A magical app that translates what boys really mean when they speak and a 12 year old matchmaker, what could go wrong? In this modern-day retelling of Emma by Jane Austen, the story follows Emmy, a girl who just wants to matchmake couples up. When a match for her best friend goes wrong, and she discovers the magical new app iSpeakBoy! which translates what boys mean when they really talk, Emmy takes it into her hands to try and make as many matches as possible. Too bad things start going wrong and now Emmy has to figure out how to really fix all the damage she’s done. Throw in old ex-best friend and neighbor, Grant Knightly, a shy artist Robby Martinez, and Emmy’s mom and a certain Mr. Weston, and the drama goes on!

This was definitely an interesting take on the classic Emma story. It had a lot of the classic elements while incorporating new ones. I think it would be a fun read for middle-grade readers!
