You’d Be Mine is a heartfelt and beautifully written young adult romance that explores themes of identity, friendship, and first love. The story follows two girls whose unexpected connection challenges their perceptions of themselves and each other, delivering a tender, authentic portrayal of LGBTQ+ relationships. Hahn’s sensitive and lyrical prose brings emotional depth to the characters' journeys, making You’d Be Mine a poignant and uplifting read for anyone who loves stories about self-discovery and the courage to embrace love in all its forms

I read the synopsis and thought this was going to be a great read. I love stories revolving around country music and romances. This book had those elements, I found myself not caring very much. Briefly towards the end I just wanted to put it down.
On to the next!

Thank you for providing a copy of You'd Be Mine by Erin Hahn. I initially took a break from it, intending to return later, as I couldn't get into it at the time. Unfortunately, I’ve since lost interest in revisiting it. I appreciate the opportunity and look forward to exploring future titles that align more with my current reading preferences.

Really enjoyed this romance. I appreciate when a romance has a little more to it like this one did.the main character is someone I really empathized with.

What a great story! I loved reading Annie and Clay's story. Annie is a country singer trying to get away. Clay is a country superstar who has more issues than he should at his young age. In order to stay with his recording label, Clay has to convince Annie to tour with him. Clay happens to be able to sweet talk Annie into touring with him, but as the tour goes on, the closer their relationship happens to get. After Annie's parents tragic death, the one thing Annie does not want is a relationship. Fans want more than tour mates. Can Annie and Clay keep it just business? Great read! Thank you to Ms. Hahn and NetGalley for the opportunity to read and review this book.

This book is a great fit for young adult readers who enjoy stories about country music, famous families, and the complexities of love and friendship, all wrapped up in a contemporary, romantic enemies-to-lovers trope.

This book is a good debut – nothing crazy happens, but it’s a good romance with emotional depth and mostly likable characters. But that’s about it – it’s just going to be another teenage romance I read where alcohol was involved. Speaking of the alcohol, though, the whole getting Clay sober thing was too quick. He should have gone to actual rehab, not detoxed for like three days on a random Michigan farm and been all better. Frankly, I’m surprised he was singing in a bar 6 months later. And why did the guy never go to therapy? That should have been something the label forced on him before they took him back. And him being destructive was why he and Annie didn’t get together right away, I think, so magically, six months later he’s sober and all their problems are fixed? I would not trust a 19 year old to just be fine after that without some serious rehab and therapy. He clearly was better, but singing at a bar has to be hella triggering. There is even a line where he says “It’s better if I don’t even start” drinking – yeah, man, because you’re an alcoholic! But I digress. I just feel like that should have been explored more, which would have made the overall story more memorable and them finally getting together more powerful.
3.5 stars

I really wanted to like this book. The synopsis held so much promise, but the book failed to deliver as much as I hoped for from it. I enjoyed it well enough, but with a few tweaks it could have been an even more enjoyable read.

First book that hooked me enough to finish in one sitting! I really liked this book—very yee haw too. Very addicting paired with tragic but brilliant characters you can’t help but root for, both separately and to end up together! Would highly recommend if you’re looking for a contemporary read.

I adored this contemporary YA debut by Erin Hahn, which feels to me like a great book to recommend for fans of the current DAISY JONES AND THE SIX TV show. I thought the voice was very compelling and it included such a cast of lovable, flawed characters. the setting was so vibrant as a music touring book with also a lot of love for the Midwest. One of my favorites!

You'd Be Mine truly had everything a music centered novel should have.
Swagger, swoon, an over abundance of feelings, lots of music, a little bit of star crossed lovers, and a love story that without a doubt spoke to me.

I loved everything about this book. I loved it so much that my daughter wanted to read it and she loved it as well. It was just one of those feel good books and it was a very quick read. I highly recommend.

This book didn't really catch my interest. I ended up DNFing it about 20% in. The story and characters were fine they just didn't seem to draw me in.

You'd Be Mine was a fun read about an up and coming country music star. It gave off Nashville (the show) vibes. The romance at the center was frustrating and sweet at the same time.

I enjoyed reading this book I just never got around to writing a review. I will continue to read works by this author

3.5/5 stars
Really loved the side characters/ensemble cast in this book. Would high-key read a Kacey & Fitz romance, honestly. Didn't love the parental suicide storyline, like at all. I really struggled with that one as it felt...I dunno. It felt weird to me.

Not personally my reading preference as famous people in books normally put me off however this book is a lovely romance novel that delves quite deep into emotions. It is a very charming read.

Thank you to Netgalley and publisher for sending this book to me in 2018, I was a terrible reviewer at that time and had not reviewed books until July of this year (2021). I apologize for the VERY late review but I have read this book and can give it a proper review.
You'd Be Mine is about two singers: Annie Mathers, a country sweetheart who is up-and-coming in the country music business and Clay Coolidge, an established singer/star who is starting to fade. Annie has been warned about Clay and to not get mixed up with him and his reputation. But the stars align and both go on a grand tour together creating music and unexpected chemistry together.
I read this book a while back and I adore Erin Hahn's writing and character development. The story felt realistic in an unrealistic setting, and had many bittersweet moments between Annie and Clay and their families. I enjoyed the story, the writing, and plan on reading future books by Erin Hahn.
4.5 stars

Annie Mather is the child of two country music stars, and Clay Coolidge is the newest hit in the country world. The problem is Annie wants to be nothing like her parent's fame turned them into and because of that has stayed away from it for the most part, and Clay reminds her soo much of her parents because of all the drinking he does.
Annie has two of her best friends and bandmates around for the ride, but Clay is all alone beside's one of his brother's old friends who keeps an eye on him.
The two of them together on stage are an amazing team and their voices blend well but outside of that they are being forced together by management and because of that has they are both confused about their own feelings and what they want out of life.
Can the two of them make it through the summer and get new recording contracts? Or will one of them self-destruct and the other turn away from it all? You'll have to read the book to find out.
Overall I enjoyed this book. Annie and Clay were two characters that despite both of them having lots of inner demons ended up making a good team in the end. They brought out the best in each other while also helping the other one deal with things from the past that they were pushing down. This book isn't an easy one to read as it deals with drugs, alcohol, and death but it's one that didn't shy away from the hard stuff and actually dealt with the problems those three things can create.
I want to read more by this author in the future as I did enjoy this book and hope the author dealt with such difficult problems. It was all done so well while also showing the realities of addiction and pressure from a young age.

What a wonderful surprise!
I loved this book. Way more than I thought I would and more than what I expected. There was a happiness that came with reading the story, the giddiness of when you love something, and an enchantment that seemed to envelope everything around me like Alice must have felt once she ventured into Wonderland.
The rockstar genre has been a favorite genre of mine, and a story about two country singers fits nicely into it.
Besides its being an emotional young adult novel, this book has a fantastic plot and likeable characters. The raw emotions that were expressed through the pages of this book were surprising.
You'd Be Mine has everything one would expect in a novel about music. The book was an emotional rollercoaster with expansive feelings and a budding romance.
I loved the whole cast of characters. They were sweet, charming, relatable, and likable, as well as caring to one another and supportive. The book also has its share of emotional turmoil but it was really satisfying how this issue is handled by the author.
It's a pretty amazing debut novel.
What really won me over in this book was the writing. I absolutely loved how witty, charming and smart it all was. The plot alone won't win me over if the writing doesn't make a good impression on me. From the first page on, I found myself HOOKED by You'd Be Mine!
If you love young adult romance stories that overwhelm you with emotions, this novel is a must-read. I laughed and cried while reading this novel, and cannot wait to find out what happens next.
Thank you to the publisher and NetGalley for providing me a copy in exchange for an honest review.
