This is a cute YA academic rivals story. Sadie and Seb grew up together, but now they’re competing for the same spot on the school newspaper. Sadie is frustrated because she’s competed with Seb all through high school and thought she’d get a break in college. I could feel her frustration just oozing off the page. It was so real and I loved it. The banter between Sadie and Seb was great. I chuckled a few times while reading this which is always a nice treat. The chemistry between the two was good, however I think I needed a little something more for it to be believable. It’s not that it was bad, I was just looking for a little more I guess. The characters did feel age appropriate. Some of their decisions made me roll my eyes but, they’re barely adults so it makes sense.

If you’re looking for a fun young adult college romance, then check this one out.
