Flo's Review
I had a whirlwind relationship with the Slammed trilogy. I immediately fell in love with Slammed when I read it on a flight home, and I immediately checked out Point of Retreat from the library. I got through that in about 24 hours and read This Girl in the span of one evening.

Simply, This Girl is the retelling of the Slammed from Will's point of view. I enjoyed it. It was nice to see the relationship between Julia and Will, which was unbeknownst to Lake. I also really liked knowing Will's thoughts on the unfolding events. We knew a lot from Slammed because he was always good about talking to Lake, but this book gave us more. Also, from a literary standpoint, I liked how the retelling was set in their honeymoon, as it allowed for Will and Lake to really get everything out on the table before starting their life together. This a cute, fast read and quite enjoyable if you enjoyed Slammed.

That being said, Slammed is still my favorite  of the three by far. That book blew me away, while the Point of Retreat and This Girl were just entertaining. Maybe because Slammed had the most poetry? I think that's one reason. Anyway, I love these characters, but it is definitely time to let them go.
