Matchmaking for Beginners is a fun, quirky, and heartfelt read that balances humor, romance, and self-discovery. The story is carried by its wonderfully relatable characters—especially Marnie MacGraw, a sweet Southern girl with a touch of snark, and her eccentric, lovable great-aunt Blix Holiday, who injects life and magic into every scene she’s in.
Marnie dreams of an ordinary life with a husband and children—but when her engagement falls apart after just two weeks, she unexpectedly inherits Blix’s Brooklyn brownstone. To claim it, she must live there for three months, surrounded by Blix’s colorful neighbors and “projects,” discovering along the way that she may share Blix’s gift for matchmaking.
The story moves at a lively pace, with laugh-out-loud moments, heartfelt realizations, and a few decisions by Marnie that will make you want to shout, “What are you doing?” While some parts felt like filler, the plot and character development are strong, and the ending leaves you feeling happy and satisfied.
If you’re looking for a novel with quirky, relatable characters, a touch of magic, and a story about finding happiness in unexpected places, this one is a delightful choice.
