Charmed Thirds (Jessica Darling #3)

Reader reviewed by Natalie

The third book in the series takes place during Jessica's college years. Despite what others say about this book, I love it as much as the other ones. This book deals with more adult issues (considering the fact that Jessica is an adult now)while still being honestly straightforwad as the previous ones.

Jessica's first year in college went okay considering the fact that she has a long distance relationsip with Marcus Flutie. Soon, their relationsip hits rock bottom and Jessica is once again alone. She goes through other relationships at the same time dealing with paying for college herself.

I liked that Marcus and Jessica broke up for a while because when they finally got back together, its because they still love each other, thus making their relationship and love even stronger.

CHARMED THIRDS, the third book in Megan McCaffertys bestselling series, introduces a more insightful and pensive, though not necessarily more likable, Jessica Darling. Diehard fans of the first two books will have trouble coming to terms with Jessicas growth, though personally I think its fantastic.

College is supposed to be better for Jessica Darling. After all, she has escaped Pineville to attend prestigious Columbia University in the greatest city in the world, and she is still with Marcus.

However, things are not as great as it seems. Jessica and Marcus relationship seems to hit the rocks. She still cant escape her high school joke of friends, even with new college friends. She has unsatisfying flings with several different guys. But worst of all, her parents wont help her pay for college.

How will Jessica even survive her college years, let alone come out a better person?
