3.5/5

??? WHat was tHat???? That ending?? BUt thEre's gonna be another book?? How? WHy??

Okay, the plot leading up to the climax, I feel like, didn't really match the climax. There might've been what could've been called a climax but it didn't seem like that big of a deal and I didn't really care. It wasn't very exciting and not much happen, unlike the last one. It also wasn't as funny (and by as I mean it wasn't even funny at all)  as the last one. Character choices annoyed me and i'm just so confused right now and will be for the next while until a synopsis for the next book will come out.

3/5

I had a few problems with If You Could Be Mine. The plot was lackluster, average, predicable, slow and strung out, and didn't really keep my attention. I think the trans storyline was more focused on and forced than it should've been. I don't think it should really be the marketing point. The writing, like the last book I read of hers, Tell Me Again How A Crush Should Feel, was average but my main problem with that one wasn't as big of a problem in this one. 

However, I did enjoy the characters and the culture and I must admit, I did cry a little at the end.
