Messing with Matilda

Matilda is a very unique and quirky character and I enjoyed being inside her head. It was fun seeing the extremely organized person having to face unexpected and unplanned messes and learning to eat with them. Amy and Evie are well written characters and I enjoyed their friendship dynamic with Tilly. Even though Silas has this convoluted plan to win back his ex, he is still charming and cool. I definitely understood the development of a friendship between Tilly and Silas but I just couldn't get invested in their romance. I really didn't see the chemistry.
But I did finish this book in a single sitting and it was fun. It's written in a very entertaining way that keeps you hooked till the end even if you can guess what's coming.

Opposites might attract, but Matilda and Silas seem to have missed that memo, at least at first. They may be an unlikely pair, but a very likeable one. :)

I enjoyed the heck out of the shenanigans leading up to The Wedding[TM], and I loved the assorted friends, family and (fr)enemies, who made this fun story even better.

I loved this return to Messina (including a cameo by Chef Milo), and am looking forward to reading more books set in this world.
