I was hopeful because there finally was some variation in the plot compared to the first three books, but there were just too many unlikeable characters and problematic situations that weren't handled well. It was offputting.

This book was good! Definitely the weakest out of the whole series, but maybe that’s because I don’t like the pregnancy trope. I also expected this book to start off right when the last one ended and that was not the case.

Probably my least favorite of the series so far. Alot of back and forth. Alot of internal yelling "go for it! Stand up for yourself! Tell him!" Now on to the last book :)

I found Sabrina to be a little annoying at times with her unwillingness to try a relationship. Tucker is amazing. I also wish some of the antagonists would be put in their place.  I would like to have some of the plot lines to be expanded on. 

Great message and lovely book overall.

 The Goal

Format : audiobook | Audible
Rating : 4 stars
Genre : New Adult, Contemporary, Romance
No Spoilers :

This was such an adorable story! I don’t think I’ve read a lot of pregnancy trope books before hence I never really had an opinion. I however enjoyed this book completely!

Sabrina is wonderful protagonist! Yes there are times she is just too stubborn for her own good but it’s mainly because she doesn’t want to burden other people and I felt some familiarity with that. I suppose thats why I really love this character. I wanna be her when I grow up !
Tucker is a complete book boyfriend! Absolutely loved him!

Overall the story was wonderful and kept me engrossed throughout. I did get a bit confused with the names of all the characters but I think it’s mainly because I started this series so far ahead.
Definitely picking up another one in this series!

saur after the semester ended i had no want to read this anymore 😭 especially bc i didnt really care for these characters if we’re comparing them to the rest. but recently ive had a weird bout of baby fever (no comment) and decided to finish this. that being said i definitely sped read through the last 60% of it and especially was just waiting for her to be pregnant. i also think that now that ive read all four i kinda Have to read the epilogue book so if u catch me reading that say nothing. also if u catch me reading summer’s book u didnt see that other. sometimes a girl just needs her trashy romance books okay
