» LOVE, DELIVERED by ERIN A. CRAIG «
★★☆☆☆
After moving to a new town admist the COVID, Millie no knows no one in her new town. Lacking in groceries, she orders take out, meeting Luka in the process.

This was cute, but nothing special.

» THE SOCIALLY DISTANT DOG-WALKING BRIGADE by BILL KONIGSBERG «
★★★☆☆
Kaz first met Daxon while walking their dogs. As they begin to walk their dogs together, they form a connection.

I love how awkward Kaz is, and I can totally relate with him.

» ONE DAY by SAJNI PATEL «
★★★★☆
Bobby’s house has never been louder. Since her family is stuck at home all the time, her only refuge is the balcony. Too bad Neal is out there playing guitar, and when Bobby gets annoyed and throws her shoe. He “extorts” her for her number.

I loved the banter between the two. Neal carried this story,

» THE RULES OF COMEDY by AURIANE DESOMBRE «
★☆☆☆☆
After her school closes, Harper no longer has the chance to talk to Alyssa anymore. So in an attempt to talk to her, Harper decides to make TikToks to prove that she is funny and to impress Alyssa.

I don’t really like the TikTok aspect of the story. I know Harper is around 15, but she comes off as naive and really young.

» THE NEW BOY NEXT DOOR by NATASHA PRESTON «
★★★★★
When new boy moves into the house next to Quinn’s, she can’t help but be entranced by Archer. As they begin to chat on the tree that borders their houses, they form and instant connection.

I absolutely love this story. Something about the fact that they both are infatuated and intimidated by each other, or it’s simply the chemistry they have together!

» LOVE WITH A SIDE OF FORTUNE by JENNIFER YEN «
★★☆☆☆
After Michelle’s mother takes her to a fortune teller, she is told that a boy born in winter would break her heart. But as Evan spends more and more time at her parents restaurant, they from a connection. If only Michelle knew when he was born…

This was cute. I’ve been permanently traumatized by the fact that I’ve also had to work at my parent’s restaurant without pay, but if there were some cute boys to make it all better maybe things would’ve been different.

» THE GREEN THUMB WAR by BRITTNEY MORRIS «
★★★★☆
Billie, short for Matilda, and Sebastian live in neighboring apartment complexes. During quarentine, they begin to both grow herbs at home, and they decide to start a competition to see who can make the best thing with each of their herbs.

Another really cute story, and Sebastian made this story much better. The dual perspectives made this much better.

» STUCK WITH HER by RACHAEL LIPPINCOTT «
★★☆☆☆
Allie’s roommate, Mia, is one of the most annoying roommates you can have. She’s the type to play loud music at 3AM, eat your food, and bring to many friends around. So why does Allie, after having a nice conversation with her, feel a pull towards her?

Normally I’d love a hate-to-love, but the switch from hate to love was instantaneous and a little too easy.

» MASKED by ERIN HAHN «
★★☆☆☆
Grey and Jude have been talking through a neighborhood messaging app ever since Grey offered to make masks for his uncle’s business. They’ve never met in person, but after a small encounter at Jude’s uncle’s business, Grey thinks Jude might be the same person as the musician on America Famous.

We really didn’t get a build up of their relationship, so I really didn’t see a lot of chemistry/connection.
