I found Sabrina to be a little annoying at times with her unwillingness to try a relationship. Tucker is amazing. I also wish some of the antagonists would be put in their place.  I would like to have some of the plot lines to be expanded on. 

Great message and lovely book overall.

5.0

Ever since I've started reading the Off-Campus series by Elle Kennedy this year, I have never thought "There's no way Kennedy could top these two characters as a couple". As much as I have done every time I open the next book in the series. Then the next. Then the next.

But every time, she somehow succeeds in doing so.

  

Spoiler

Favourite relationship? Hannah and Garrett--no brainer there.

Favourite Guy? Toss-up between Fitzy and Beau (RIP King. You were my husband throughout the series and I hoped you would have gotten your own book.)

How could you, Kennedy?

Favourite Girl? Definitel Grace. What a GirlBoss. Love her so much <3

Once again Elle Kennedy gives us offensive portrayal of queer women and people of color + a solid dose of sexism and reinforcing stupid gender norms.

5.0

“My goal, once upon a time, was to succeed. I didn’t realize that success wasn’t grades or scholarships or achievements, but the people I was lucky enough to have in my life.”

Honestly I liked this one more than 2 &3. Book one is still my favorite though. Normally I hate the pregnancy trope, but this was done right in my opinion. I also liked that Sabrina was so independent and focused on doing things for herself. Her tenacity and stubbornness were so easy to relate to.
