You Have a Match by Emma Lord
Goodreads Synopsis:
When Abby signs up for a DNA service, it’s mainly to give her friend and secret love interest, Leo, a nudge. After all, she knows who she is already: Avid photographer. Injury-prone tree climber. Best friend to Leo and Connie…although ever since the B.E.I. (Big Embarrassing Incident) with Leo, things have been awkward on that front.
But she didn’t know she’s a younger sister.
When the DNA service reveals Abby has a secret sister, shimmery-haired Instagram star Savannah Tully, it’s hard to believe they’re from the same planet, never mind the same parents—especially considering Savannah, queen of green smoothies, is only a year and a half older than Abby herself.
The logical course of action? Meet up at summer camp (obviously) and figure out why Abby’s parents gave Savvy up for adoption. But there are complications: Savvy is a rigid rule-follower and total narc. Leo is the camp’s co-chef, putting Abby’s growing feelings for him on blast. And her parents have a secret that threatens to unravel everything.
But part of life is showing up, leaning in, and learning to fit all your awkward pieces together. Because sometimes, the hardest things can also be the best ones.
My Review:
I really enjoyed Tweet Cute, so I was very hyped for her next book. While this one was cute, it was just your typical YA contemporary filled with some drama and some romance.
The romance was frustrating because both characters had feelings for each other but neither one would tell the other person. There was also another friend who caused problems with this as well. I think this is typical for a YA novel, but if this was the case it needed more angst. I couldn’t feel the chemistry between this couple. I wanted them to get together just so all the back and forth would be done.
The main plot of this book is definitely the sisters finding out that they are related and trying to find out why and how they were separated. This part of the book was interested, but seemed very drawn out as well.
3 stars
