Read this for my IRL book club & it‘s not bad, it just doesn‘t stand out from other books about a young college woman who starts an affair with her married writing professor only to see most everything get complicated really fast. It‘s a familiar story & while it addresses serious issues—power dynamics, consent, assault, integrity, jealousy—the execution is not as good as I hoped. Not a fav of mine unlike my friends who loved & recommended it.

Title update: My Last Innocent — and incredibly boring — year.

The best thing about this book is the cover.

I preordered this coming of age story because I liked the cover and it sounded interesting. I‘m glad I did because I really liked the story and the characters. I would‘ve finished sooner but I haven‘t been getting much reading time lately.
⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️

3⭐️ This started well; I like to be inside campus story set in 1998, and I‘m just a year younger than the protagonist Isabel Rosen. So many tangents in this book but the base is her two sexual relationships with a fellow student and her prof. I wish the author just focused and dug deeper on one or two topics, because her effort to cover everything made the last quarter of the book messy and rushed.

I guess this is an advice for me 😃

Ruthiella Me too. But I can‘t do it. I MUST UNDERSTAND! 😂 2y
sisilia Same here @Ruthiella 😆 2y
Soubhiville Good advice! It‘s like meditation- telling me to not think about anything makes me think about EVERYTHING! 🤣 2y
Soubhiville @Eyelit you may appreciate this advice… 😘 2y
sisilia @Soubhiville I‘m very bad at meditation 😩 2y

Just started this book and the timeline is similar to mine. I was in my third year of uni in 1998 😎 #onceuponatime

JamieArc I‘ve been intrigued by this one. I‘m hoping to get to it soon! 2y

This surprised me. I thought it would be like my My Dark Vanessa but the teacher student relationship is way more consensual than any of the narrator‘s other romances plus the writing is so good that it also stands alone as a really intriguing detailed story about a girl‘s senior year at college.

A new release that caught my attention. Libby said I have to wait 10 weeks for this 😃

This is a debut novel about college life that is both incredible and prescient. Isabel goes off to school with no idea of the joys—and horrors—lurking on campus. This is one of those books that Florin describes as “crawling inside” and “taking up residence” in your soul. It‘s both heartbreaking and heartwarming!
