"Another great read from Emma Lord! The book starts with an epic miscommunication between Andie & Connor that led them each to transfer to each other's previous college. The start the semester with plans to reunite the following fall, but as the weeks go by, new relationships develop, friendships grow, and betrayals come to light.<br/><br/>While this does not supplant Tweet Cute as my favorite novel by this author, this is a close second! This is a fun and engaging New Adult read that many will be able to connect with."
