Yeah. Big nope from me. I just couldn’t get into it and life is too short to read a book you hate. Full disclosure I never even finished it. I have no desire to find out the ending.
I DNF'd this at 22%. Anastasia is an ice skater. Nate is a hockey player. They end up having to share the rink because of an accident that ruined one of the rinks. They hook up but it's weird because she has a friends-with-benefits guy and Nate is a total player, which is annoying (both). I DNF'd it because of that plus the main characters are kind of annoyingly immature. I know it's supposed to be super popular but UGH. I just couldn't.

THIS. THIS WAS EVERYTHING I WANTED AND MORE. stassienate will go down as some of my favorite people of all time. and y’all.. lola, robbie, jj, russ. the puckbunnies group text!!!!! the entire dynamic of the friend group just made this even more enjoyable. and ROUND OF APPLAUSE FOR MY MAIN MAN HENRY MF TURNER!!! HE IS A KING. ILL TAKE NO ARGUMENTS.
not only amazing characters but also: positive conversations about therapy, diversity & representation within the friend group, sex positive, banter & comedy, iconic friendships, immaculate romance, the spice!!!! goodbye. i have nothing but amazing things to say about this. it wasn’t even all that plot heavy so if ur a plot person.. this may not be for u. but i’m a character person through and through so this GOT ME.
imma shut up but just run & read it.
“here I was thinking this was just a casual, no commitment, no jealousy thing.”
“shut up, anastasia.”

"I wouldn’t necessarily say I’m a control freak, but I’m a woman who needs to be in control."

Oh man, this one is unnecessary long, boring and 50 shades of grey-ish but in a college. Phenomenal my ass. I shouldn't trust anything with TikTok sensational label. The only reason I give 2 stars is because Anastasia is a determine character and the cover is cute. Nathan is cute too but he gives me "christian grey but college-ish vibes"
But the rest, oh my God! Don't let the cover fool you. The smut
