Also this book really feels like it has an identity crisis, of being a book for adults or a book for teens. So much of it feels out of touch with actual 2021 era teenagers, while simultaneously feeling too immature to be adult fiction. It read like a classic 'this is the book I wished I had growing up'.

Whenever I read a YA contemporary novel, I always ask myself whether or not my teenaged self would've fallen in love with it. And I'm happy to report that this was just the type of story I would've devoured, obsessed over, and reread a hundred times. It has everything I love about YA contemporary: humor, sweetness, and a whole lot of heart.
At the core of this book was a touching family story that had me hooked from the beginning. I was very intrigued by the mystery surrounding Abby and Savvy's families, and seeing them navigate their newfound relationship was really fun. There was pranking, sisterly-talks, scheming, and fun summer camp vibes that reminded me a lot of The Parent Trap.
Though the romance wasn't the main part of the book, it was still very cute and complimented Abby's overall journey well. Sweet Leo stole my heart from the moment we met him, and his relationship with Abby felt really special. They definitely gave me all the warm and fuzzy feelings.
You Have a Match is YA coming-of-age at its best, and I'd highly recommend it to everyone! Abby was such a fun perspective to read from, and I was rooting for her from page one in all aspects of her journey. A beautiful story about family, love, and figuring out your place in the world, you won't regret picking this one up!
