A review by booksandladders
Not Okay Cupid by Heidi R. Kling
3.0
Disclaimer: I received a free copy of this book in exchange for an honest review.
From the summary of this one I should have ate this one up: fake relationship, perfect girl falling for the bad boy, FAKE RELATIONSHIP. It was a recipe for success...except, it wasn't. I had a hard time connecting to the characters and thought that there was too much in between the fake relationship stuff that made it kind of blah.
I had to like double and triple check that I was 1. actually reading Felix's point of view and that we weren't still in Hazel's pov because he wasn't written like any guy I know, and 2. his age. I was so confused: was he the same age as Hazel or older? It wasn't super clear throughout the majority of the story. At some points he was made to seem as though he was in college and then other times it seemed like he was a freshman in high school. I got whiplash trying to figure out his age.
I did like the fake relationship and that as they got to "know" one another, they started to realize they had true feelings for one another. But I thought it was kind of weird that they didn't know SOME of the things they learned along the way. Like that Felix at least had a job.
Otherwise this was a fun, fluffy contemporary. And it made me smile so what more could I possibly ask for?
