Love, Decoded by Jennifer Yen

4.0

I adored Jennifer Yen's debut A taste for love last year and was beyond excited for her latest YA romance featuring Gigi, James's little sister. Gigi loves to code and is working on a Quiz app for a school project when a contest and a new friend inspire her to turn the app into more of a friend matchmaking tool.

This story was full of heart, dealt with new friendships and old ones, had a little romance and super strong female in STEM rep. I really enjoyed the Jane Austen Emma vibes as Gigi tries to help all her friends find love and happiness, not realizing her own HEA might have been in front of her face the whole time.

Great on audio narrated by Annie Q, this book is perfect for fans of Jenny Han or the upcoming My Mechanical romance by Alexene Farol Follmuth that also features a young female in STEM protagonist. Bonus, Liza and James from A taste for love have a few cameos in this book.
