Reviews with content warning for Abandonment - Maybe Someday

I read this years ago, but I decided to revisit it. I grew up and changed, so I have a different take now than when I was younger. At the beginning of this story, Sydney annoyed the shit out of me. Her hypocrisy was to the max, and she needed therapy sessions to manage her violence. I surely missed these things years ago because I was so naive back then, never realizing that red flags were in my face, and this book had many of them waving. Even if I disliked her in a massive chunk of this story, I was glad she transformed even a little bit.

I understood Ridge, but he was far from innocent like Sydney insisted a million times. He was a grown-ass man, so he knew what was up. He was deaf, not stupid, but yeah, he did a lot of shitty things as well. He couldn't get mad at Hunter because they had similarities.

I wouldn't say I liked that Sydney and Ridge were both flirting, but they got surprised to develop feelings. What?

Maggie, I hope you live a good life.

Warren, you're the best boy ever. Thank you for being supportive and understanding.

I liked the music part so much. The lyrics were intriguing, and I was happy they bonded through music. Overall, a good read.✨🎧

This book was really interesting. I loved the deaf perspective of the whole thing, as it’s not something I’ve really read about before. I thought that the way they fell in love was also very interesting, seeing as the situation they found themselves in was not an ideal romantic scenario. It was cool to see how honest they were to each other about their feelings, because most conflicts in romance novels come from not voicing their feelings, and this did a good job of breaking that mold. I enjoyed it, but it was kind of hard for me with the lyrics and everything because I’m such a not musical kind of person, but the book was good!
