I don’t know why but I couldn’t finish this book. I’ll probably try to read at a later date, but who knows? I think I just wasn’t in the mood for a romance novel...
A very cute, light, and fast read. Made me really want to win the lotto lol.
Lucky in Love tells the story of Maddie, a hard-working and goal-orientated teen trying to juggle the many challenges of life. After buying a lotto ticket and winning 30 million dollars everything changes and suddenly she's not sure who to trust.
I have loved all of Kasie West's books pretty equally but I really enjoyed this premise! I thought the characters were really well done in relation to the different reactions to Maddie's win and their subsequent treatment of her, and I loved the overarching morals of balancing hard work and living life. Overall a cute, fun read.

I really am planning on going through other Kasie West books after this, but this one really just bothered me most of the story. Maddie is just the worst. The amount of money this girl spends made me so mad, and she was so naïve and ugh it was just so frustrating. It went back and forth from her being stressed about not getting into college, and then spending stupid amounts of money on unimportant things. It took her until like the last chapters to finally be like "maybe I should get some financial help?" Ew I'm just annoyed lololol
Seth tho, I liked Seth.

This is a flat 3 stars. It was okay, but definitely my least favorite of the books I have since read of hers.
Rating 3.5
I recommend if you want an easy cute predictable romance.

This was a pretty cute story. The lottery winning overshadowed a lot of it and it felt a little rushed at the end and didn’t do as good of a job with all the lottery drama and how it changes people around you as well as I had hoped for. Still cute though.
I kind of read the whole book, but I did skip many pages to finish the book faster and did skim read the pages and scenes I did not skip.
This book was such a disappointment. It may be because I absolutely fell in love with Love, Life, and the List, Kaise West's other book and I did read this one quite soon after. I did have high expectations going into this book as well so part of the reason why I did not enjoy this book was partially my fault.
This book follows a girl name Maddie who one day wins the lottery. With the money comes her no longer stressing about college payment as well as people treating her differently and wanting to be her friend because she has the money. The only person who does not seem to know about her win is Seth, who also works at the local zoo with her. For some reason Maddie also does not want to share the news with her.
First off, I love the writing. It is simple and really easy to read. Kaise West's writing is one of the things I love most about her books. Because it is so simple, it helps me read a lot faster when I am in a slump or super busy. The other thing I usually love about her books is the characters and in this book, I did not like Maddie that much. I liked before lottery Maddie, but not after lottery Maddie. I felt like she was irresponsible at times and she changes quite a lot. At the end of the book though she did learn her lesson so that is a plus. I did like Seth throughout the book, though a lot less than I expected. If I like the characters in the book, my enjoyment of the book would be so much more.
I will not lie, Maddie was the main reason why I did not like the book if I were completely honest. I expected to like her a lot more than I did and I did not think she would annoy me. I understand how she could of changed because she won the lottery and she did change in a way that made perfect sens, but it frustrated me to read about which made me end up skimming and skipping pages. At least she learned her lesson at the end.
Am I glad I read this book? Yes for sure. I will be reading Kaise West's other books in the future too. Overall it was eh to me but if you decide to pick it up, I hope you enjoy it a lot more than I did.
