Playing with Matches by Georgia Beers

3.0

I enjoyed this book and it had multiple twist that killed me.

Even though this is a very used trope I feel it was done differently.

Even though they both have crushes on each other they dont follow the typical fake dating path, IE hooking up while fake dating, are actually dating and just being idiots, blowing everything up in the end (no it happens faster than that).

One of my favorite things in this book is that some of the mini plots arent overused cliches. With some of these (which i all love) it has a lot of the same themes parental issues, lying to your friends, blah blah blah, but the dynamic between Liz’s parents and Coris family life is different. It was a nice change. I really liked how it all played out.

I wish the tension would’ve been built up more though. A little more detail about their relationship.
