Maverick Loves Londyn

5/5 drama-filled stars

This YA romance gave me some pretty strong West Side Story/Romeo and Juliet vibes with plenty of drama - though, thankfully, minus the tragic ending.

The writing is excellent, and the author manages to capture the intense feelings of first loves and teenage angst perfectly. The story also deals with heavier subjects (TW: sexual assault) in a realistic manner.

Despite the serious topics, the story made me smile and swoon and root for Maverick and Londyn in particular and the Misfits in general. While the main characters felt realistic and well developed, the antagonists seemed somewhat two-dimensional in their entitled snobbery.

I'm definitely looking forward to getting to know the other Misfits better, too! More, please?
