Salty, Bitter, Sweet by Mayra Cuevas

3.0

The writing here is great, that's why it got three stars, but I hated the main character. There was an anxiety/overachiever thing that I would have been able to empathize with if she wasn't so self-centered. The romance was a love/hate thing, except she was the only one hating - so I couldn't figure out why he liked her and felt none of the chemistry that should've existed there. The good parts: writing, the relationship with the grandmother whose loss she is mourning, and the food descriptions. Also, who is that nice to the woman who a)stole your dad b)immediately married him c)is pregnant with his child but is then so mean to everyone else?
