I thought this book was really good. It's a lighthearted, quick, cute read. Loved all of the characters which is rare. Because I'm sure to dislike someone. The storyline to me was universal. If it wasn't something we experienced we know somebody who has.

Reading this series now, with Freshman year being her first book, and after having read many of Alexandra Warren's latest books, I can definitely say she had grown as a writer. Did I love the story? YES! Could there have been some things more developed, etc. Yes. Is Alexandra Warren still one of my favorite authors UNDOUBTEDLY!! All in all, I'm so glad I met Alexis and Jaden and maybe one day, we can get an update.

Oh freshman, oh freshman year...

Alexis...couldn't get her at first, but learned to like her almost mid-way through the story. She took a while to let go and open up. Jaden...I liked him from the start. He was an open book; too bad Alexis was so wrapped up in her thang to realize it. Tyree...borderline perv if you ask me. Him and Alexis had a weird chemistry. This is very reminiscent of those fresh meat daze. I enjoyed rethinking choices I made and the newness of the college experience. Recommended.

Still #TeamAlexisJaden

I enjoyed the story, but was left expecting more. I get the back and forth; it's interesting and intriguing. I am becoming frustrated. I need to see more development between Alexis and Jordan to stay vested. Too quick of a read. I finished in about an hour and a half...

good start

Off the rip, I like Jaden more than Tyree. I low key think they both playing her though. I was going to say the characters exchanges were childish but they’re in college and this is exactly how it goes. I don’t like how Jaden make it seem like Alexis was a drunk. I think she’s going to end up with Tyree. Can’t wait to see what happens next.

tired of the back and forth

Alexis seems to always find a reason to not be with Jaden. She’s tripping. She’s actually starting to get on my nerves this book. Everything was circumstantial. I already peeped the duo who set Jaden up. I hope they don’t break up anymore.
