SarahRita | 2 reseñas más. | Aug 11, 2021 | It could have gone south easily, but this story stayed solid and snarky all the way to the end. I read it in one sitting and very much liked the mix of characters. There will be many teens who identify with Darcy's living situation and her gritty determination to succeed. Others will relate to her because of an addicted sibling, or because they've been abandoned by a parent, but still feel a connection. In sum, this has wide appeal potential for teen readers.

sennebec | Jan 6, 2020 | 3.5 stars out of 5. I just want to start with that. 4 if I have to use a whole number, and here is why:
I enjoyed this story. I was SO excited for the concept: a world where you see in black and white until you find your soulmate. And a soulmate isn’t necessarily romantic. However, the story didn’t quite live up to the premise.
Lindsey Ouimet, the writer, decided not to change anything from how we live to how life would be slightly different if only 60% of the adult population can see in color. And, there would be a number of difference. I was looking forward to seeing that. I was looking forward to seeing how everyone matches their clothes, if those who can see adjust for those who can’t or if the majority rules. How, once you can see, it is so hard not to mention it in passing or how it suddenly is hard to comprehend not only the colors but if they actually affect your life. This story, though, revolves around Libby and Drew, and how Libby is trying to understand why her Match is in juvie. And if she can help him.
What saved this book is how Ouimet handled the relationship. It was subtle, and wary. Different in how it approached and created the relationship, but still, follows the current trend of teen novels, though the romance isn’t as mushing – excluding one scene. But, the idea is what drew me to the book – had me requesting to read it – and left me disappointed. The characters are strong, they have some depth, and it isn’t a long book. A good quick read if you are looking for something lighthearted with a touch of sweet.

I really enjoyed the talks with Michaela and Levi. Michaela and her siblings. I liked how Michaela and her mother were able to resolve things at the end.
