"The Soulmate Equation" explores some heartwarming themes, particularly Jess’s worries about being a good mother to Juno and her close relationship with her grandparents. I found these aspects of the story well-drawn, especially the realistic depiction of Jess’s inner struggles balancing parenting and finding love. However, beyond this, I struggled to connect with the story. The characters, while having potential, felt underdeveloped. The romance felt predictable and lacked the emotional pull I was hoping for. Maybe romance books aren’t for me, or perhaps I need more layered characters to really invest in a story?
