I have received this ARC from NetGalley for an honest review.
Freshmen was a really cute book. It's a dual POV from Luke and Phoebe and it's about their first year at college. Their experiences are way different than my time in college.. especially my Freshmen year. I went to about 3 colleges: The first, was out of state and felt like it was basically a community college than a university. The second, was actually a community college in my home town and was extremely easy. Third, and my last switch-a-roo, was again in the same state but a bit a drive. It definitely felt like I was at a real college but in a way I also wasn't really prepared for it due to my first two college experiences. I had to shift gears pretty early on because my usual studying and not taking habits sucked ass.
Back to the book, I loved Luke and Phoebe! They were basically friendship goals! Now I will admit that it took me a while to start to like Luke. However, it was the complete opposite with Phoebe! I loved the girl and the friendships she made while at school were real and genuine. I laughed so hard when her and Luke signed up for Quidditch because it does exist in colleges. Every time I saw someone on a broomstick while walking on campus I couldn't stop myself from laughing so hard. No, I didn't sign up for it but I did enjoy watching the games.
Besides learning to love Luke and Phoebe and watching them grow throughout the book - it was hilarious! I couldn't stop laughing from one scene to another. Basically everything was realistic in this book. One night stands to being homesick is what college kids go through. Now I'm not saying everyone goes through one night stands.. but they do get homesick.
Overall, I really enjoyed this book. I feel like I breezed through it once I found it on my kindle. I also really loved Tom and Lucy's writing style. I will definitely be looking into more of their books in the future!
