4.0

Steamy, hilarious, and packed with heart, The Charlie Method by Elle Kennedy is a wild ride from start to finish! This third installment in the Campus Diaries series brings us a heroine living a double life, two swoon-worthy hockey players, and a whole lot of tension—both on and off the ice.

Charlie (aka Charlotte) is smart, bold, and unapologetically herself but at the same time also deeply insecure and anxious, whether she’s excelling in STEM or pushing the limits of her alter ego. Will and Beckett bring their own brand of charm, complications, and undeniable chemistry. Their dynamic? Off. The. Charts. Kennedy delivers her signature mix of spice and emotional depth, making this book impossible to put down.

While the angst and external pressures kept me hooked, I did feel like certain conflicts wrapped up a bit too quickly. Still, the sizzling romance and heartfelt growth made it an addictive read. Fans of Off-Campus and Briar U—you’re in for a treat!

Thank you to NetGalley, Little, Brown Book Group UK, and Elle Kennedy for the ARC! 💙🏒
