Elle Kennedy did such a great job of not only covering the heavy topics in this book but writing her characters with strong development. This book had me feeling so much nostalgia for college days and becoming an adult. I can’t wait to read the rest of the series

Okay. First book in the Off Campus Series. It took me longer than I would've liked for me to finish the book. And i almost didn't go back to it. But i'm glad did. 
As the first book of the series it did not disappoint. I actually really enjoyed it. The wit and humour in it is just me. Like i relate to it so much. 
But this book had a lot of layers. Loads of trauma and broken teenagers trying to find peace in each other. This is somewhat relatable in the sense where we've all been through something and we hope to be lucky enough to find someone who could help you through that. And i hope everyone finds that one day because I know I have. 
This book follows Garrett a star hockey player and Hannah a music major through the journey of love. It's kind of ironic that they got together since she had a crush on another guy when they first started talking. But that changed really quick. Them getting together was unexpected for them since she was just supposed to be helping him with a paper. But i think that just makes it better.
But the way Garrett and Hannah support each other through their struggles is really inspiring. I do think this book is an amazing read. 
Make sure to pay attention to the trigger warnings though. At some parts it can get quite heavy emotinally. But it is written so well and it builds the perfect foundation for the rest of the series.

2.5-3.
TW: sexual assault, domestic & child abuse.
Classic edgy mid-2010s Wattpad college romance story with only slightly less One Direction. 
Fluff story except for the frequent and sometimes abrupt mentions of r*pe and domestic/child abuse...
Also, to a lesser degree, the FL is not like other girls and guys will be guys (except for Garrett and Birdie, they're good guys). 
I will say, the author writes some decent hetero sex scenes.
