- I really wasn’t feeling this at first because I hate too many pop culture references in books. I feel like it really dates the read but I’m SO glad I stuck it out 
- The banter, chemistry, and friendship between the main characters was everything. I love when people bring out the best in each other. It was really cute and I actually didn’t mind the slow burn because it felt like actually watching people fall in love 
- The female friendships were so amazing and made me happy 
- I felt like the behavior was a bit high school at times even though this was supposed to be college.
