First and Goal

This book has been on my radar for quite awhile and I finally got to read it. I have to say it was a lot different than I expected it to be, but in a good way. I loved Eva and Rob. Especially the prologue reading about them meeting one another the first day of Freshman year. I really hoped we would read they became the best of friends, but life happened. We start at the beginning of senior year and they end up partners in biology. Things have happened and Eva doesn't trust guys that much. Especially jocks. Rob hasn't had the easiest time in highschool with a lot of rumors going around that aren't true. The same is the case for Eva. Rob has always felt something for he, but can he change her mind and will the Bio Effect influence them at all? It was an interesting journey to read and I liked that there wasn't insta love. The trust really had to grow and it turned in to a good friendship! I haven't read development like that in quite some time. This book also covers what happens a lot in high school. How rumors are spread and how much it really changes someone's life. Whether true or not, gossip is pretty damaging. I really wish kids these days would realize that! The only reason this book didn't get five stars was because I missed a little interaction between Eva and her friends and more of their home life at times. The way this book ended though makes me want the second book right away! More descriptive review to come on thebookdutchesses.wordpress.com
