i don’t wanna judge but why did the author think it was a good idea to write another book in this series?? this was absolutely unnecessary, boring and i really was disgusted by what the guys did to that poor girl i seriously wanted to dnf this book so bad, i mean the first book wasn’t good but it was better than this, should have been a standalone book

*SPOILERS AHEAD!!!!* _______________ Fuck, I feel so led on by Logan. He was so perfect, golden retriever vibe, he was so whipped for Hadley. I feel like an idiot. He turned out to be such an asshole. I hate that. I wish I remembered anything that happened in The Cheerleaders, because that would've made this book a lot easier to understand. I could not remember or catch on to any of the names of the dancers and keep their stories in line in my head, even though I really wanted to make sense of things. All in all, the book was amazing, and I feel just as played as our main character by the behaviour of these football boys.
