The premise of this story kept me interested the whole time. The characters never felt over-dramatised or fake, I was rooting for them the whole time. I do think the ending felt a little rushed, but I would still recommend this book!

She Gets the Girl is very sweet and really shows the fear and hope that comes from leaving high school and going to college. Some of the plot is rather convenient, but it works out well enough for the genre.

I enjoyed this as a quick read but there wasn't much depth to it and it was frustrating being told everything (Molly is anxious! Alex is standoffish!) rather than being shown.

This one read a little young for me, but I think it's perfect for college-aged people! I think both main characters were well described in terms of their past and how that has affected their relationships (or lack there of). Molly was a bit of a struggle to read as her anxiety is overwhelming (to her), but knowing people who struggle with that level of anxiety I can understand it. The plotline of Alex helping Molly overcome this anxiety to ask out her crush was cute. Overall if you're the right age for this one I think it's generally a cute read, it just wasn't personally a fav for me.
