Our Year of Maybe by Rachel Lynn Solomon
4.0
initially i thought this book would be an angsty romance with an illness plotline thrown in for drama. but boy was i wrong.
i ended up really liking [b:Our Year of Maybe|30340865|Our Year of Maybe|Rachel Lynn Solomon|https://i.gr-assets.com/images/S/compressed.photo.goodreads.com/books/1546534203l/30340865._SY75_.jpg|50840642] for the following reasons:
1. peter's chronic illness fet real and authentic and never tacked on
2. representation of jewish characters. the characters might feel disconnected from their roots but are still very protective about their culture. that was very relatable to me.
3.growing pains of being a young adult. loosing friends, making new ones. letting go of toxic friendships.
4. family dynamics, especially the part with sophies younger sister having a baby felt so emotional
