I Am Here Now by Barbara Bottner
3.0
I’ve never read a book in verses before and I loved it.
However what I didn’t like about this was that timeline was 60’s and a lot of the time I felt like I was a time traveler and the time and the place didn’t exist on a new verse.
So it would go from “ok I’m getting a little 60s here” then the next one it’s like “now we’re in what current times?, and location anywhere”. Which got annoying and I just wanted to finish this because I wanted to see how it ended.
I also had a not love… but idk what to call it/hate relationship with the main character. To me, she was a self centered bitch “excusez mon français”.
You know. Yes I actually hated Maisie, and I felt bad for her in the beginning and I’m glad she had somewhat of a happy ending.
