The Ivy by Lauren Kunze and Rina Onur

The Ivy is full of cliche characters. The writing is just average. The storyline is rather simple and the characters are not likable. There is a pretty high degree of predictability. The characters and situations are not good enough to keep you full interested. There are small aspects of the book that I did enjoy but not enough to own the book. I will read the sequel in hopes that the characters and storyline is improved because I really want to like this series. 

Grade: C 

 Synopsis [B&N] Congratulations! You have been admitted to the most prestigious university in the world. Now what are you going to do? Callie Andrews may not have money or connections or the right clothes, and she may have way too many complications in her love life, what with— Gregory the guy she loves to hate Evan the guy she'd love to forget Clint the guy she'd love to love and Matt the guy she really should love —all vying for her attention. But she has three fantastic roommates (best friends or her worst nightmare?) and a wholesome California-girl reputation (oops) and brains and beauty and big, big dreams. Will it be enough to help her survive freshman year at Harvard?
