🌟 out of 🌟🌟🌟🌟🌟

Synopsis:

Can you ever find true love online? Sophia Jones is an expert in all things online dating: the best sites, how to write a decent bio, which questions to ask and the right type of photos to use. The only thing she’s not so great at? Picking the guys…
After sitting through yet another dreadful date with a man who isn’t quite what she expected, Sophia is just about ready to give up on the whole dating scene. But her flatmate, Kate, persuades her to give it one more chance, only this time she must create a profile describing her ‘perfect’ man.
Yes, he must look like Robert Pattinson and needs to own a multi-million pound business, but there are a couple of other deal breakers, too! So, when a guy comes along who ticks every box, surely there’s got to be a catch?

I thought that the message behind this story was great! It shouldn't matter what a person looks like or what they can give you when you are trying to find a lasting relationship. Sometimes you can write someone off because of these qualities not being met or maybe they didn't give a great first impression because they are nervous. I think that sometimes it is important to take a second look because that person could possibly be a great match for you. 
Anyway...I had a hard time getting through this book regardless of the message because of one main reason. I could not connect with Sophia nor did I want to. She was so shallow! She only seemed to care about a person's bank account and their appearance. When she begins talking about her perfect man during the beginning of the book, I wanted to scream. Frankly, I think that she and another one of the characters in the book deserve each other because neither of them truly care about what matters within a relationship which is love. If she would gave been more likable, I think that the book would have been better. The saving grace of this book is Chris! I loved how down to earth and kind he was. I also happen to have a thing for nerdy guys so I found it endearing that he played with figures that he painted himself. I will say that this book gets points for originality because there were some dating preferences and pitfalls that I had never heard of before that took place in this book.
