Build a Girlfriend is fun and chaotic with lots of summer vibes. It took me a little bit to really get into it, but once I got used to the characters & their personalities I started to fly through it. The loud and chaotic family trope is one that is overwhelming for me and right out of the gate you’re thrown into the Hernandez family madness. Once I got used to it, I enjoyed seeing the back and forth between all of the aunties. There are quite a few moments that tug at your heartstrings with several of the characters, not just our main character, Amelia. She’s lovable and funny. She’s also clumsy. The secondhand embarrassment I felt was crippling and thank god for little sisters because Sofia was perfection. *chefs kiss* As far as Amelia’s history with Leon, you’re left in the dark about specifics for most of the book & it felt like the right balance of him being this nice guy, but can he be trusted. I was dying to find out what happened because it’s difficult to dislike him. He’s a fantastic book boyfriend. 

Thank you to Simon & Schuster for sending me an advance copy & thank you to NetGalley for the e-arc.
