1.0

Based on the blurb, I thought I'd love this, but sadly, I did not. The beginning was really slow, and I had trouble getting into it. I did like Renee and Callum together originally, but I ended up hating both of them and think they'd be better with other people after everything that happened. I know how everything looked to Callum, but to not even listen or care when Renee said she blacked out and didn't know what happened? Why was he not upset or wondering if she was drugged? And the way he treated her, and yet she just kept going back for more and trying to force him back into a relationship with her? WHY?! So frustrating! He was sleeping with everyone on campus and even got a bj from your roommate and made sure you got to see it, and yet you still keep following him to parties and trying to talk to him and have sex with him?! Then once the true story comes out, you put up the tiniest bit of a fight but rollover anyway because you love him. It was great that Callum finally realized he was just as much to blame for their situation because of his behavior when they got to college, but he didn't do nearly enough to redeem himself in my eyes. I would have preferred Renee end up with someone else (not Mike).
