A review by readintowonderland
Mismatched by Anne Camlin

4.0

This one was definitely a short and sweet moment. I will have to read this again in the future with the illustrations because the story definitely felt a bit lacking without them. I loved the variety of queer representation in the book actually written by a queer person. 

With the shortness of the book it was a bit of a challenge to follow who was who without all of the pictures. That said, all of the drama made the time actually jam-packed with things going on. If anything, it felt over-abbreviated because it was so short. I wanted more from all of their stories and developing their relationships more.

The characterization in the book was pretty fantastic. All of the subtle nods to queer culture felt affirming but natural. All of the couples in the end seemed well-matched (pun kinda intended). 

In sum, I'd love to see a more fleshed-out version of the story. If you are able to read a print or digital copy you would probably have a better reading experience in total. The story itself was cute and well-written. 

I received this book as an arc from NetGalley. My review is honest and voluntary
