![]() North surprises her by asking if she’d please go and stay for a time with the two children for whom he is the guardian, both to look in on them and make sure they are well, and to put to rest some pesky rumors that the house they live in is haunted. In the start of Maybe This Time, Andie is going to visit her former husband, North (telling names, let Crusie show you them), much to her own dismay and irritation. I had no idea where the time went, how I ended up reading in the chaos that is my kitchen at 6pm, or how I was going to resist picking the book back up after just one chapter. But while making dinner and packing lunches and doing sixty-four other things, I opened to the first chapter and … SLURRRRRP … I was sucked in and found myself already powering into chapter two. I read this book after an ARC landed on my doorstep, and I didn’t mean to even open the cover because I was already reading two other books. This happened right from the start, too, damn seductive book. There are tremendously strong parts to this book, and parts that were so not-strong they broke the shiny smooth edges off the perfect parts, and STILL I pick up the book and start reading it again when I’m near my copy. I’m part YAY and I’m part BOO though I’m not MEH about it either. ![]() It’s actually very difficult to review this book, as I still think about it, and even when writing the review I picked up the book and started reading it again. ![]()
