Pacing was very slow and the spice made it unbearable at times; it wasn’t part of the plot and ended up skipping around 3/4 scenes as they just didn’t add to anything.

I started off hesitantly as I wasn't immediately gone on the narrators, but they grew on me. I loved Bailey and Chase as characters and   think their connection was so strong for such young people. While it was a romance, I liked that it touched on topics such a
abusive relationships, consent and sex tapes
. I think the book was too long, though, a d hit a slump a bit after halfway. Also, I wonder if the characters are realistic for their age? Yes, they do dumb shit, but they are also much more mature than most 21-year-olds I know. Anywho, I loved the characters, the romance and the sex. Loved how Chase was patient and built Bailey up

innecesariamente largo

hockey is the shit right now and this one is the epitome

Oh God where do I being. Describing this book as boring is an understatement, I normally read a book before sleeping, with a normal book Im like one more chapter, with this book I was literally waiting for the page to end. They got together wayyy too early and nothing really happened for 90% of the book. I would never recommend this to someone, it has way too much unnecessary smut. Why the hell is it 600 pages!?!? This book put me in the longest freaking reading slump of my life. And Bailey is such a fucking pick me, oh I’m tall and wear jeans instead of skirts, not like the other girls.
