Don't Date Rosa Santos by Nina Moreno

5.0

I loved "Don't Date Rosa Santos" probably a little too much. But at the same time, I related to Rosa a lot (due to her overachiever attitude, list-making tendencies, and overall work-orientated mindset), totally fell for the love interest, Alex Aquino, and was enthralled by all the Latinx culture contained within!

I enjoyed how this book had such a clickbait romance title, but in reality was more about dealing with family drama, overcoming grief, and making your own decisions in life. It was really fun to see how Rosa navigated through the many situations she found herself thrust into. I really enjoyed reading about Rosa and her family due to how realistic and not stereotypical the Santos family was.

I would recommend this book to anyone that enjoys a good romance, wants to see authentic Latinx representation, or just wants a cozy summer read with a serious side to it.
