You Have a Match by Emma Lord
Did not finish book. Stopped at 18%.
I've heard some really great things about this book, but I just couldn't get into it. Right from the start, it just felt awkward to me, and I never really found myself fully invested in the story. Some of the language felt very cheesy, and not at all like what kids actually say (constantly referring to the "BEI" or the weird nicknames that Abby has, both for herself and from her friends).
I didn't make it very far into the story, having stopped just before they got to camp. I was planning to read at least another chapter or two, but after spending an entire day trying to motivate myself to read and only making it 3 pages in, I realized that I was trying to force it and honestly wasn't enjoying it. Life is too short, and my TBR is far too long to push myself to read a book that doesn't bring me joy.
