In this book we follow multiple people who have taken the Match Your DNA Test. As a result they end up in various interesting situations. I think the author did a great job depicting different possible scenarios people could end up with if the test would have been real. The concept is easy to understand which makes it an easy and fast read.
I read this book in audio format and I sometimes found it difficult to remember the characters especially in the beginning. The book alternates between the five characters but because there are many main characters (five) I was often confused and needed to remember again what was going on in their story. Because there are five characters you also need some time to get familiar with all of them but don't have time enough to get truly attach to the characters.
Every POV ends with a small cliff-hanger which keeps you interested and all of the POVs got a plot twist I didn't expect. This made it feel like you are reading a thriller. Overall, an enjoyable, reflective and fast read.

Minor: Sexual content
The book was wedged against something everyone wants in life - true love. We are programmed to believe in it and yearn for it and chase it since we are little with fairytales (though they are way toooooo sexist for my comfort). I think most people would be glad to pay a fee for a guaranteed answer. I might. Actually, I probably would - assuming it would be affordable. But that's why I don't think it would ever be true or work even if it was - because aside from all the consequences explored in this book, I am also sure capitalist greed would completely drive the market and would either make it unaffordable and/or some form of corruption would occur and this book would be prescient. The science could be flawless, but humanity would get in our own way. We always do.
