Jaycee DeLorenzo

DNF'd at 15%, start of Chapter 4

There isn't necessarily anything bad with this book, I think it's just that there isn't anything new with this book. It comes across as generic and cliche (which the BFF to lovers trope often is) and I just couldn't get into it.

Ivy and Ian are your typical BFFs who have that sexual tension lying underneath their relationship but are too oblivious to clue in. I do enjoy their banter but Ian's alpha attitude and double standards were a little too much for me.

And speaking of double-standards, Ivy's actions towards another female character really, really irked me the wrong way and I think that's why my patience for this book ran out at the 15% mark. Ivy helps run a campus sex/relationship radio show that promotes healthy sexuality. She herself practices casual sex BUT she is the first to "slut-shame" the females who come up to flirt with Ian. Excuse me? How does that make any sense? Why can't these other girls go after who they want and what truly gives you the right to shame them for doing something you yourself practice?

It really made angry. I hate how this "every-girl-for-herself" attitude it constantly thrown into books.

UGH.
