I got this one as an ARC through Book Sirens, and I don’t regret it one bit. Tori and Rhett, a pair that have had chemistry since they dated in high school, have an agreement- they can be together as FWB, but only when he’s home from college. Tori has reservations that do not let her love openly, and as such, she can only handle being with Rhett if she’s essentially the other woman. I found the idea that Rhett was voluntarily cheating to be a bit irksome, but it’s also hard to stay mad as you get to know the characters. While I won’t spoil it, I will say that Tori has issues; she isn’t just someone with a home wrecker fetish or anything like that (I know I was iffy when I initially found out there was a girlfriend). Things definitely get steamy every time they get together; this one is about 80% storyline, 20% smut. Overall, I’d recommend this one if you’re okay with cliffhangers (as there is a book two).

It had handy advice. This is a solid book for someone considering teaching, especially if they do not have teachers in the family. This offers a basic insight into a variety of topics, so it gives credential students a place to begin their research

Let me start by noting that there is nothing inherently wrong about the book- it just didn’t suck me in. This was one book I found that I never really thought about whenever I closed it; I prefer what I’m reading to leave me with something to think about. Although this is probably great for fans of whodunnits, I found the whole thing to be extremely predictable. I also did not like that there was 4 different narrators, and some narrators were written in third person rather than first like the majority. Every one of the “guests” was a fairly shitty person, so this book would serve best for people who like to read from a villain or dislikable character’s perspective
