Great!

It was great but it was a little to nerve racking. I couldn't put it down I even got in trouble for reading it to much in class.

Serious issues...

The main reason why I enjoy the University series so much, is because it seems to allow the development of serious issues such as racism, date rape, sex, and so on. This particular book explores the notion of date rape and is developed particularly well with Jessica falling for handsome and athletic James Montegomery, a guy who seems too good to be true. Unfortunately, it seems that James is a guy with a few skeletons in his closet and it's up to Elizabeth to reveal the truth to Jessica before it's too late.

I would recomend this to every young woman out there!

It is a really good book and deals with some really importantissues, such as date rape, and the right to say no. I think that it'sbetter for older readers, 15-18 or less, depending on how mature you are. I can't really put what I want to say in words, but it is really important to me besides a good read. It helps remind me about my right to say "no" to sex.
