Review: Undecided by Julianna Keyes

****4 Stars****
 
 
Nora Kincaid was a party girl she spent her first year of college rebelling and trying to be memorable. Her second year she needed to start over and be invisible again. Turns out she was never as memorable as she thought she was.
Crosbie Lucas and Kellan McVey are the two hottest and most popular guys in school, Nora meets them both when going to an apartment interview and although she met Kellan in a intimate way at a party and seen has Crosbie a...
round at those same parties neither remember her. At first this upsets her then she see's the blessing in it and spends the rest of the story trying to hide that year where she became the wild child.
I actually really liked this book and would happily read it again. Kellan and Crosbie seem like the kind of guys you could be friends with in real life. This book to me is about Nora learning to love herself for who she really is not who she wishes she was or even pretended to be and her developing relationships with both Crosbie and Kellan make her see this. The characters interactions had me laughing out loud in places and the guys made for some good eye candy (that could just be my wild imagination though). Even the supporting characters were good and added depth to the story.
I only have a couple of things that niggled at me while reading, one was the random missing words, it wasn't enough that you couldn't follow the sentence but still niggly just the same. Secondly there were instances where information was repeated as if it was never revealed in the first place, that I have to admit confused me at times but not enough to ruin the book for me. A solid 4 stars.

Nora Kincaid has one goal for her second year of college: be invisible. Last year’s all-party-no-study strategy resulted in three failed classes and two criminal charges, and if she messes up again she’ll lose her scholarship. But there’s one problem with her plan for invisibility, and his name is Crosbie Lucas: infamous party king, general hellraiser…and her new roommate’s best friend.

Crosbie’s reckless reputation and well-known sexcapades aren’t part of Nora’s studious new strategy, but as she’s quickly learning, her new plan is also really boring. When Crosbie’s unexpected gestures of friendship pull her head out of her books long enough to see past his cocky veneer, she’s surprised to find a flawed and funny guy beneath it all. The muscles don’t hurt, either.

But as Nora starts to fall for Crosbie, the weight of one of last year’s bad decisions grows even heavier. Because three failing grades and two misdemeanors are nothing compared to the one big secret she’s hiding…
