You Have a Match
by Emma Lord
I adored Emma Lord's debut, TWEET CUTE, and was anticipating another stellar YA read with her latest release, YOU HAVE A MATCH. Verdict: it was delightful, charming and full of soul.
Thanks to unexpected DNA test results, we are treated to a wonderfully witty Parent Trap retelling at summer camp. Hayley Mills & Camp Inch forever.
It's part coming-of-age with a bit of romance and a lot of complex "newfound family" navigation. These various points were cleverly woven together with a wonderful mix of heart, humor, sweetness and struggle. Lord writes teenagers so authentically. The characters are dealing with some hefty issues- grief, friendship, adoption, sisterhood, romance, high school and next phase of life pressure. Once I started reading, I didn’t put it down because. I was invested in the growth of the main character, Abby. So much so that it almost felt like I was at camp with her, sleeping on the top bunk in Phoenix Cabin.
Thank you to St. Martin's Press, Wednesday Books and NetGalley for the free advanced reading copy.
