Call Me, Maybe by Ellie Cahill
I did not finish this book, and will not be writing a full review of it for that reason. I honestly found parts of this story to be too unbelievable. Who gets their phone mixed up with a stranger's? Who, in Clementine's situation, wouldn't have some sort of protection set up for their phone? Who makes such a long string of bad decisions? I love I Temporarily Do by Ellie Cahill, and was excited to read more of her books. But this really didn't work for me.
This was a cute one-time read. There was a ton of unnecessary family drama, but an OK read otherwise.
I had such high hopes for this one but I just couldn't get into it. I'm not sure if it was my mood or what but I have tried to pick it up at least 6 times and it just didn't grab me. I'm happy to see many people have liked this book because I really wanted to. Definitely a case of it's me, not you.
I requested this one back in the day as I had every intention of reading it. However, its been years and I still haven't gotten around to it and while I feel guilty at not reviewing a book I think that I need to admit to myself that I won't be reading this one anytime soon....if at all.
hmmmmmmmmmmm
I had high expectations of this one. But sadly there were not met.
Still parts of this I did really love, others not so much
I guess it's pleasant enough but not amazing
I was unable to read this title before the publication date. At this time, I'm no longer interested in reading it, but will consider it in the future. Thank you to the publisher for a chance to read this title.
Received an ARC from NetGalley for an honest review.
Well, this was just adorable! It was cute and heartfelt and had enough emotion to keep my invested and just a touch of heat. Not to mention all of the books...I don't think I've ever empathized with anyone as much as I did Clementine every time she started talking about her books. For all the talk about her being the black sheep, that's not really the right description for her. Her issue is that she made one mistake when she was younger and now that she doesn't know what she wants to do with her life, she feels disjointed from the rest of her family. Open on the serendipitous "meeting" with Justin. The confusion of phones is the perfect excuse for them to start to get to know each other, and before you know it, they're moving pretty quickly. The problem? Thanks to Clementine's history and the amount of money her family has, she hasn't exactly been 100% honest with Justin. That's when things get emotional.
That ending, though? Maybe a little over the top...but it worked. A good read.
Call Me, Maybe is the FIRST Ellie Cahill (Liz Czukas) book I didn't finish. There wasn't anything particularly HORRIBLE about it, but the pacing was way too fast and it was just, to be frank, boring. I couldn't force myself to read another word. DNF at around 50%.
Call Me Maybe was a light, sweet read. It really hit the spot. I love the author’s creative way of bringing the hero and heroine together. I’d definitely read more from her in the future.
