Fake Dates and Mooncakes by Sher Lee

lighthearted fast-paced

3.0

Scrummy food descriptions and the mc Dylan is a real sweetie - his character has real drive and purpose which helps him feel very rounded. Theo was less compelling to me - his arc is a bit wishy washy and I don't find it very interesting to just solve all the book's problems with money. The whole fake dating set up doesn't really hold water either. There's no reason you couldn't just be dating!!
 As an aside, it's weird reading this as someone with multiple food allergies when a whole plot aspect revolves around someone being an asshole over their food not being allergy friendly and that being leveraged against Dylan's family. Sorry to say, not keen on how that aspect was handled!
