This movie deserved a separate post since I loved it so much. If you are thinking of watching a romantic movie, this may be the one:

Image result for the guernsey literary and potato peel society rotten tomatoes

Year: 2018
Genre: Drama/ Romance
Rotten Tomatoes Score: 79% from the critics and 78% from the audience
Recommended by me ? : Definitely yes! A 100% from me! Set in the UK in 1946. Beautiful scenery on the British island of Guernsey occupied by the Germans back them. A small island where a few inhabitants come up with a book club to cope with the nazi invasion using their imagination through reading books. Fate will bring liberal female writer, Juliet, together with the book club. A special connection starts via letters with the members of the club , which gets stronger once they meet in person. You start believing in true love again after seeing this movie. You can tell that it's based on a novel by the richness of their dialogues and its beautiful photography. I bought the book straight after I watched it and I'm looking forward to visiting the island of Guernsey one day!
