Would have been better if it was college students, a lot of it hinged on stuff that didn’t make sense for high schoolers to be doing.

As someone who is openly not a fan of contemporary romance, I absolutely adored this book. It was missold to me as a romantic comedy which I honestly disagree that it was: instead it tells a lovely coming of age story about a young man struggling to find his feet at a prestigious school when his rival doesn't seem to have the same issues.

What I liked: The silliness of the teenage boys. They all felt like real people, developed personalities and they are all so kind to each other.

What I disliked: I actually would have liked this book to be longer. I wanted to know more about Charlie and Jasper and STRIP. They're a hilarious ragtag group and I wish they'd been around a little bit longer.

This is a fantastic novel, and I'm delighted to have it as part of my collection.
