These books are not necessarily the best written novels but the stories are always fun and you know you will get a happy ending. I think some adult romances could take a note from these books b/c they are characterized well which is much of the battle in writing any novel since you want your characters, for the most part, to be endearing and relatable. ( ) Sometimes you just want to read something fun that doesn’t require a lot of complicated thinking. Sometimes you just wanted to zip through a book, or maybe not. I love having the “chick lit” books on my shelf as an option for the quick and easy read. You need to mix it up every once in a while. Sasha was an interesting character or rather her money-making hobby was interesting. I don’t remember being boy-crazy in high school and it wasn’t so long ago that I might be remembering things incorrectly. Therefore, I don’t think I would’ve had much use for a match maker, but I think a lot of us could use it now that we’re adults. Part of me despises the idea that you have to be in a relationship to truly be happy, but then the “Disney brain-washed” part of me loves the idea that there’s someone for everyone. I did have an issue with the fact that all of this was taking place in high school. I understand having a high school sweetheart, but don’t push that crap on kids. They’re young and should be having fun, not settling down. Derek was just okay. I was fairly unimpressed with him as the heart-throb though. He didn’t really do anything for the story. It was actually the perfect example of an author telling you something versus showing you. I felt like I was being told that Derek was an amazing guy and he had intense chemistry with Sasha, but I wasn’t seeing any of that come through in the story itself. Overall I did enjoy Miss Match. It was a fun, quick read that gave me a much needed break from the many serious books I’ve been reading. I would recommend Miss Match more for the middle grade, high school crowd or for someone specifically looking for a light read that takes place in high school.

I’d never read a Simon Romantic Comedy. And I’m not really sure why, because I love a good Romantic Comedy! Miss Match maybe just be the start of something....The characters were fun. Sasha's character was portrayed very realistically. I couldn’t think of a better leading man than Derek and I even liked Sasha’s sister Maddie, who I initially thought I would hate since she was the perfect cheerleader type.The relationships between the characters, while it may have been typical, was still very entertaining! Wendy did an awesome job creating such a fun novel! And I’m looking forward to more!If you’re looking for a cute, quick, fun read, look no further than Miss Match! geen besprekingen | voeg een bespreking toe
