Music is the only form of communication Connor Owens controls. No matter how badly he wishes to fit in, friendly banter and casual conversations have never been his thing. College is yet another social universe he has no clue how to navigate—until he meets Jared, a football player with chestnut eyes...
Connor made my heart ache nearly from the first page through the end. This book is his journey through freshman year of college. He's navigating the already difficult waters of being in college compounded by paralyzing shyness and anxiety. The story is told from his 3rd person POV, and it's great. I...
So for more than 1/2 the book, I really didn't like Jared. He annoyed me, he was a bit shifty and I hated the way he treated Connor. It pissed me off. But I guess he's not so bad. He was just lost and trying to figure out who he is. Which is fine. But maybe I would have been a bit more sympathetic t...
Re-read 6/11/14 for the MM Romance Group Re-romancing the Faves Challenge. I stil greatly enjoyed this book. I sympathized with Connor. I was never as painfully shy as he was, but even to this day, I'm not big on being thrown into a group of people, no matter how big or small, and being expected ...
2,5 starsI always like to read about socially awkward people. It just appeals to the little place inside myself that tells me I am still that socially awkward person myself.But for every socially inept person there has to be someone who is patient and full of love to balance this out. And that bring...
I was bored to tears with this.Sorry but not sorry, I couldn't enjoy this. Boredom, pure boredom. Dull and empty. Tedious and uninteresting. I'm not even mad! I need to feel the MCs' lives are exciting in all their mediocrity. But I couldn't connect with them in any form. I couldn't understand why t...
Wow, I adored this. I'm so impressed with this book. Good writing and very deep characters who grew and changed during the course of the story. The romance was sweet, but I'm especially impressed at Connor and Jared's coming out stories. So often in these kinds of books the hard stuff about comin...
Mmmm. Another college, first time romance book and another hit for me. Connor is the shy guy at college, the one who can barely utter his own name without tripping over his tongue who earns a little extra money tutoring and Jared is the popular football player who needs a little extra tuition. JAred...
A good book of a jock and his tutor... just live 90% of the YA stuff I've read this year. It's not the author's fault that I've read this same story too many times now, but there is absolutely nothing new or inspiring. The characters were good, although I wish Connor wasn't so completely lacking i...
