Maybe Once, Maybe Twice
by Alison Rose Greenberg
♥️ Love triangle between Maggie, Garrett and Asher
I am a sucker for a good love triangle and most of this one truly hit the spot. I was torn most of the book trying to decide who I liked better of the two guys. I was extremely bothered that Garrett couldn’t seem to make up his mind on if he wanted Maggie or if he wanted the woman he was engaged to. But his story of meeting Maggie? Them meeting up over and over once a week in the grocery store and then trying to decide if they were ready to get to know each other for real or if that would break the magic of it all? Ugh. That gave me all the butterflies. That felt like fate. But then there’s Asher who knows her from childhood and was her first real love. And they are precious. I didn’t know who I wanted until maybe 3/4 of the way through the book.
So in the end she gets with Asher and we loved this for her even though I was team Garrett. Minus the run away at the engagement party scene. Because ew that was gross and tacky and we didn’t need to be having sex at his engagement party.
On chapter 54/56 there’s a last minute breakup with Asher and Maggie. WHY. There was no alluding to this breakup reason (he didn’t want kids and she did) at all during the book for these two main characters. Yes, we see it in her friend but not herself! This took a solid star off my review rating. If you took out the last three chapters of the book it would have been infinitely better. I’m all here for throwing real life situations into the book but not when there’s only like ten pages left.
