2.0
** Actual rating is 2.5 stars **
Alright, I gave this book a chance after not really liking the first… and this one was not any better. I like the idea of these books and I feel like they’re have SO much potential. But the way that the author goes about them is just… the wrong way.
I went to a so-called “party school” for college and maybe I didn’t hang around the right people but I genuinely have never met a college student as preoccupied with hookup culture as every single character in this series. I’m fascinated with what she tries to play off as “that’s just what college is!” Is it normal to hook up with people at parties? Yes, no doubt about that. But for that to be the sole motivation for half of the characters in the series, male AND female, is wild.

1st read: november 2-3 2016.
2nd read: june 24 2021.
I liked the couple as a whole more in this book (and that was true during my first read as well). This series is just... sweet and funny and cute and sexy and just a good time!!!
