3.5 AVERAGE
3.5 AVERAGE
This was a very middle-of-the-pack read for me. Meaning it's not a bad book and I enjoyed reading it, but it's also not a great book as it suffers from clunky development.
The idea of a matchmaking service led by cupids, how bad-A those cupids are, and the big bad are just a few of the really cool ideas that are contained within. Unfortunately, they're joined by a whole bunch of tropes and cliches that I am so over. They brought down the entire average of the book.
Cupid and Cal are awesome. I can't express how much I want to know more about Crystal and her adventures. But Lila is the stereotypical average girl that turns out to be awesome that I'm really getting tired of. Maybe if there had been more pages to develop her...
Overall, I'm not mad I read this book and there are some fun elements that I'd actually love to explore in a second volume, but I'm not shouting about it from the rooftops.

{ I was sent the arc of this book to review }
Cupids Match had me thinking this would be a YA romance that would be overly cheesy, and no action in this plot; but I was beyond wrong. This book had humor, romance, action, and everything I wasn’t expecting. Absolutely would recommend to anyone. Already drowning in my need to read the next one.

This entire series is incredible. It's links to mythology and accentuates the well- thought out and over-arcing story of Lila Black and the Cupids. Amazing!
1/5 stars. I won’t spend time reviewing this book. There were so many plot holes and misinformation about mythology. Not to mention the romance that is the foundation for this book was absolutely atrocious. Disappointed but not surprised. Thought I was going to be reading a fun, fast paced and cheesy romance. This was not it.

Ha sido una experiencia brutal!! Me encanta ese mix the Vampire Diaries y Percy Jackson, es lo mejor.
Un libro super entretenido con aventura y romance. Además de que había unos giros inesperados impresionantes que no me esperaba, claro que había otros que si.
Los personajes me han parecido genial, con bastante drama pero con vidas reales. Lo único que me hubiera gustado más en el libro es que hubiera más ambientación, me encantaría ver cómo son los sitios mitológicos y sobrenaturales.
Personajes célebres de la mitología como Pandora salen y sus mitos son una pasada como lo ha interpretado.
Haré la reseña más larga en mi blog, pero en resumen, es un libro entretenido, con una buena estructura, aunque necesitaba que pasaran más días entre una cosa y otra, lectura rápida y que no se anda con rodeos para ir al grano. Tiene mucho enganche, sobre todo los personajes y el mundo tan genial sacado de la mitología.

This book was provided as an e-arc by NetGalley.
I loved the idea. It was unique at least for me.I liked the mythology and the way the author used it.
The story itself was a mixed bag.I liked part 1 and 3 but didn't like part 2 or 4.I loved the first 30% cause it was just fun and we didn't reach the death drama part.Part 3 was the action part and I liked it.Part 2 was a little boring and the last part aka the ending was okay but I think it was lacking.
I loveeed grumpy Cal.I shipped Cal and Lila and I know it was hard to happen but that's me

but couldn't believe that he would betray them and I was glad that I was true
Thanks to Netgalley for providing me with an ARC in exchange for an honest review.
I really like mythology, so I had to read this book. It is very original and the characters are great.
I was slightly disappointed by the ending for several reasons:
- We only then saw Medusa, Pandora etc. but I feel like they could've done more for the story.
- Suddenly everyone can get a second match, which wasn't before, but it isn't really explained how and why. I mean, I think it's because of Venus being gone, but I would've liked to hear more about that.
- We don't know who Lila's going to end up with.
Favorite line:
''What is a fairytale without a monster to defeat?''
Overal I really enjoyed reading this book, but it's a 3-star for me.

I had to do this for 2014 me… but man was it a slog by the end 😅
Ich habe Everlasting Love verschlungen! Es ist so lange auf meinem SuB gelegen und ich bereue es, dass ich es nicht schon früher gelesen habe. Lila die Protagonistin hat mir so gut gefallen, genauso, wie die anderen Charaktere. Die Idee ist meiner Meinung nach einzigartig und auch die Handlung und alle Wendungen waren extrem spannend.
