I thoroughly enjoyed this book! Jan just never disappoints me! I adored Evan and Scarlett. I loved getting to watch their relationship evolve over the book and loved that even though they started out as rivals, Evan was down bad for Scarlett from the very beginning! That man was OBSESSED with her (and Scarlett was secretly obsessed too in my opinion)!
My favourite part of this book is 100% the found family elements. Both Scarlett and Evan have complex family dynamics and it was so touching to see how their friends were always there for them when their families weren’t. I seriously adore this little friend group and cannot wait for the next North University book!!!
While this book had lots of extremely fun scenes, it also touched on some pretty heavy topics and although they were absolutely handled with care, please check TW’s before reading! Thank you Jan for the e-arc!

thank you to janisha for the arc!!
i absolutely adored falling so i had some pretty high expectations for unraveling and this book absolutely SERVED. academic rivals to lovers is a trope i don't typically read but still tend to enjoy when i do read it so i loved scarlett and evan's dynamics a lot! their bickering is so cute and their chemistry was so natural.
Scarlett was very relatable in some aspects, as someone who cares A LOT about grades and academics, i definitely understood her character. she deserves all the good things in the world fr. Evan is such a cutie, he is the definition of a golden retriever but i'm glad that his character was more complex than just one trait/emotion throughout the entire book.
additionally, the length of this book was perfect for me and the pacing allowed the characters to grow on me but also not so slow that it's torturing me to beg for them to hurry up and get together already. the mystery side plot was also a nice bonus to keep me hooked, it's nothing complex but still very fun to read about. also, i liked that this book wasn't super stressful to read because i feel like when i read more mystery-ish books with romance i get too caught up with the plot and spend less time actually enjoying the character development and romance part.
anyways, i don't have much to say except that i highly recommend this book if you're looking for something cute and if you want to get out of a slump because i sped through this book so fast!
