You're a Mean One, Matthew Prince by Timothy Janovsky
4.0
Thank you NetGalley and Casablanca Books / Source Books for this eARC in exchange for an honest review.
This book was SO cute!! Matthew Prince gave me major David Rose (Schitt’s Creek) vibes, which of course, I loved!! The setting and other characters gave me an overall Schitt’s Creek feeling as well.
I enjoyed the spin on this grumpy/sunshine trope as both main characters flipped between the two roles. Their banter was part playful, part snarky, and part sexy. The way Matthew struggled with anxiety disorder and how Hector helped him during his attack melted my heart. These two are not flawless, but it’s clear they are good for each other.
My biggest gripe is the overuse of the word “dude” by Hector. I found it very distracting, however, once the reader learns why, it’s more heartwarming than irritating. I wish I had learned the reasoning sooner in the story.
I don’t want to give anything away, but I adored the healthy, healing, happy ending! I highly recommend this one for everyone’s holiday reading list!
