I came to learn of Make It Count not that long ago. Megan was looking for people to help with the cover reveal and when I read the synopsis I knew I had to read this book. It sounded like it was going to be hilarious and fun. Guess what, I was right.Make It Count is everything you’d want in a New Adult romance. The characters are likable and easy to relate to. They have their own drama and stress that is real and easy to understand. The raw emotion each of them have is something that you cannot help but love. Kat and Alec are two of my favorite characters, ever. They remind me so much of my best friend and her husband it’s not even funny.Megan Erickson’s writing is witty, clever and just fun. I really enjoyed the fact that Make It Count is written in the third person. While I enjoy first person, sometimes it’s just time for a change. More NA needs to be written like this.And on a side note that’s related to Make It Count but not really relevant to anything important- I love that this book is set in Maryland. Usually whenever I see something set in my state it’s usually in Baltimore and used to show a dirty, gritty city full of crime. Not so much with Make It Count. The towns Megan used may be fictional, but they definitely bring to mind real places for me. I think it just added to the overall feel of the book for me.
