Talk:High School Story: Class Act/@comment-34296592-20181113170501

I really don't get the massive amount of hate this book gets. I like it. Sure, it has flaws like every other book, but I like it. More than the original series actually. (don't throw something at me!) I know a lot of people miss the original series, but really.. I often felt it was too one-note. It was pretty much always about the rivalry with Hearst High. Sure, there was rivalry between the schools, and that didn't bother me itself. The main issue for me was how it was portrayed. It took a lot of time from the story. Especially in the third book. If I could rename the original series, I would call it "Berry High, and all the reasons we hate Hearst". At the end of the series, I was just too tired of reading about the rivalry. It wasn't engaging anymore. For me, it was just tiresome. I would like to learn more about Berry High, and not only about its hate for Hearst.

Of coure, everyone is allowed to have their own opinion. This is mine.
