Summary
Topher Elliot is high school royalty。
The king of Lakeview prep。
You know the type。 Disgustingly rich。 Blond-haired。 Eyes the color of a clear， blue sky。 And muscles for days。
He also happens to be enemy #1， the bane of my existence。
Only， now my scholarship is in jeopardy and， like the peasant I am， I must tutor the king himself if I want to graduate。
Still， if I have to be around him， I might as well make it worth my while。 So I send him a scathing text， telling him exactly what I think about him。 But he mistakes me for someone else。 That’s when I hatch a plan: get dirt on the king， and watch his reign crumble。
It’s about time someone made the king come tumbling down。

It's been a while since I've thrown my book（in this case my phone）。 This was one of those refreshing reads that leave you hooked and aching for more。 I absolutely fell in love with Topher's character from the beginning even if his actions were questionable。 Having both point of views allowed me to get a grasp on what they were both feeling and thinking about each other and their futures。 Can't wait for the spin-off Fake Notes with Penelope's friend Scarlett's story。 :） It's been a while since I've thrown my book（in this case my phone）。 This was one of those refreshing reads that leave you hooked and aching for more。 I absolutely fell in love with Topher's character from the beginning even if his actions were questionable。 Having both point of views allowed me to get a grasp on what they were both feeling and thinking about each other and their futures。 Can't wait for the spin-off Fake Notes with Penelope's friend Scarlett's story。 :） 。。。more

A Great Enemies to Lovers Read！A good read if you're looking for a sweet enemies to Lovers or nerd-jock relationship。 The development of the enemy situation was excellent， and you really got to feel how Penelope felt being treated that way。 Some plot points were left underdeveloped， and the ending seemed choppy but it was a wonderful overall experience。 Great literature quotes too！Total read time: 1。5 hours A Great Enemies to Lovers Read！A good read if you're looking for a sweet enemies to Lovers or nerd-jock relationship。 The development of the enemy situation was excellent， and you really got to feel how Penelope felt being treated that way。 Some plot points were left underdeveloped， and the ending seemed choppy but it was a wonderful overall experience。 Great literature quotes too！Total read time: 1。5 hours 。。。more

This novel is just so fun。 I loved the sizzling hate and love between Penelope and Topher。 Penelope is your nerdy goody two shoes person。 She is studious and has a major chip。 But， she doesn't take crap from people。 Topher seems to be your average jock， but is he？ Topher is my favorite character in the entire novel。 He is so sweet and really cares。 I love how he doesn't tolerate people bullying Penelope。 He aims to strike a friendship with her。 Penelope was good， I mean she was also stubborn but This novel is just so fun。 I loved the sizzling hate and love between Penelope and Topher。 Penelope is your nerdy goody two shoes person。 She is studious and has a major chip。 But， she doesn't take crap from people。 Topher seems to be your average jock， but is he？ Topher is my favorite character in the entire novel。 He is so sweet and really cares。 I love how he doesn't tolerate people bullying Penelope。 He aims to strike a friendship with her。 Penelope was good， I mean she was also stubborn but she was nice。 I loved how she grew and learned not to judge。 That is my favorite part。 The romance is also amazing。 I loved how their relationship was a slow-burn。 They slowly became friends and then more。 It was awesome to see how each person judged the other and have those walls come down。 And the kissing scenes are super awesome and tender。 In summary， this is an awesome debut novel from an amazing author。 I highly recommend this novel and any others she releases。 I cannot wait for the next book in the series。 *I have received an ARC in exchange for an honest review。 。。。more

Hate Notes （Lakeview Prep， Book 1） by Gracie Graham is a sweet and engaging romance， a little reminiscent of a Romeo and Juliet modern day saga。 Penelope Ewe， better known as P， is a devoted daughter， sister and model student。 Since grade school， Penelope has been attending Lakeview Prep， a posh and upscale school， thanks to an ongoing scholarship program she was blessed to have earned。 Unfortunately， the funds fueling this scholarship program are short her senior year and it’s either pay up or Hate Notes （Lakeview Prep， Book 1） by Gracie Graham is a sweet and engaging romance， a little reminiscent of a Romeo and Juliet modern day saga。 Penelope Ewe， better known as P， is a devoted daughter， sister and model student。 Since grade school， Penelope has been attending Lakeview Prep， a posh and upscale school， thanks to an ongoing scholarship program she was blessed to have earned。 Unfortunately， the funds fueling this scholarship program are short her senior year and it’s either pay up or forfeit her position at Lakeview Prep。Regrettably， as Principal Bell informs Penelope of her dilemma， he also offers her a way forward。 Penelope may keep her stay and earn the needed funds for her senior year if she works as a tutor for Lakeview Prep。 Relieved to hear this news， Penelope jumps at the chance。 But， as they say， no good deed goes unpunished。 On her list of students to tutor is her nemesis， Topher Elliot。 Rich， good looking and captain of the water polo team， Topher， who is referred to as King and his friends as Royals， have teased and tormented Penelope since middle school。 Their favorite torture is the nickname they crowned her with in sixth grade - P Ewe， better known as skunk girl。 So it’s with great angst and trepidation that Penelope begins to tutor Topher Elliot。 Unfortunately， even though Topher is on his best behavior， one too many pranks and rude remarks throughout the years has left Penelope deciding she has had enough。 She sends an anonymous text to Topher telling him exactly what she thinks of him。 Something she would never have the courage to say to his face。 When Topher responds， an ongoing conversation and blind relationship is started。 Pretending to be someone named Julie， Penelope leads Topher on in hopes of finding some dirt she can leverage against him， while Topher， for his part， is hoping to convince her his image is just a facade。 He yearns to be taken seriously and to be seen for who he really is， someone with dreams and aspirations of his own， not just a rich spoiled kid。 But like Romeo and Juliet， eventually all the subterfuge comes tumbling down。 When truths are revealed and the masks come off， their feelings may not be enough to survive the fallout。This book was so much fun。 It was such an entertaining read and I thoroughly enjoyed the characters that the author Gracie Graham created in Hate Notes。 I really liked Penelope and her loyal friend Scarlett。 I wasn't sure how I was going to like Topher， but as the story evolved， I began rooting for him to take a stand against his father， as well as his friends who were more like court jesters， than any real companions。 I enjoyed watching Penelope and Topher’s relationship evolve overtime and in addition to their character development， I liked how she weaved the stories of their family dynamics together and how they came into play in their relationship。 The story-line was engaging and all in all Hate Notes by Gracie Graham was a very pleasant and worthwhile read。 。。。more

I enjoyed reading Hate Notes。 It is a really cute story about a hate/love relationship。 I liked the male character a little better than the female character， which is new for me。 Looking forward to the next book in the series。

Hate Notes is an enemies-to-lovers very sweet YA romance with a little bit of kissing。 No hard stuff or a lot of F* words （if any， as I cannot remember any。 Topher and P feels a little bit too young or maybe I am just used to the hard stuff （all those YA which are not YA at all）， however， the story unfolded nicely and without any difficulties。 They both are likeable and their love-story is believable。 I do recommend it to the readers who is in a dire need for a clean and sweet story。 A girl or b Hate Notes is an enemies-to-lovers very sweet YA romance with a little bit of kissing。 No hard stuff or a lot of F* words （if any， as I cannot remember any。 Topher and P feels a little bit too young or maybe I am just used to the hard stuff （all those YA which are not YA at all）， however， the story unfolded nicely and without any difficulties。 They both are likeable and their love-story is believable。 I do recommend it to the readers who is in a dire need for a clean and sweet story。 A girl or boy of any age could read it and nothing would have been spoiled for him or her。 Therefore， be warned - the book is clean， sweet， but with a glimpse into the challenges a high school senior encounters。*I received and ARC from the author's team and the expressed opinion is my own。 。。。more

Hate Notes was an easy quick read for me。 It was kind of predictable for me but still enjoyable to read。 This is another high school drama with betrayal; family drama; enemies to lovers; bullying; etc。 I felt for Penelope considering how bad the other kids treated her。 Some teenagers can be so ruthless; it’s scary。 Unfortunately some of this bullying started with Topher and him making a small joke about her name。 Which stuck with his friends who still bullied her into senior year。 Honestly I don Hate Notes was an easy quick read for me。 It was kind of predictable for me but still enjoyable to read。 This is another high school drama with betrayal; family drama; enemies to lovers; bullying; etc。 I felt for Penelope considering how bad the other kids treated her。 Some teenagers can be so ruthless; it’s scary。 Unfortunately some of this bullying started with Topher and him making a small joke about her name。 Which stuck with his friends who still bullied her into senior year。 Honestly I don’t understand how Topher wasn’t made fun of for his name？？ Thankfully Topher shows much better character development as the story goes on。 Penelope gets in over her head on lying to Topher about who he has been texting。 She wanted to figure out a secret or something that would take the king down but she ended up finding out more than she should have。 She also realized that she was starting to have feelings for Topher even though he could be a jerk。 She should have just told him at the water polo met but of course his dad had to ruin that。 I despised Topher’s dad and his attitude towards everything。 He got what he deserved at the end in my opinion。 I’m glad things finally started to turn around for Penelope and Topher and that this story ended happily。 Thankfully the epilogue was well detailed so you didn’t finish the story with questions。 。。。more
