I will admit that I feel very torn with Some Kind of Blunderful - I love Livy Hart's writing but her books have been a toss up for how much I enjoy them/love them. While I ADORED Planes, Trains and All the Feels - I didn't connect to Some Kind of Blunderful as much as I hoped.

I love meet cutes, but I also love meet disasters and this one had me laughing - yet, even after the meet disaster, Mia and Alex continue to run into each other every where they go. Including being set up on a blind date.
I love the banter between the two MCs and I definitely felt their chemistry. The spice was fantastic (Livy Hart knows how to write spice!) and I really appreciated that the third act breakup was realistic and showed growth & communication between the characters.

Huge thank you to NetGalley and Entangled Publishing for the ARC & thank you for providing #joyfulchaosbookclub with widgets! My opinion is 100% my own.

I really enjoyed this debut from Rachel Runya Katz - it felt like a good coming of age, second-chance romance between two people who were previously summer camp crushes turned enemies.

Liyah and Daniel are both mixed races and Jewish - so while they have a lot in common, Liyah hasn't forgiven Daniel for something that he did to her at summer camp. But then they are thrown into a couple situations that forces them to work together & causes the chemistry to heat up.

I loved the growth & development of the characters as their friends w/benefits relationship started and their friendship grew. I absolutely loved the representation for the Jewish religion, characters of color, and bisexual rep.

Overall, it was one that I really enjoyed - it had humor, emotion, and a great story.

Thank you to St Martin's Press and NetGalley for this ARC in exchange for my honest review.
