Synopsis

From the bestselling author of I WISH YOU ALL THE BEST, the story of a cupid who thinks they know everything about love... until they fall in love themselves.As a cupid, Jude thinks they understand love a little bit more than the average human. It makes sense -- Jude's been studying love their whole teen life. And, yes, there have been some bumps in the road, and they're currently on probation for doing something that they absolutely, definitely shouldn't have done... but they're ready to prove they can make matches without ever getting involved.Only... Jude's next assignment isn't about setting up two adults. No, this time Jude has to go to high school, with kids their own age. And the assignment is a tough one: two best friends who are meant to be more than just best friends... but who aren't currently speaking to each other after a huge falling out. Jude thinks they've got this one all under control, and that they won't get involved whatsoever.Which proves that maybe Jude hasn't learned the first lesson of humans and love ... It's complicated.

This was one of my most anticipated releases of the year, because I've enjoyed Mason Deaver's previous books, and I'm always SO here for a T4T (non-binary x trans guy, in this case) romance. Unfortunately, it was mostly just okay. I wanted to love this so badly, but the book just didn't work for me f......more

Rep: gay enby/agender MC, vietnamese trans LI, queer vietnamese and Black SCs Awww I absolutely loved the idea of this! A Cupid, made to make humans fall in love, falling in love with a human boy. But Cupids are not made to love humans and if you kiss one, there are serious consequences. I’ve never rea......more

Goodreads review by Eloise on January 10, 2024

2.5 / 5 Okay, Cupid is one of those books that isn't particularly bad, it just lacks the depth to be really good. There's a supernatural element that needed so much more explanation, much more information and lore for it to truly be interesting and for the MC's struggles to be touching... Also, it's a......more
