Cute and easy read to break up some of my more intense readings. Felt like the ending stretched on a little too long but overall it was good!

The Good Girl Complex was one of those books that I flew through in just a few sittings. I enjoyed it, it was fun, entertaining, and easy to get into — even though, yes, it was very predictable.

From fairly early on, I could already guess where the story was going and how things would play out. There were no big surprises or shocking twists, but somehow that didn’t completely ruin the experience for me. The book still delivered exactly what it promised: a light, drama-filled romance with tension, secrets, and just enough angst to keep the pages turning.

I found it to be a great “turn-your-brain-off” read. While it doesn’t break any new ground in terms of plot or tropes, it’s still enjoyable if you’re in the mood for something fast paced and entertaining.

Enjoyed wrapping up the series with this one

[Paige · Rating 3 out of 5]

This was okay, I wanted a light quick read and this was exactly that. It’s not mind blowing or impressive by any means, in fact it reminded me quite a lot of ‘After’, but it was enjoyable.

3 separate stories about 6 people who all have horrible parents and how they overcome their horrible experiences with their horrible parents and find love despite their horrible parents. The third book was the best and most endearing and had one set of decent parents.

I didn't know I read Good Girl Complex until I read it again thinking I haven't read it. I love Elle Kennedy because of the Briar U and Off-Campus series. But this doesn't give. I can't remember anything from it.

[Bree Stapleton · Rating 3 out of 5]

Took me a little longer to finish it as it got a bit boring towards the end and ended a bit abruptly for my liking
