Hi, my name’s Annie Clark, and I’ve managed to flip my quiet, nerdy, single life completely upside down. First, I recently figured out that I’m bisexual. Second, Eve Frederick, star softball player and my ultimate crush, asked me out on a date. Third, she rocked my world, and now I can’t stop thinking I want more... even though Eve is not into relationships. And to top it all off, someone took a private video of us and is threatening to make it public. It’s enough to make me want to go back to hiding out in my dorm room—but only if I can take Eve with me.

Hard Drive

Hard Drive was a quick and simple read!
Let's set the mood here : this novel is a new adult saphic romance with a little smut and a good enough amount of softball. The nerd and jock trope worked pretty well in this [lesbian romance] context. It was pretty fr'esh and the setup was kind of unexpected *however* everything was a bit cliché in my opinion (and most of the lesbian romances I've read are already very stereotypical...), pretty uneventful and the rythm wasn't as good as I would expect it to be, even for romance (where it can have less impact than let's say an action packed high fantasy novel).
I think the author (and this series) has a lot of potential and there is still room to improve. There was a good rep (I was suprised, in good!) for a quick romance but perhaps what I liked the most was how the main character's anxiety has been portrayed. I think it's been very well handled (dealing with a similar type of anxiety myself), so bravo for that.
Overall a good quick read if you have a few hours to kill but there is still room for improvement.
Thank you NetGalley and Entagled for this free ARC that I reviewed with my honest opinion.
