In Perfect on Paper: a bisexual girl who gives anonymous love advice to her classmates is hired by the hot guy to help him get his ex back. Her advice, spot on. Her love life, way off. Darcy Phillips: • Can give you the solution to any of your relationship woes―for a fee. • Uses her power for good. Most of the time. • Really cannot stand Alexander Brougham. • Has maybe not the best judgement when it comes to her best friend, Brooke…who is in love with someone else. • Does not appreciate being blackmailed. However, when Brougham catches her in the act of collecting letters from locker 89―out of which she’s been running her questionably legal, anonymous relationship advice service―that’s exactly what happens. In exchange for keeping her secret, Darcy begrudgingly agrees to become his personal dating coach―at a generous hourly rate, at least. The goal? To help him win his ex-girlfriend back. Darcy has a good reason to keep her identity secret. If word gets out that she’s behind the locker, some things she's not proud of will come to light, and there’s a good chance Brooke will never speak to her again. Okay, so all she has to do is help an entitled, bratty, (annoyingly hot) guy win over a girl who’s already fallen for him once? What could go wrong?

The vibes are good in this book. It gave Sex Education and Never Have I Ever mixed together. Wonderfully sweet and the characters were easily lovable.
Glad this book was available at my library. Picked it up by chance and loved every second of reading it!
0Before you read this book, get cozy, make sure you have snacks nearby, and settle in for the evening because this is a totally binge-worthy book. (Seriously, though. Snacks.)
It’s been a hot minute since I’ve read a physical book (between online school textbooks, eARCs, and digital library books, I’ve been too busy) but I’m so glad I got to get my hands on a copy of this! I received Perfect on Paper as an eARC from St. Martin’s back in August, but won a physical ARC in a giveaway. From the gripping first line, I was hooked.
Darcy is such a wonderful main character! It was truly refreshing to have a character that not only really sounds like a real high schooler, but actually messes up! Makes mistakes! Like all teenagers do! She’s witty, driven, and ambitious and I kinda wish she was real so I could be friends with her?! I haven’t read Sophie Gonzales’s other book, Only Mostly Devastated, but the narration of this book was incredible! It was a first-person POV, and from Darcy’s perspective and I was cracking up through parts of the book from her witty inner monologue.
Perfect on Paper was such a delight to read and if you love secret pining, enemies-to-lovers (ish) arcs, and honestly just good writing, you’ll enjoy this book!
