I loved this book! It was a cute, lighthearted romance and I loved the characters and relationships. The concept that opposites do, in fact, attract was fun and added a nice touch to the story!

If you are in the mood for romance books (this rarely happens to me), this is a good one that blends some nice relationship building with cultural elements, while also being rather cute and without spicy content.
๐ The good:
The discussions about traditions related to life, love and death, as well as some of the heavier topics and quotes were a great addition. The character development was interesting to follow and somewhat wholesome, while the story had some plot twists that made me want to read more.
๐ The not-so-good:
The romance side was obviously rather predictable and overly cheesy, though this is a characteristic of the genre. The female main character didn't have the best personality out there though, being overly paranoid and competitive, judging her love interest quite a lot. The book also dragged at times, as the middle part was not that interesting and many things were crammed in the end, but my interest was already lower until I got to that point. The narrator was not the best out there either.

I really enjoyed reading this book and learning about Chinese traditions, especially the Chinese Zodiac.
Although the book is from Oliviaโs POV, Bennett was my favorite character. Olivia could be too stubborn and kinda annoying at times. I liked the mix of traditional and modern elements and how you can take traditions make it your own.
Overall very fun, lighthearted, entertaining read. Recommend.

I love everything zodiac-related, add in enemies to lovers and I was sold on Lunar Love. This novel was so much fun and I was giggling at so many moments. I also learned so much while listening to this book! Olivia and Bennett were the perfect match even if Olivia didn't believe that at first.
I really wish the author would've given more of a warning before the death in the last 25% of this novel.There was NO reason that Liv's grandma should've died. I mean there was.... And it did add significance to the story, but I still wish she didn't die at the end. I probably would've given this a 4.5 star rating without that death.
