This book was like reading 5 different AU fan fictions set in the same universe. It was a fairly fun time, but the 5 POVs didn't give me enough time to care about anyone.

I went into this book expecting to love it but I only found it ok. 

Your Perfect Match is a company that has discovered a unique gene that links two soul mates around the world. This book follows a number of these matches, showing a range of the potential experiences that could be born through this sort of discovery.

I enjoyed some storylines more than others. There were implications of being "only gay for you" which felt a bit funky. Overall, I liked the premise but didn't find the reveals particularly shocking.

I loved reading this book, I started of super interested in Nick and Christopher’s stories as they stood out as the most intriguing but each characters story gripped me throughout and made me want to know where all of them were going.
