Perfect on Paper
Book Review
I enjoyed the way that this book is so convincing and believable
This was my first time reading a young adult romance story, as I generally gravitate more towards adventure or fantasy books. However, I couldn’t have asked for a better introduction to this particular story genre than Perfect on Paper by Sophie Gonzales.
This book is about a girl called Darcy Phillips who runs a relationship advice agency through a locker, and nobody knows she is behind it. Until her secret is discovered by a boy called Alexander Brougham, who will keep it only if she can help him win his girlfriend back.
Perfect on Paper is written from the perspective of Darcy Phillips as she struggles in her complicated love life, and I enjoyed the way that this book is so convincing and believable.
I would recommend this book to teenagers and young adults. It is a wonderful book to read and easy to enjoy, though hard to put down!
About the Book
This queer rom-com for teenagers is from Aussie author Sophie Gonzales . A bisexual girl who gives anonymous love advice to her school friends is hired by the hot new kid to help him get his ex back. What could possibly go wrong?
Witty, heart-warming and totally believable this story will be enjoyed by even the most skeptical romantic.
