The Perfect Guy Doesn't Exist by Sophie Gonzales

4.0

This was a really cute and easy read! I would say it hits more of a younger YA audience but that does not change the fact that it's a good story! I enjoyed the past scenes and all the scenes with Mack and Ivy, while their issues felt a bit juvenile - this is bang on for how a lot of younger teenagers act. The scenes with Weston were a little hit or miss for me, some were really good and others did end up feeling a little silly. My favourite thing was probably seeing how both Ivy and Mack grew from their past mistakes, we love some nice character development.

It's also clear Sophie has a great understanding of the world of fanfic and is part of that community - which helps a lot as it means there are none of those vibes where an author just tries to co-opt something that's hip with the kids but doesn't fully understand it. Sophie is undoubtedly one of us!!!

Thank you to Wednesday Books and Sophie for a digital arc in exchange for an honest review.
