One Way or Another
by Kara McDowell
MOSTLY CUTE.

This was a nice quick holiday read.
I liked the anxiety rep in here. Even though it stressed me out (because I would have some of the exact same thoughts as Paige), it was relatable in a way I could really feel. I appreciated her journey and finding safety and help from her loved ones as she recognized its impact on her life.
Fitz was sweet. I liked him much more towards the end. I didn’t like the dual timeline aspect. It made some of the drama (and love triangle) feel a bit forced. I guess there might not have been enough without it, though I can see that this could have been a great novella length read too.
The Christmastime vibes were there and its a good, true young adult book. Not overall note worthy, but it fit that spirit of the season I was looking for.
Overall audience notes:
- YA Contemporary Romance
- Language: none
- Romance: kisses
- Violence: head injuries
- Trigger/Content Warnings: many depictions of severe anxiety
