About this deal

For fans of contemporary fiction, issue novels, or just gritty emotion this novel is a must-read which I wouldn't hesitate to recommend. They were more like sisters than friends and it was so easy to see how big of a part they played in each other's lives.

Maybe One Day was a beautifully written story full with hope, heartache and purposeful relationships. They gave much needed comic relief when things got a bit too heavy and I loved how supportive they all were in seeing this journey through.As each clue falls into place, Jess discovers new things about herself – and the man who once broke her heart. Zoe is there for her every single step of the way and also dealing with the new way their friendship is, finding her feelings out and how she can go on doing things when Olivia is sick at home or in the hospital. I've always known Debbie Johnson is a fabulous author, but this book seems to have catapulted her to a whole new level, I really had no idea what to expect from the book, the blurb gives an idea but thankfully doesn't touch the surface of just what's inside the covers.

As a child I gravitated towards the fictional works of Lurlene McDaniel and Melissa Kantor's One Day Maybe is right in that very same vein. And I’m a girl who loves a dang road trip story *sadface* Buuuuuuuuut, anything that gives me some Letters to Juliet vibes is still pretty good chick lit . The rest of the characters (except maybe for Olivia) seemed one-dimensional, very stereotypical and in a not so flattering way. Also, you cannot convince me that the narrative required Olivia to go from the GP to treatment for leukemia within twelve hours.But I did what I do best by swallowing down any pesky emotion before it could ever even get near to bubbling over. For as long as she can remember, Hayley Donovan has had a crush on Jace Hammond, and she always hoped that maybe one day, he’d feel the same. But when you start crying because you made someone else cry or just crying for the slightest little problem is just plain annoying. Everything wasn't sorted out correctly and it fell apart, but the middle and the struggles that the characters had built everything back up and made up for the struggle that the plot had in the beginning. Instead of focusing on romance like The Fault in Our Stars, Maybe One Day revolves around the friendship between Zoe and Olivia.

I did have problems at times understanding the different accents, but she really did such a fantastic job. After a tragic accident forced them apart, it's been seventeen years since Jess and Joe have seen each other. Shaken but empowered, Jess—and her two stalwart best friends—set out on a remarkable journey to follow a set of faded postmarks around the world.It's not a realistic story about a girl whose friend gets cancer and the impact that truly has on a person's life. You got to see up close the emotions she went though, how she was not only dealing with school and hormones but the illness of someone she loved. Jess has just lost her mother and she and her cousin begin to go through the items in the attic of the house.
