My Goodreads friends have given this an average of 4.4 stars so yikes.

He chose Teddy for the band because he “likes imperfect people” okay.

like “I’m not autistic, but I’m not normal either”.

It’s a little weird that she’s still in high school though.

The relationship between the 18-year-old and the 25-year-old actually doesn’t bother me.

Okay, I’m a little iffy about a lot of what’s happening here.

(Only that I feel a little weird that the love interest has the same name as my three-year-old nephew, yikes.).

The first quarter really isn’t that bad.

154 thoughts I had while reading Very Bad Things: Obviously, I’m spoiling the whole book (so maybe don’t look if you’re planning to read it) and since this is basically just my running commentary as I was reading, there’s quite a bit of swearing. I’m putting this whole thing under a spoiler tag, so just click below to see allll my thoughts.

It’s been awhile since I’ve done an unconventional review, but I think this book is best discussed in bullet point form. In this case, I’m not sure if I read a different book than everybody else or if I’m just really picky or if something’s the matter with me… but what the heck did I just read.

So… typically, when I see literally every person that I follow on Goodreads raving about a book, it means that the book is actually good. Welcome to Briarcrest Academy…where sometimes, the best things in life are Very Bad Things. He resists the pull of their attraction, hung up on their six year age difference.Īs they struggle to stay away from each other, secrets will be revealed, tempers will flare, and hearts will be broken. His gym and his brother are all he cares about…until he meets Nora. When it comes to girls, twenty-five-year-old Leo Tate has one rule: never fall in love. Leaving behind her million-dollar mansion and Jimmy Choos, she becomes a girl hell-bent on pushing the limits with alcohol, drugs, and meaningless sex. She’s an accomplished pianist, a Texas beauty queen, and on her way to Princeton after high school. Born into a life of privilege and secrets, Nora Blakely has everything any nineteen-year-old girl could desire.
