Cute little novella. I don't like it when teenagers talk about and have sex. Other then that I liked the short story

For being a short free story, this wasn't too bad. I enjoyed it for what it was, and the romance was cute. It would've been nice if we could've gotten to know all the characters a bit better though.

It was such fast read.
Sadly, the love story was really fast. It happened in just a blink of an eye.
It could be expanded actually and would be a cool- sweet- romantic high school love story.
Yet, it was fine. Such a light- read :')

Does not pass the Bechdel test.
Amazon freebie—I don't have a Kindle but just discovered the Kindle cloud reader, which I'm probably going to regret. In any case, this particular piece was full of characters who talk and think about literally nothing other than the opposite sex. Almost no characterisation, and anytime there's even a hint of a non-relationship plot point, the characters run screaming into the arms of a love triangle. (Or square. Or nonagon.)
But...it's short. And it has a lively cover. And boarding school. And I have no self-control with books. So there's that.

Ew. I read this so on I could tick off a book set in highschool for my reading challenge, so I am pretty glad it was only 50 pages long. This was pretty horrible to read - stilted characters and dialogue, pretty terrible plot and really forced everthing, really. The main characters Ellie and Nate were unlikeable and there was no real chemistry, and there were a lot of extra side characters that were unnecessary. Worldbuilding was terrible-a massive lack of any sort of descriptions, so there was only adescription of Ellie about halfway through the book.
Not recommended.

Not my usual three stars. I mean she is 16 and he is 17 and both are too experienced in opposite se to know how to play the game. psst but if the characters were little more older and the book was little more elaborate and with some teasing and hot scenes this could have been a winner. Still it was neat, fast no nonsense kind of book. i didn't eyeball or gag or said "WHAT THE FUCK" (which is rare, recently) hence 3 stars.
