioned that he will go to William and Mary after being rejected by UNC.
