What I liked
- I appreciated that Violet called out some of the rich-person bullshit that was going on in this school. I don't really know how you teach socioeconomic in a way that shows rich people as the good guys but I'm glad she thought it was all stupid.
- I liked all the roles of the characters in this book. The main characters were good as were the side characters. Yes, some of them were a little OTT but generally, they kept me interested.
What I didn't like
- This whole book felt a little under-researched to me. The college in this book seemed so much more like a high school. Violet had to wear a uniform, she had no control over her schedule, and everyone acted like high school students. No one ever talked about what they were majoring in or anything. It was just weird and they all seemed to go to class at the same time which is also something that doesn't happen in college. Violet also was sent to this school when classes had already started which was weird. Also, I feel like it would be more likely to be called football in the future rather than soccer given that most of the world right now calls it football.
- I didn't like that we didn't get to learn really anything about Violets history before this school. She just had a tragic backstory that was alluded to that we knew almost nothing about.
- Violets relationship with Alex seemed to develop out of nowhere for me. I saw no reason she would be interested in him besides him just declaring that she was his future wife and because of that, I really did not care about their relationship.
I gave this 3 stars because this was an entertaining read and I was intrigued enough to maybe read the sequel. However, based on the rating of this book, I didn't like it as much as a lot of people and as I described, I had some problems with this one. (
