Learning Curve by Max Monroe
4.0

Note: This review is for an ARC and is my unbiased opinion.

Max Monroe was right when they said this book was drama. It was so much dramaand that drama was all over the place. Just when I would think things had finally calmed down for the characters, they would explode again. It was a lot of fun. Max Monroe's writing was a good and funny as ever, bit they also made me tear up a bit at times.

Scottie and Finn were great characters. I really liked them when they were together. I hated the things that kept them apart. They grew throughout the book, like college freshman do when they're on their own for the first time. That being said, there were a couple of times I wanted to impart some wisdom to them. Luckily, they had friends and family to do that for them.

Max Monroe have them support in the form of the kids of characters from past books. Ace (Cassie and Thatch) and Julia (Georgia and Kline) were great support and fun to get to know. Lexi Winslow was another fun one to have around. I also loved the new characters.

There were only a couple things that I'm still not sure I loved. The first was the length of this book. I thought it could have wrapped up sooner. 70-100% of it was a shock and I don't know if it was truly necessary for these characters. The other thing was sometimes college felt more like high school, but that wasn't a huge deal.

Overall, I enjoyed the start to this series. I'm really excited for the next book.
