It looks cute so far, but I’ve trailed didn't really show much of what I remember from the book. Does Joe Alwyn play the younger Steven?

[beesknees7]

I saw this last year but never read the book, so I can't remember the character's name, but he plays her favorite uncle.

[missmagic12]

Ahh, that’s not Steven. Or at least, the character I’m calling Steven. I think that was his name in the book, but he’s not her uncle.

I ended up finding it on the wiki. Joe's her uncle George who falls in love with her friend.
