2019 Freshman Series Challenge

Good Morning my loves

I'm trying to re-read this series that I loved when I was younger.  I think of these as the basis for what "new adult" is.  Linda Cooney's series has been my favorite for years and I can't wait to re-read and see how the stories have held up.

In no particular order here are all the books. I have 27 to read from the series:

To Be Read: 27

Read in 2019:

• Freshman Lies
• Feud
• Games
• Choices
• Flames
• Noel
• Freedom
• Guys
• Summer
• Obsession
• Secrets
• Loves
• Dreams
• Nights
• Promises
• Fling
• Changes
• Schemes
• Follies
• Dorm
• Breakup
• Heat
• Rivals

And the series that started it all the Class of 88 and 89 Freshman, Sophmore, Junior and Senior years.

I can't wait, for me, this is a reminder of Degrassi before it sucked, a hint of Felicity, and A Different World all rolled into one. I loved the drama of the story and glimpse of what I thought college might be like (I'm still waiting for half that drama lol) but it was a good series that highlighted some of the stresses, pitfalls, and dangers that college had. And it made me so eager to experience it all.  I can't wait to see how this series holds up to my memories.

Have you read this series?? Would you like to know how it holds up?/ Make sure to check back each month as I share more about the series and my progress into it.  Let me know if you have any book you read as a kid ( and no harry potter doesn't count we know that one holds up) that made you excited about school or some wonderful adventure.

Share int he comments my love and of course, I will see you tomorrow
Happy Reading my loves
