This is a young adult/romance. I just could not get into this book. I read the whole book, and the whole time I was wishing it was going to get better. I think it was just not the book for me. The writing style was just one I come not get into. I have seen some really good reviews about this book, so some people really loved it. I hope the book finds the people that love it. I was kindly provided an e-copy of this book by the publisher or author via NetGalley in exchange for an honest review, an...

3.5 starsI appreciate how this book was more than just a typical young adult romance. The characters were well-developed and weren't primarily focused on their love lives all the time. And I enjoyed how the author used music in the story as the characters would go back and forth sharing different songs that were relevant in certain situations. Luke Greenly has seen what life is like under the spotlight as his dad is a famous punk rock musician. While Luke enjoys making music, he has no interest

3.5 generous STARS ★★★✬✩ This book is for… music enthusiasts who enjoy good song and genre references in their YA reads. Be ready for a lot of adorkable teenage angst and overthinking. ⤐ Overall.That's it, I'm making it official: I'm in a bloody reading slump.I'm not gonna lie to you, folks. I feel like an utter tosser not adoring this book. Honestly, what is wrong with me. It features angsty teenagers, a pure gay love, family relationships, personal emotional growth and an awful lot of b

Absolutely LOVED! Full review to come.*EDITED TO ADD REVIEW*I expected to love More Than Maybe, I did not expect it to steal my heart. The characters, the story, the music, the sheer friendship and love. This is by far the first YA book in a really long time I can say completely swept me a way in just about every way a girl, a reader, can be swept away. And yes, dear author, I want a Phil! And a Cullen, and a Zach, and a Mia, and yes, especially a Luke! This was so much more than I was expecting...

I don't know what to do with this book. Well, read it, obviously. But how to describe it in a way that makes sense? Short description first, I guess. This is a brand of YA wish fulfillment in the sense that the background of the characters, and their prospects going forward, are unique and interesting. In this case, both Luke and Vada are heavily into music and each are incredibly talented in their own ways, and, more importantly, have recognition for those talents. Even more fantastic (in the f...

A superb teen romance that will make you smileLuke Greenly has a famous dad (former punk rock icon Charlie Greenly), a popular and outgoing twin brother who has sorta stolen his best friend (they're going out now), and immense musical talent. But Luke prefers his music more private. He writes songs instead of singing them. Just try telling that to his family. He also has a longtime crush on music blogger Vada Carsewell. Vada loves music too. She lives and breathes it--working at the Loud Lizard,...

Another limbo read and I need immediate help! I’m moving back and forth between 3 and 4 stars! My head starts spinning to take the fair decision. I loved the writing style, smart musical knowledge and intellectual references, I loved supporting characters and it was fast, easy, mostly sweet reading but I’m reading “You’d Be Mine” at the same time and that really confused the hell of me (By the way: there was nothing wrong about the book) I could give this one four solid stars even though I could...

More Than Maybe is ya contemporary that showed up in my life just when I needed one.I was craving for a story like this, and am so grateful it was in my hands in the exactly right time.Therefore, because I enjoyed every single page of this book (the bitter and the sweet) I had to rate it so high.Music (or songs to be particular) plays big role in both Vada's and Luke's life which, as a result, has that it has big role in this story too.They send music links to each other through the story, and I...

Just you wait, guys. JUST. YOU. WAIT.

4.5 stars, rounded up. More Than Maybe , Erin Hahn's upcoming book, is a terrific story about music, love, family, and the freedom to follow—or not follow—your passions.Vada has had a crush on Luke Greenly for a while. It’s not just his accent (his family moved to Michigan from the UK when he was younger) or his looks; it’s his soulfulness, his personality, and of course, the passion for music they share.Luke has always been partial to gingers so of course Vada catches his eye every time he an...

Many thanks to Macmillan Audio for the free audiobook in exchange for an honest reviewhis was such a hopeful and joyful book while expertly mixing in some heavier themes but balancing it all out with a sweet romance. I loved You’d Be Mine and I was really exciting to test this.I was frustrated by the whole conflict, especially by the way it was "resolved". Mild spoilers ahead - When Cullen so blatantly disrespected Luke's privacy, I was really mad but I got even more mad when Luke was basically

My thanks to the author, publisher and NetGalley for a free ARC of this book in exchange for an honest review.Well!!! I just finished More Than Maybe and I have to say, that was one long, drawn out, slow sizzle of a romance between two totally likeable young adults: Vada Careswell and Luke Greenly. Would they or wouldn't they?! The suspense was killing me. Then..... the KISS! Picture a big smile on my face! Etta Jame's At Last is playing in the background (- or Beyonce's version, if you prefer i...

This book is perfect for any music enthusiast.This is a kind of confession, but I’m the worst when it comes to music. I can’t carry a tune, and can’t for the life of me remember lyrics. I’m the WORST!! So, much of the music related stuff in this novel, the YouTube references, singers, songs, etc went a bit over my head.But what I enjoyed the most about this book were the characters.Luke and Vada had such similar backstories, and complimented each other in a genuine way. Also the supporting chara...

4 stars 

This was my first book by Erin Hahn and it was seriously the cutest. It left me with a huge smile on my face. I loved Vada, Luke, and so many of the secondary characters (Phil especially). If you’re a music fan, I highly recommend this one.

Fantastic! If you are looking for a light-hearted, summer beach read, this is the one for you! I may have felt such a strong attachment to this book because I completely relate to the characters' love of music. Especially live music, which I miss horribly right now due to all the gathering restrictions. I was initially concerned that this might be too much flighty teenage romance but there is lots of growth and maturity in the short story. Language is strong throughout, so might not be for young...

3.5 starsThis was a cute, sweet read! The characters were what made the story for me and I enjoyed their dynamics immensely!More Than Maybe is more than a love story, it’s about family and friendship. Luke and Vada are likable protagonists with amazing banter. The side characters were also very fun to read about. Cullen and Phil were my favorites and I enjoyed their interactions with the protagonists.Luke and Vada are so cute together. I found it so sweet that they already had crushes on each ot...

Disclaimer: I received an Advance Reader Copy at no cost from the publisher/author. All opinions in my review are my own. This book was such a delightful little gem. I have such a soft spot for YA books that feature characters that have a passion and love for music. When I was in high school, music was my everything. It was my ultimate passion and what I lived for day to day. Reading this book was really nostalgic for me. I really felt every moment of this book so ardently. These characters were...

A sweet symphony of words. Erin Hahn has crafted an engaging story rocking with friendship, family, and music. Luke is the son of an expunk rocker who has no desire to follow in his father‘s footsteps, even though he has the talent. Vada is a huge music connoisseur. She writes a music blog and is headed off to college to study music journalism. The two of them have been crushing on one another for ages, neither of them knowing about the others feelings. When they are teamed up to collaborate on

First book club flop of the year. I could have finished it - it’s not terrible, but it’s bland and boring, so I don’t want to.Also, American authors MUST resist writing British characters if they don’t know what they are talking about. Nothing about Luke was British. I’ve read enough British books and watched enough British tv to pass judgment.

I can't decide how I felt about this one. On the one hand, it's a sweet romance and I love that the female lead is not a Manic Pixie, but it took more than half the book for her voice to feel even a little different from the male lead's and the pacing frequently felt clunky. Also, I can not get over the fact that a character is twice described as a "high-functioning introvert" which... introversion isn't a dysfunction, Erin.
