I absolutely loved this book, definitely my favourite in the off campus series so far, however the ending definitely caught me off guard haha but it actually made the book better for me personally. I loved Deans character development as it didn’t happen immediately (i hate love at first sight!) but i love the slow changes in his character of the time him and Allie were getting closer. Allie is such a great character, i feel like Hannah and Grace (the love interests in the past two books) were written as being these “quirky” “cute” girls when really they just ended up being a bit annoying. Allie is definitely written in this way too but i feel like her character is much better developed than the other two girls, she’s not annoying or cringy and she seems genuinely sweet. I liked this plot line the most so far, not too dark but not so lack lustre that it’s like every other book out there. I cant wait to get onto ‘The Goal’ and see Tucker and Sabrina’s relationship flow. Absolutely love this series, i will be reading the Briar U after this as well :)
