The Bro Code Kindle Edition

Some rules were made to be broken.

As a certified stand-up bro, Nick Maguire knows that some things in life are sacred: Do not skip ab workouts. Never back down from spicy foods. And always accept the outcome of Rock, Paper, Scissors. For these are the revered doctrines of The Bro Code, rules of conduct that have been passed down through the ages from bro to bro.

Heading into his senior year, Cassidy High’s star soccer player has his priorities straight and intends to spend his time playing sports, hanging out, and living by the code. But when his best bro Carter’s sister Eliza returns from studying overseas, the awkward, academic girl Nick remembers is different.

Carter might be Nick’s bro, but Eliza becomes his whole world—and he has to make a choice between them. Is being with the girl of your dreams worth breaking the most important rule: never date your best friend’s sister? Somehow, Nick never expected that following The Bro Code may have even bigger consequences than breaking it.

Editorial Reviews

From School Library Journal

Gr 9 Up—White teens Nick and his best friend Carter are Cassidy High School's star soccer players. Nick's father coaches the team and expects Nick to achieve the collegiate-level stardom that was taken from him due to an injury. That pressure also includes additional early-morning workouts and grueling training that strains his relationship with his father. Therefore, Nick spends a lot of time at his best friend's house and sees Carter's sister, Eliza, on a daily basis. After a year studying in Australia, Eliza is no longer the awkward, nerdy freshman Nick remembers. But any hope of a relationship with Eliza is forbidden by the "Bro Code" that governs the conduct of Nick, Carter, and their friends. Ultimately, Nick will have to choose between Eliza and Carter while trying to make his own path to college and a closer relationship with his parents. The plot moves at a satisfying pace but the Bro Code is almost its own character, often forced into dialog and situations that would be more authentic without it. Some serious issues are tackled, including sexual consent and the loss of a parent, but the primary focus is on the development of Nick and Carter as they navigate tough decisions about relationships, college, and the Bro Code. VERDICT This story could resonate with readers but would need some hard selling to convince them that it's not just a typical romance novel.—Lynn Rashid, Marriotts Ridge H.S., MD

Review

"Witty and intensely charming, Seibert’s debut will have you laughing along from the very first page!" ―Alex Light, author of The Upside of Falling

“Brilliant, sharp, and laugh-out-loud funny. Elizabeth’s writing hooks you right from the start, and Nick and Eliza are the kind of couple you can’t help but root for!” ―Beth Reekles, author of The Kissing Booth

“The Bro Code brings laughter, butterflies (and mild heart-palpitations) along for the ride as Nick and his best friends re-write The Bro Code in a much-needed modern take." ―Ann Valett, author of Clique Bait

Fun YA Rom Com
This was such a fun cheesy little YA romcom. Just what I was hoping it would be.I enjoyed the layout of the plot, I enjoyed all the different characters and watching them grow and change. Nick was such a fun Lead character, he was a total guy, but also open to learning & listening and changing his view points on things he’d never really thought mattered.Eliza is just great! I loved her whit, sarcasm and charm. She knew who she was and wasn’t going to let herself be held back.If you’re looking for a fun cheesy YA romcom that deal with some tough topics in a great way you should pick this one up!

5.0 out of 5 stars Rewriting the Code
Reviewed in the United States on October 9, 2020

I sank right into the world of the Bro Code, and found myself thinking back to my own high school days (which looked pretty much nothing like Nick, Carter, Austin, and Eliza's, by the way, other than the fact that I also did sports...) and friendships from back then. Seibert builds such a believable bond between the Bros. Their code of rules may seem a little cliche, but they involve some of the most ridiculous things (like "a bro shalt not skip ab workouts" or "a bro shalt not back down from spicy foods") along with the more "traditional" "rules" from bro culture. But ultimately, she shapes a world where bros can learn from their mistakes, talk about them, and examine their own toxic masculinity.

It's a light enough story that touches on some pretty serious topics, too. She does a very good job at tackling them head on and not skirting around them.

4.0 out of 5 stars Cute Rom Com Touching On Tough Topics
Reviewed in the United States on March 16, 2023

Elizabeth Seibert seamlessly incorporates a strong stance against sexism within a cute rom com narrated by your typical high school jock that falls for his best friend's sister. While touching on topics such as toxic masculinity, while utilizing an incredible amount of satire, you won't want to put this book down!

I loved this book! It took me back to when I was in high school, and the "bro" voice worked well to both add a comedic effect and let readers glimpse the social pressures that "bro-culture" can have on high school teens.

The relationship between Nick and Eliza was just what I hoped it would be, fluffy with some drama that made me hold my breath, and I loved how (no spoilers) they acted at the end of the book. Definitely recommend to anyone who wants a refreshing, YA read, or any young readers who are looking for a fun romantic comedy.

I'm admittedly not a fun of YA fiction, and barely read the genre.

Needless to say, it was very entertaining and a nice little fun read. I would definitely recommend this to someone in high school who needs to discover the holy "Bro code" isn't everything!

The Bro Code is about a group of boys that go by different Bro Codes. One of the boys falls in love with his best friends sister which we all know is against BRO CODE. Overall I gave this story 3 stars because it was a little slow but a cute quick YA read.

The Bro Code was funny, heartfelt, and teaches incredible lessons about what it means to be a "bro" in today's world. As someone who never even close to being a bro in high school, I loved living that life vicariously through Nick and his OBs.

1.0 out of 5 stars Not for me
Reviewed in the United States on September 29, 2020
This was a book I picked because it looked like a straight up story about a best friend’s little sister romance with a HS background and I’m a fan of young adult stories. I didn’t expect it to be a dissection of rules for the boys of the popular clique at the school and how it translates into our politically correct world.
There was a lot to this book and I think it could have been a great story. Unfortunately, I didn’t care for it one bit and not because of its contents, but everything else.
I didn’t like the writing and felt the story failed to have an established plot/properly developed storyline. It kept jumping around without grasping at one thing and even the family and friendship issues took a back seat to the drama of the main character getting into college.
IMO there was a lot that could have been done with the story as there are a lot of lessons packed in the final interpretation of the code itself, but the delivery was trying too hard to be on the politically correct wave and was quite sloppy for my taste. I don’t believe one can fix a story with passable last chapters and a decent epilogue.

2.0 out of 5 stars Not Executed Very Well
Reviewed in the United States on September 22, 2020
I was eager to read this book because 1. it’s in the POV of a guy which we don’t get enough of in YA and 2. it sounded funny and fresh. It didn’t quite live up to my expectations.

There was a little more backstory at the beginning than I would have liked. It’s essential to explain some things at the beginning because, as readers, we have to learn who all the characters are and their stories. However, I felt a little like I was being bombarded with backstory. I think it really could have been spread out more throughout the book.

As well, the writing was very bro-y. I know that’s kinda the point since this book is called THE BRO CODE and it’s about bro friends, but it got very annoying very quickly. I kinda felt like I was reading the thoughts of a stereotypical frat boy even though this guy is in high school.

There were, however, some fun parts to this point. My favorite was probably the bro rules at the beginning of each chapter. The gave a hint as to what was to come in the chapter and made things a little more interesting, especially when the rules were broken.

I also really liked that the book challenged the bros’ toxic masculinity. It was definitely made clear that the bro code is meant to be challenged and changed for the better. Seibert made a point of making her characters understand the importance of empowering women and supporting diversity in friendship.

Overall, this wasn’t one of my favorite reads. The idea was nice and I enjoyed the actual bro code, but it wasn’t executed very well.

Man, this book took me back! I initially read through when it was being updated chapter to chapter on Wattpad. I enjoyed it back then and was excited to see what Seibert did to the story when it was published. Needless to say, I was not disappointed! This book is written entirely from the perspective of star soccer player Nick Maguire, and the comedy hidden throughout is hilarious. I often found myself turning to my boyfriend and asking "Wait are teenage boys actually like this?" Now we're most definitely planning on having a water gun battle that would be the envy of Nick and Carter. While this book still has some "Wattpad" tendencies, it's clear that Seibert's writing has evolved in a wonderful way, and I'm definitely excited for what she will produce next.
