After (1) (The After Series)
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?

I remember reading it back in the old days when Wattpad was mainstream and this series only had two books (which were yet to be published officially ). This book is absolutely a shizshow, I have never hated any book as much as I hated this book, it has all the cringe troupes some could ask for 'not like other girls' 'playboy/pure virginal girl' 'all the other women are slut' and some more that I don't remember exactly. after I got to 80% I thought yep this is the queue for me to leave Wattpad forever and I am glad I did.
-1000 stars out of 5 stars, I wish I could delete it from my brain. It has no redeeming qualities whatsoever.

Just catching up on all the brain-rot I didn’t get as a teenager. Read this to see if it’s as bad as they say, and it didn’t even take 10 pages for me to realize that it’s even worse. I feel bad for the fourteen-year-old minds this has once lived in, and I’ve surely aged ten years because of the constant frown on my face. At times, I dared myself to think that maybe it could redeem itself at least a little (I feel like the romantic emotions and inner monologue were written quite well), but then Hardin opens his mouth and ruins it all. If this were a character study about horrible men—no, boys—and naive girls who are just as horrible in their own way, this would be a five-star read.
Oh, and “that dress is so virginal-looking” is just a clinical thing to say…
