whoop-de-doo im finally writing a review for this book literally a month after i read it. procrastination at its finest.

anywho, in case you didn’t know, Maybe This Time is about a girl who works at a flower shop. when a new guy comes to town, the two tEeNs have one year (aka nine chances) to fall in love.

let’s start.

WHAT I LIKED:

• the flower aspect
i don’t know a lot about flowers so learning more about their meaning and the way the look was cool...i guess. although, at times, this whole flower thing could get too detailed. but for the most part, i enjoyed it.

• the fashion
or should i say fashion mentions?

my ultimate dream/goal in life is to go to Parsons and become a fashion designer. so, as expected, i really enjoyed this part of the story.


• characters (except for one)
the characters, expect for a specific one who we’ll get to soon, we’re all really cool. they were fleshed our, 3-D, and they all had backstories and families and, ya know, a life.


WHAT I DIDNT LIKE:

• sophie
where do i even start with sophie? she was generally just kinda annoying. she was a bit of a brat in my opinion. to me, she cared only about herself. and she was so rude to Andrew for like no reason.


• romance/slow burn
this. romance. is. so. slow. burn. and it was extremely aggravating. i don’t know about you, but i really don’t like slow burn romance unless it’s done right. and i, personally, don’t think it was done right.




anyway, that’s my review. ✌️ sorry that it came so late.

OVERALL RATING: 3.0
