3⭐️
decent short story but slightly unnecessary and underwhelming

[Holly Pickens]

A Christmas book in June isn’t ideal, but I wanted to read this short story and follow Leighton around a little bit more. It’s silly, it’s not logical, but it’s not bad. I would not have enjoyed this had it been a regular length novel, but 3 stars for what it was.

[Scarlett Howe]

This was such a fun silly short story thriller. Honestly, this is one of the first short stories I’ve read that actually felt like a full book, I don’t know whether it was just me. I feel like I can’t give it a higher rating because of how short it was but I definitely like Phynleys Greek row related books the most so far.

JUST FINISHED. Absolutely loved it and wish it had been longer!! Def recommend for a holiday read

nathan and leighton endgame 💗💗💗

[Angie Simmons]

Easy to read, the plot was okay, but there were some errors that pulled me out of the story. One made me giggle- "The land that condescends down from the road at this pull off...." (ch. 21 p105) I know she meant descends, and I think I was slap happy, but it just cracked me up to think of the land being condescending.

love this author and her short, but entertaining thrillers. i don’t think i would love this if it were a normal length book. can’t wait for the next 2 books

3.5 stars, it was good and a interesting short story to read right after greek row. although i felt like it could’ve touched up on leighton’s relationships with her peers a bit more. the events that happened in greek row were kinda skimmed over and it wasn’t very satisfying transitioning into this particular story, considering it happens a few months later. the plot twist could’ve been stronger if she layed the suspicion on mackenzie for a bit longer. but yet again it is meant to be a short story so. overall i enjoyed it :p

Short novella.
How is it possible this sorority keeps giving bids to psychopaths and they are always friends with leighton.

I almost liked the twist of this one better than the first. If this one had been longer and more detailed, I might've preferred this one!

For some reason I was not expecting that twist at all. When I looked back on the details, especially about the whole "moving from Chicago" thing I realized I should've expected it, but I'm glad I didn't see it coming. For a minute, I thought Nathan had done something!

Can't wait for more from this author. 10/10

Okay I’m usually not a fan of novellas but his WOWED me? Yes—I did read a Christmas novella in July, but regardless I still loved it and plan to reread in December.

But anyways, the plot twist was quite amazing and the book itself was so nicely paced and has great characters and dialogue. I didn’t expect anything that happened next and overall it was a great novella.

Anticipating Rush Week and Par On The Course!

I wish this was so much longer!!! I loved Greek Row and was so happy to see this one. It was very hooking per usual and I loved every little turn. The ending felt a little rushed but I knew it was a short story and it had to wrap up! I didn’t guess the little clues and the ending so a super fun read and can’t wait for the spring break continuation!!

[Gamana]

I’m the type of person to want something short to read then accidentally read the sequel to a book. Overall this book was pretty good, it took me a while to really getting into it but when I did it really started picking up and the plot twist was really good I was almost disappointed but my disappointment quickly vanished.

[Rheagan Moore]

This was good!! I definitely was not expecting the ending, I wasn’t even close. Overall this was an easy thriller read and a fun sequel to the first book! I’ve seen so many reviews taking away stars for the book being too short which is crazy because it’s a short story lol. I actually liked this book being short because it was very to the point! If you liked Greek Row definitely pick this up!

Eu não esperava muita coisa sobre esse livro, mas entre o primeiro dessa serie e esse, acho que prefiro esse.

Não considerei um plot extremamente revelador, no começo já tinha desconfiado um pouco da personagem, principalmente do motivo pelo qual ela falava que tinha se mudado, mas, não posso negar que o plot foi bem melhor que o primeiro. Por mais que não tenha sido bem executado.

[Marlee Brown]

3.25⭐️ I enjoyed this short story and it literally took me like an hour to read! I really loved seeing the characters from the first Greek Row and the plot was interesting to follow. I will say I wish it was longer, but I get that it was supposed to be a short read!

[Kylie Kipfer]

I thought I figured it out halfway through.. then she found them and I was like oh it was just an accident and was disappointed.. then 10 pages later I realized I had figured it out halfway through, still loved it though

[Landon Holder]

The book was short, but good. Liv you’re psycho, and I thought her and Nathan died, bc they were with each other, and something bad happened. But I did not think liv would attempt to kill Nathan bc she didn’t get what she wanted. I love this book. So excited for the next book in this series!!

[lydia]

Very good for a short story! The twist at the end was also super good! Leighton is very likable and the way she describes things is so relatable and funny. It felt a bit underwhelming at times, but for what it is it was sufficient! Would love to read more from Phynley 🩷

[jill]

just finished greek row and wanted to jump into this asap! unfortunately it fell kind of flat for me- i think it was a little unnecessary and unrealistic for the plot. i also think leighton turned into an entirely new and irritable character i started to dislike. interesting wrap up for sure

[Kenedy Freedman]

There’s 2 diff versions of this on Goodreads so I hope I’m on the right one.. LOVE THIS ONE TOO!!
Just as good as the first and such an easy read!

[Genie]

Great short read for Christmas. Read it on my flight. Enjoyed!

[sabrina grace]

such a fun cute quick read !! felt so good to be back on cabot university !

[Madison]

SO GOOD!!! Plot twist really got me.

[Morgan Jacobson]

So good! Loved this fun, quick story sequel! Definitely not what I thought and I had so many theories that were all wrong lol

[Hannah]

This book was cute!! I loved seeing more of the characters. I will say, Leighton has a terrible judge of character when it comes to friends...

[mols]

so quick and fun

[chloe]

it was a good novella, i definitely enjoyed greek row better but the plot twist was really good!
