i totally agree with you how there no moment of bonding or showing love between belly and conrad, like its just everyone know they are end game but ya there are no moments to root for them.
The third book was also so disappointing for me! I loved the tv series and I wanted so bad to know what would happen. So I read the whole trilogy and was actually so frustrated with the characters development and depth. They did a wonderful job with the tv series. I love Conrad and Belly there, so I get exactly what you mean. I feel like they never gave us a reason as to why Conrad was acting the way he did :(
I just finished this 3rd book and.. It feels like a total character assassination of Jeremiah!! One aspect to this is obviously that we don’t get his perspective in this book, only Belly’s and Conrad’s, but I also simply don’t believe the way he acts sometimes. It doesn’t make sense for his character! He was always very caring and perceptive and could basically read every need, worry and wish from everyone’s eyes, especially Belly’s. But in this book: nothing. And I get it, at the end of the day he’s a teenage boy in a frat house, there is a lot of room to get distracted. I still would’ve loved his perspective cause I’m sure that Belly is definitely an unreliable narrator (as are the boys but puzzled together, we might have gotten the truth). Also, the ending felt way too rushed for me. It should’ve either ended the day of the planned wedding after Jere and Belly broke up and then she runs out and calls Conrad or something and the reader can think to themselves what might have happened in the future, or the book should’ve went on for another 2-3 chapters and shown us the “aftermath” and how Belly and Con became close again or something and THEN they can do the time jump… Loved the first two books and became Team Jeremiah, watched the show which confirmed my love for Jeremiah, but then the third book-??? It felt like the author was set on Conrad and Belly being the OTP and noticed towards the end that the story wasn’t going there and had to make some weird changes to make the OTP happen.. The whole Jere & Belly wedding was a super super weird storyline and didn’t make sense for both of their characters at all in my opinion… Was still a good read!

Glad you agree!
I just finished this book and I feel gutted 😭 happy but something else too. I didn’t expect this ending really at all.

Didn’t like the ending.
