You Have a Match Book Description
Fans of Emma Lord’s witty storytelling will love You Have a Match, a fresh YA novel that blends family secrets, friendship, and first‑love sparks. Abby, an avid photographer and fearless tree‑climber, signs up for a DNA test hoping to give her crush Leo a tiny nudge toward romance. The test uncovers a shocking secret: a younger sister named Savannah “Savvy” Tully, a shimmery‑haired Instagram star who lives a world apart.
Meanwhile, Abby’s best friend Connie and the awkward aftermath of a big embarrassing incident with Leo keep her heart in limbo. When the DNA results arrive, Abby must confront the fact that Savvy is only a year and a half older and was given up for adoption. The logical next step? Meet at a summer camp where the siblings can untangle their families’ tangled past.
At camp, the drama intensifies. Savvy follows rules like a textbook and comes across as a total narc, while Leo works as the camp’s co‑chef, making Abby’s feelings impossible to hide. Additionally, Abby’s parents guard a hidden truth that could shatter everything she thought she knew. However, the story shows that showing up, leaning in, and embracing awkward pieces can lead to the most rewarding moments.
