2.75

It read more like a ya than a na romance and Tate and Cooper had their cute moments (esp the notes) and the emphasis on choosing a career was nice to give the characters direction
BUT
1. The tik tok thing was so funny to me and Cooper was giving Bryce Hall 2020 energy so- (it was a big no)
2. The miscommunication at the end please- and when he removed her name and red heart from his Instagram bio I was dying like why was this mentioned
3. Spilling his guts on tik tok INSTEAD OF TALKING TO HER and the whole college being invested- ok.
