Review: The Bookworm - Book #1 Jocks and Nerds Collection - Darcy Rose - May 2025 As a self-confessed book lover, I was immediately drawn to The Bookworm , the first installment in Darcy Rose’s Jocks and Nerds Collection . With a title like that, how could any bookish reader resist? I was eager to dive into this quick, edgy new adult erotica — and it did not disappoint.
