Not Okay Cupid by Heidi R. Kling

4.0

I was a bit skeptical if I will like this book when I first saw it in Entangled Teen’s request list but I was seriously craving for some light and fluffy read and THIS IS EXACTLY WHAT THIS BOOK HAS BROUGHT ME.

I wasn’t really a fan of the “falling-for-your-bestfriend’s-brother” trope. I haven’t read that much books that falls into this category and I’m not a big fan of third-wheels!!!

This book got me hooked from the get-go, I adored the main characters, Hazel and Felix. Hazel is smart, charming and very relatable. I love her relationship with her mom! It’s open and honest.

Felix might be presented as a bad boy, but this guy surprised me big time. I love that he actually cares for both ladies, Hazel and his sister Kimmy, but he chose to side with Hazel because she was the victim, but I think it’s more because of his feelings towards Hazel. His bad boy personality wasn’t actually shown, it was just told and from what I’ve seen in him from the start, he’s actually a softie and I personally loved reading from his POV.

I love the chemistry between Felix and Hazel and I truly enjoyed reading their romance in alternating POVs. It helped a lot for the story to flow and develop.

The writing style was simple but very effective. It made me swoon many times that I expected. Honestly, this book was such a big awesome surprise! It’s like I was given more than I expected and I really appreciated it! I definitely recommend this book if you’re craving for a light, fast read with lots of fluff!
