Review:
I have to admit I was expecting more from this book. The first two in this series were solid enjoyable reads, the third was a little iffy but this one felt so disjointed. Call spends far too much time worrying about whether a girl likes him which in the grand scheme of things is really not something of a priority. It really felt like a bad teen drama in those moments, which happened far too frequently. I know this books takes place over a much shorter time period than the others but I really hope the next, and I believe final, book can redeem it all.

I gave this book 3 out of 5 stars.
