I received an ARC from the author in exchange for an honest review. Being an old-ish lady who went to college as an adult, for the first third of the book I had a bit of trouble relating to the college kids and their on-campus lifestyle. (That's totally my problem!) In fact, I really didn't think much of the obvious love interest and was rooting for the heroine to ignore her hormones and tell the jerk to, um, go away. However, I persevered, and by mid-book the various characters got their heads screwed on straight and I was hooked. Now I have to read _Complicated Creatures_ and find out what happened to them all after college!

So, I'm knocking off a star because I didn't personally enjoy the beginning very much, and because of a number of annoying typos that were probably missed by SpellChecker...do instead of to, he instead of her, etc. But by the end of the book I loved the characters, and that's what keeps me going back to an author's work -- the characters.
