MAYBE NOT BY COLLEEN HOOVER

Rating: 5 stars

Goodreads Book Description:
When Warren has the opportunity to live with a female roommate, he instantly agrees. It could be an exciting change.

Or maybe not.

Especially when that roommate is the cold and seemingly calculating Bridgette. Tensions run high and tempers flare as the two can hardly stand to be in the same room together. But Warren has a theory about Bridgette: anyone who can hate with that much passion should also have the capability to love with that much passion. And he wants to be the one to test this theory.

Will Bridgette find it in herself to warm her heart to Warren and finally learn to love?

Maybe.

Maybe not.

My Review:
I remember when it was first announced that Colleen Hoover was writing a novella for Maybe Someday, I was in the city and as soon as I saw the news I lost all control of myself and went completely bananas…many stares were my way *hides in book.

After reading the story of Ridge and Sydney, I was curious about Bridgette and Warren’s relationship so I was overjoyed when it was mentioned that the novella would be about them.

As short as the novella was, it was every page worth turning. I loved the way it was told mostly from Warren’s perspective as it was really interesting to see his thought process and his ways of description.

Both Bridgette and Warren had unique backgrounds but they understood each other and what they had been through. That’s what made their relationship stronger, the way that she slowly learnt to let her walls down and allow herself to be vulnerable. He helped to let her guard down, feel loved and have a real relationship.

I can’t wait to pick up more of Colleen Hoover’s books and read about other characters!

MAYBE SOMEDAY BY COLLEEN HOOVER


Rating: 5 stars

“I never realized how powerful desire could be.  It consumes every part of you, enhancing your senses by a million. When you’re in the moment… all you can do is focus on the person in front of you.”


Goodreads Book Description:
At twenty-two years old, Sydney is enjoying a great life: She’s in college, working a steady job, in love with her wonderful boyfriend, Hunter, and rooming with her best friend, Tori. But everything changes when she discovers that Hunter is cheating on her—and she’s forced to decide what her next move should be.
Soon, Sydney finds herself captivated by her mysterious and attractive neighbor, Ridge. She can’t take her eyes off him or stop listening to the passionate way he plays his guitar every evening out on his balcony. And there’s something about Sydney that Ridge can’t ignore, either. They soon find themselves needing each other in more ways than one.
A passionate tale of friendship, betrayal, and romance, Maybe Someday will immerse readers in Sydney’s tumultuous world from the very first page.


My Review:
WOW. What an emotional whirlwind Colleen Hoover took me on with this book! I’ve been meaning to read one of her books for such a long time and after reading about Sydney and Ridge, I WANT TO BUY MORE!

The storyline and characters had me laughing, crying, and pulled at my heartstrings. My friend quite literally watched me sob over a book…but hey that’s what friends are for!

Sydney is so headstrong, calm and beautiful constantly throughout the story. Her development was so realistic and completely phenomenal to read.

Ridge is someone I can say A WHOLE LOT about but unfortunately I like to stick to the rule of NO SPOILERS and he is a big one!

There is also a soundtrack for the book by Griffin Peterson which I am just in love with: http://www.maybesomedaysoundtrack.com/

I can honestly say that Maybe Someday has such incredible characters and the storyline is beyond what I expected that Sydney and Ridge are bound to stay in your hearts forever!


As always, keep an eye out for more reviews soon to come!
