Love & Other Disasters by Anita Kelly
5.0
emotional funny inspiring fast-paced
Plot or Character Driven: A mix
Strong character development: Yes
Loveable characters: Yes
Diverse cast of characters: Yes
Flaws of characters a main focus: Yes

If you are as obsessed with Chopped, Cutthroat Kitchen, Guy's Grocery Games, and other similar tv shows as I am, this is the book for you. Love & Other Disasters is set on a cooking competition show where the two main characters, London and Dahlia are competitors. They quickly form a friendship which then develops into a romantic relationship. Kelly, the author, created characters that were so realistic and I genuinely cared for and loved both of them. This title is a queer love story with nonbinary representation which also touches on some heavier topics such as forgiveness and the importance of following your dreams. If you are looking for a title to start your 2022 reading with, I highly recommend this one!
