Ugh, really, I can’t with these boys! Why are they all so freaking cute in this series? God, Fitzy is so cute! The hot, dark, grooming nerd from the outside but inside such a softy! He should have opened up to Summer earlier though, although I didn’t like how much Summer was pushing him from time to time. Still, enjoyed this story very much from Summer being labeled as the rich princess, which she never wanted to be and never was, to Fitzy‘s and her slow burn love. Jesus! Took them so long to finally admit their feelings and desire for each other and hurting Hunter in the process. He‘ll get over it, eventually, but I also think that Summer should have shut him down earlier and stop keeping his hopes up and definitely she shouldn’t have kissed him on New Year’s Eve. Anyways, five out of five. Now, can I get my hot, tattooed, painting, video games playing man as well? Thanks much.

i left off reading off-campus with high expectations for its sequel. i was ecstatic to pick this up, especially that i’ve been intrigued with summer since i met her in dean’s book. however, it did not reach my expectations.

don’t get me wrong, i love both fitzy and summer; i’m in love with their relationship. but, being exactly there was definitely not happiness and rainbows. it was exhausting to see them fighting over almost non-sense for above 50% of the book. i’m aware that summer’s character flaw is her stubbornness and that fitzy’s character flaw is being unable to speak up, however, it pisses me off that they won’t communicate and were leading each other on.

regardless, i still enjoyed the book. i now want dean as a brother of mine, and i definitely fell in love with tucker all over again (even if he only had one appearance). i’m excited to read the next book in the series, and hopefully it’s better.
