This is just my opinion, and I hesitate to be so negative because I know this is an author's hard work here... but I really, really didn't like this book. Didn't finish it. Didn't get past the first quarter of the book. I found myself staring at the words going "...what the hell is this?" Maybe it's because I don't read much contemporary fiction, but this had a speculative element so I expected it to be on a par with other books of a similar genre. Not at all.I got this book for free as a prize in a contest, so thankfully I didn't actually spend my money on it, but if I had, I would've been seriously disappointed. It's such a cute idea, but terrible execution. Maybe I just dislike the style of book where the narrator sounds like an airheaded bimbo--not all teenaged girls go "Like, omg, THIS guy is soooOOOoooOOOoo cute omfgfff hahalol." And those who do certainly aren't characters I want to read about.For me, this is the marshmallow peep of books. I'm sure there's someone out there who likes it, but it's fluffy and unsatisfying and leaves me regretting I ever decided to try it. WARNINGS: So cute and I loved it.Stupid Cupid is a fantastic, fast read. This book was a very enjoyable, easy to read, and interesting enough to keep me turning the pages. Sometimes, I would even laugh out loud or giggle at whatever was happening (the situation between her parents, a prime example!). It was definitely a good way to start the series and I most certainly can’t wait to read more.Felicity is the classic good friend, who of course causes a bit of trouble for her friend only while trying to help her out. She’s too shy to say more than a few words to her crush, Derek and being a cupid means she can’t make him fall for her. I loved Stapleton’s simplicity and her ability to just allow you to flow through the story. I finished this book in one sitting, for goodness sake’s! Addict’s Last Words: If you are looking for a light, fun read, Stupid Cupid is your book.To Buy or To Borrow: I know I will read more of this series and whenever I like a series, I have to have all of them so this is a buy for me! Plus, it’s just cute!
