My Thoughts
Oh WOW! What an AMAZING story!
Sydney Blake thought her life was perfect. She was in College and had a job. She had a great boyfriend and a fantastic best friend and roommate. Plus, there's the cute guy that plays guitar on his balcony every night for a little extra eye candy. She connected to his music and began making up her own lyrics to his songs.
Ridge Lawson had a perfect life of his own. He had an amazing girlfriend. He wrote lyrics and music for his band Sounds of Cedar. He also had extra eye candy in Sydney. He would watch her on her balcony and could see that she was singing to his music. With some written signage, they exchanged numbers and began texting.
Ridge was put in an awkward situation. He could see what Sydney's boyfriend and best friend were doing behind her back. But how could he tell her? After all, he didn't know her very well.
The day Sydney lost her job was the day she found out for sure. To make matters worse, it was her birthday. What a great day to lose your job, your boyfriend, your best friend and your home. Ridge felt horrible for having to tell her the truth, and offered her to stay with him and his flatmates until she got on her feet.
I loved Sydney and Ridge's story! The attraction between Sydney and Ridge was strong and tangible. It was an emotional journey, with ups and downs and laughter and tears. The lyrics, along with the soundtrack, added to the story. The characters were lovable and easy to connect with.
As always, Colleen Hoover's writing is captivating. It holds your attention and keeps you longing for what's to happen next. Maybe Someday is by far one of the best books I've read this year!
