tinysierra 's review for:

3.5
funny hopeful lighthearted medium-paced
Loveable characters: Yes

The 99 Boyfriends of Micah Summers is cute and fluffy.

I loved the graphics! 

The scavenger hunt to find Boy 100 at the beginning of the book was fun to read. 

I feel like some of the important bonding moments were just kind of… montaged over? Like, Micah would go, “Grant/Elliot and I hung and got into a rhythm.” Great, but I wanted to see a little more of that on page. 

Micah kinda reminded me of Marinette Dupain-Cheng. He’s got a very idealized outlook on people and love. A head in the clouds, optimistic, fantasy outlook. I couldn’t entirely relate to his hopeless romantic demeanor. 

There is closed door sex and kissing. Micah describes the taste of spit.

If you like this book, Meet Cute Diary by Emery Lee has a similar premise.
