Why read it?

1 author picked Courtesy of Cupid as one of their favorite books. Why do they recommend it?

It isn’t easy to find middle-grade rom-coms, but this book checks all the boxes!

I love the concept–an intensely driven eighth grader who scorns the idea of romance and finds out she’s a Cupid–and Nashae Jones delivers with a laugh-out-loud enemies-to-crushes tale. A bit of magic and plenty of hilarious shenanigans make this one a winner.

From Laurie's list on middle grade novels with romance.
