I can’t get over how much I love this series!!! I barely slept ALL weekend so I could read it! It’s absolutely incredible!! Tuck & Sabrina man! Yet again, Tuck is another dream man, especially with his southern accent! 😘 & headstrong Sabrina, I loved everything about her! & reading about all the past couples as aunts & uncles! I just love it!! I love everything about this book! & I can’t wait to start the Legacy & see where all the couples are in the future!! 🥰

As devastated as I am to bring the Off-Campus series to a close, my heart is warmed by the way we finished. Sabrina and Tucker are such gentle souls, and they truly deserve every happiness. I only wish they’d gotten it sooner!

As always, Elle Kennedy touches on heart-wrenching topics while still maintaining the utter joy of a good romance. I don’t know how she does it, but I’m so glad she does. To The Legacy!

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.

Now that I have finished the Off-Campus series (I still have yet to read The Legacy, but we all know that it's the epilogue book), I can now rank the books.

1. The Goal
2. The Deal
3. The Mistake
4. The Score

I never really thought someone would top Garrett as one of my book boyfriends… until I read The Goal. There's something about sweet men and Tucker was the sweetest. As for Sabrina, I related to her not because of her family issues, but because of her drive and strength. Both MCs are much more lovable to me than the others, that's why The Goal made it to my top 1.

If it weren't for Garrett, I wouldn't place The Deal in the second spot. In my opinion, he saved that book. Garrett will always be one of my favorite book boyfriends. I felt that Hannah's character was a bit forced. Her overly cheerful personality seemed like she was trying too hard to be that type of girl.

As for The Mistake and The Score, they were just average for me (The Score was forgettable).
