The more I think about it, the more I realize I like the later books in the The Freshman, et al series better than the earlier ones. My favorite (non mini-short story, as I like most of those that I've read better than the entire rest of the series) is The Freshman, Book 4. Second comes as The Sophomore, Book 2. Third, which consider how much it was bashed came as a surprise to me, was The Junior, Book 1. After that it's probably a tie between The Freshman, Book 1 and The Sopomore, Book 1. Last place goes to The Freshman, Book 3 with The Freshman, Book 2 coming in close second to last. The books I dislike have their good points, conversations with Vasquez and visiting his grave being two of those.

Having recently reread the first half of the series (and continuing on), The Freshman, Book 1 and The Freshman, Book 2 is not as good as I thought, The Freshman, Book 3 is not as bad as I thought, and The Freshman, Book 4 is as good as I thought. I am currently in The Sophomore, Book 1 with my replay and the parts I found cringeworthy are just as cringeworthy, but overall better than much of Freshman year.

Obviously this is all my opinion, but the second biggest complaint I have about The Junior, Book 1 is that they let people spend diamonds believing they could keep a certain character as a love interest, because I feel like that was a lie directly affecting people's (not mine, I've yet to spend any diamonds in the entire series) pocketbooks. First biggest complaint, and really the only other one I have (well, I guess there is also the cringeworthy treatment of Tyler by the authors, but that was so short, I keep forgetting about it) is that it's a series about a college student and her friends and the only thing that I recall that really had to do with college (Alpha Theta Mu only sort of counting) was the thing with Zig's grades and his arguments with his sister about her classes. I don't recall them attending college during the book at all.
