The Fourth Time Charm by Maya Hughes
4.0
I feel like I've been waiting for this book for years and Im so glad I didn't get disappointed
- the tropes: even if I love the concept of best friends to lovers there's a few that actually make me feel something, the fourth time charm checked all my boxes with that trope there's development, there's angst, and there's a little bit of forbidden romance in it.
- the characters: Marisa was beyond incredible here, she's amazing and incredibly strong, she's the best main character Maya has written especially since her life history is so hard, I think she did an amazing job capturing her feelings and her process of forgiveness with the people that hurt her.
LJ on the other hand was a very stable person, he does struggle a lot with his feelings toward Marisa, his love for football, and his commitment to his family, overall his character was well written, hes really sweet and supportive, love him a lot <3
- I wrote this review a month after I read the book so I don't remember what thing I dislike about it, but I think it was that I found it slow at times, but it doesn't matter because their love story is AMAZING!!!
