Experience Anna Todd’s million-copy-selling story that started it all.
Tessa goes off to college with a dependable boyfriend waiting at home and her life and career neatly planned out. On her first day on campus, everything shifts when she encounters Hardin. With his disheveled brown locks, cocky British charm, and a canvas of tattoos, he’s a stark departure from her familiar world.
But Hardin’s rudeness borders on cruelty, and Tessa resolves to hate him. At least until they share a charged moment alone—and suddenly, Tessa is questioning everything she’s ever known about herself.
Despite his hot-and-cold attitude, Tessa is drawn to uncover the hidden layers within Hardin. In the midst of her newfound independence and electrifying uncertainty, Tessa’s connection with Hardin feels like the passionate love she’s been looking for. With her carefully laid plans forever disrupted, what comes after?

The characters are awful, co-dependent and very much unlikable. I kept waiting for some redeeming plot point or a change in character trait, but was extremely disappointed. I only read the book after seeing the movie available on Netflix. Now I know to avoid the movie.
This book was good and bad at the same time. Tessa made so many bad choices and I found myself screaming at the audiobook while I was driving! It is way more sexually intense in the book than the movie. It was so additive though that I couldn’t put it down. I absolutely love Hardin because he really is a sweet guy just has a hard life. I recommend this book!
