Reviews with the most likes.
Never Have I Ever by Karen McManus – Barely 2 stars. Is she just known for plot twists? I liked this but it didn't grip me and it's a short story! It should quickly grab my attention. It didn't give me enough of the characters for me to like/dislike anyone.
Like Before by Maurene Goo – 2 stars. It started off moderately okay and didn't improve. I didn't like the characters and found the writing and dialogue to be a bit wooden. It had a cute concept.
Old Rifts and Snowdrifts by Kayla Whaley – 5 stars. This was so super cute! I loved Owen and Eleanor and the story setting as well. Loved seeing the disability rep and the very casualness about it too, you know?
Kiss the Boy by Amanda Joy – 4 stars. This was cute! I don't know which school would allow boys and girls to sleep next to each other
