The first book in the Briar U series. Summer DiLaurentis, who is a fashion major, transfers to Briar U from Brown after she accidentally sets a fire at her sorority house. She moves into a house with a few of her older brother’s friends and develops a crush on one of the hockey players there named Colin Fitzgerald. Colin is a coder who develops video games, in edition to playing hockey. They dance around their feelings for each other, eventually giving in and finding out they have more in common than they thought (such as their love for a epic fantasy series).

At first, I was being a total Fitz and taking Summer at surface level - so much so that I considered stoping at about 10%. Then I realized that was unfair, so I gave it a few more chapters and ended up really enjoying Summer as the MFC. Her struggles with ADHD were handled really well and I appreciated the attempt to show her adaptation to alternate learning methods.  

However, while I ended up enjoying probably the first 80%, the last 20% just tanked - everything moved at light speed and it all got wrapped up with a pretty bow much too quickly.

this was so cringy i was threatening to dnf just after the first chapter. it read like really bad fanfiction and i deserve to be compensated by all the people who recommended this book. 

it gets an extra .5 star because i was simply entertained by how bad it was.

i dont usually leave reviews this harsh but this book was so incredibly awful. it was so poorly written that the writing was entertaining. it felt like a reality show. im still not sure who the target audience is because the writing style is that of a middle schooler but it is intensely sexual. if i didnt know better i would guess that this book had been written by a 13 year old girl on wattpad or a man who has never met an adult woman. for some reason, i could not put this book down. im not sure if it was the shock factor of the writing or what but i at least have to give this story one star for entertaining me for a few hours.
