The Risk by Elle Kennedy
3.75
funny lighthearted relaxing medium-paced
Plot or Character Driven: Character
Loveable characters: Yes
Diverse cast of characters: No
Flaws of characters a main focus: Yes

I enjoyed the book. I thought the leads were fine but they weren’t my favorites from Briar U. I really liked Brenna in Summer’s book so I wanted a bit more. I really liked the last 25% of the book. The vulnerability and the angst and the way she repaired her relationship with her father was so heartwarming. I thought Brenna’s goals about going into sports journalism was so cool and I liked her character more as the story went on. I also liked that Hollis got his own redemption and girlfriend sideplot.
though I wish his girlfriend wasn’t constantly classified as annoying or weird while being the only poc. I wish we had more likable moments with her so I could grow to like her more.
also Fitz and Summer were cute.
