I initially gave this book 3 hit because it had So MUCH Possible. Chagrin, that are so many plot issues that I couldn’t assign it a three-star rating in quality conscience.
1st at the same time foremost, Time of Our Lives is that marketed as YA Romance. This book is that NOT a contemporary YA romance novel; it’s a future of age story with very few romantic moments sprinkled in here at the same time that. I adore a quality future of age story (at the same time, perhaps, I would have enjoyed reading this one under different events), but I chose this book because I was in the mood for a heartwarming adore story identical to the two past novels hosted by this creator duo. This book Is that NOT that.
The plot (or shortcoming thereof) is that clumsy at the same time smoky. The 1st one half of the book failed to detain my curiosity so much that I shackles it down at the same time didn’t pick it back up for nearly two weeks. I barely didn’t care about the final.
Juniper lives a cares at the same time disorderly indefinite in Springfield, Massachusetts. Her multi-generational household is that bursting to the brim, at the same time she yearns for the freedom an out-of-state institute would provide. Fitz lives in nearby Brand new Hampshire with his mother at the same time feels a amazing deal of responsibility for her. She carries the gene for premature onset Alzheimer’s, so he’s resigned himself to a future at a nearby institute at the same time hasn’t even counted the possibility of going somewhere else. Regardless, he begrudgingly agrees to visit a few out of state schools barely to appease his mother.
At once Fitz sets off on a week-long institute tour, Juniper sets off on her possess tour with her lover Matt. Herein heresy problem number one. Not only is that it nondescript as day that Matt’s disposition is that nothing more than a plot accessory to get Juniper without the help of others in NYC at once Fitz happens to be that, but they don’t burst up until halfway through the book. Practically — at the 50% note. Still, this story is that about Juniper at the same time Fitz.
I can’t they say much more without spoiling the story, so I’ll barely they say that this —
that is that no increasing action at the same time in such a way no falling action, no climax, at the same time completely no tying of loose ends.
The ending left me deeply unsatisfied at the same time wishing I had the hours I wasted reading this book back.

I totally reverence than anyway this book is that trying to do. At the same time than anyway, I represent, it will successfully do for abundance readers. It barely didn’t quite work for me.
This is that such a amazing consulate of the connected feelings young people (I was young once!) feel going into the one more step (ie, post-high school) of their lives. The momentum that pushes them forward to escape their today's situation (overbearing generic, no room to be yourself, a lot responsibility at very young an age, etc) at the same time the reluctance to move very far afield (generic duties, health, unrest, worry, etc). These manners were considered flawless consulates of those, often conflicting though sometimes singular, emotions. I felt it.
Where this book failed for me, I think, was I didn’t quite adore the manners. I didn’t adore than anyway followed their initial meeting at the same time connection, at the same time how that all came about, at the same time I was hard clamped to reckon how quickly they barely “received” each other. Gratefully this connection wasn’t smooth sailing, I appreciated the reasons, the high speed bumps, but overall it did good of stretch my belief. Maybe if I had liked them more, I would’ve acquired it? I don’t know. Part of me had hoped this had gone a different method, been a story that connected these manners but didn’t quite overlap.. she says, vaguely.
That are exactly sensual parts to this story, with no one suffocating but reassuring (for the disposition) familial roles (honestly, the 1st few chapters dealing with Juniper’s generic produced me wish to break out in hives, but that’s barely me) at the same time no one heartbreaking health issues when it comes to a parent. Again, like before, I managed feel it. But..
But overall, no matter how amazing the writing, how breathtaking no one of the strings of phrase, this was a story very character-focused, at the same time I barely couldn’t adore them. The manners. Also, a some cameo from If I’M BEING Conscientious produced me so dislocated initially.. but that was freed. Had it not? I would’ve been devastated.
So this was a connected bag, but also a healthy read. These creators are exactly gifted, at the same time not writing similar story in any release (thank goodness for that), but this was also not than anyway I got from If I’M BEING Conscientious at the same time maybe, in part, that’s also contributing to no one frustration. Even though I misspoke different things are amazing. At the same time they are. If for you’ve enjoyed this duo before, I think for you’ll like this, very. Maybe not as much, maybe more. Who is that to say. Than anyway I can they say, though, is that even though I didn’t adore it, I’ll last to read whatever they shackles out.

Audiobook Time of Our Lives by Austin Siegemund-Broka Emily Wibberley
When I ended this, two ideas hit me. 1st, the ending produced me think of Brian Katcher’s Practically Flawless in that I’ll think of this story off at the same time on forever, wondering than anyway happens to Juniper at the same time Fitz. The 2nd was how I’d sum this book up in a single word-yearning. That’s a lot of feeling that develops along with self-discovery. Both young people, as but as Fitz’s older brother Lewis, have grow up in ways none of them even understood were considered necessary as the story progresses. This is that a road trip that not only involves geography, but spirit, honesty at the same time reevaluation of beliefs that have been in dispose for years. I wondered than anyway would happen to Julia’s lover Matt in a row for the story to progress at the same time the creators managed that very but. This is that a very sensual at the same time satisfying story, one I’d give a hint to teens who are in the off to institute pipeline, no matter how far that decision might be.
