Okay, Cupid by Mason Deaver

3.5

---

i love mason deaver's writing and this was a really fun, romcom-y book that anyone who loves lighthearted, fluffy romance would love. jude was a great main character and i loved seeing their story progress. i loved having a nonbinary character who just was themself and seeing them be so unconditionally loved and accepted by everyone in their life. and their love story with huy was so cute!! overall, i had a good time reading this book, but parts of it fell a little flat for me. while i really liked the concept of cupids out in the world, getting people together, the trajectory of jude's duty to their role to wanting to quit felt forced at times, like there wasn't any reason at all for them to stay as a cupid and you were waiting the whole book for them to figure it out. i did like the ending being kind of ambiguous because i loved being surprised, but i also would've liked a little more clarification on what happened. did jude and leah lose their memories? are they not cupids anymore? regardless, i still had a great time and would definitely recommend this book to someone looking for a fun YA romance. i received an ARC from netgalley in exchange for an honest review.
