The main character was not likeable at all. She allowed herself to be gullible and easily manipulated by both Henry and Ivy. Her flaws hinder me giving this book a high rating.
slow-paced
Reading this book was just frustating. Our protagonist Zara always decided to think and act the worst way possible. She was so naive, stupid and obsessed by some ideals set by society that she seemed pathetic. She fell victim to every lie and act of manipulation thrown at her which also was pretty much the entire book. It was unpossible to connect with because she was this unlikable. A person full of jelousy and insecurity. Her inner monolouges constantly made me shake my head. I couldnt stand her. All that made me judge and mistrust her narration which is definitly not the best premise to get into a story.
This also lead me to believe less what she was convinced of hence I was always more keen to believe Ivys narrative than Henrys. Ivy who led an irresponsible lifestyle and was pretty much a mess throughout seemed to be the under-dog in this affair. Her exact motives were unclear Till the end. She was rather ambigiuous although she Diving seem to be that Deep of a Person. Meanwhile the filthy rich filth Henry was a rich guy that won the protagonsists heart by throwing Money around him, caring about her that much that he cut her off from everyone and didnt hate her because her mother in an alcoholic. Everytime he did something „romantic“ I was creeped out. A rich guy impressing you with expensive shit is as romantic as scattering a week-old bread to a group of pigeons. Moreover, his ulterior motives were just too apparent to miss.
The only decent person was her ex-boyfriend Luke. Staining him in the last pages was a weird and unnecsessary choice.
The worst of all was Amira. Always giving the worst advice without knowing the situation. Why would you trust her opinion on people she hasnt seen and moments she didnt live through. Another unlikable person full of judgment & prejudices and full of herself.
Storywise it was predictable and you could see the twists coming miles ahead. The most reveals were also most unneeded ones. Parts were too dark and disturbing too read for me but longing for a closure of this mess I had to continue reading. Something about the thriller plot didnt fit with the characters though. The mystery felt off. It was entertaining though. The ending was underwhelming and too much was left open.
To the question wether to Trust your best friend or fiancee: I‘d have to answer with these two toxic personalities should rather grow a brain and a backbone to think and act for yourself. Also I dont know why this book is called „the perfect match“ because I absolutly see no perfect match here…
