Book Review: Set on You by Amy Lea

Set on You by Amy Lea is the perfect summer read. If you’re a fan of Ali Hazelwood or Nisha Sharma, you will love this book.

In Set on You, our protagionist Crystal is a fitness influencer on Instagram who is struggling to cope with a breakup. She has very little stamina left for me and finds solace in the gym—her place of power and positivity. That is until Scott, a broody man who constantly steals her equipment, starts a petty war of gym dominance. Things take a turn for the worst when she discovers that he’s her grandmother’s fiance’s grandson. When they’re forced to bond, they realized that the lines between love and hate are blurred.

<3 style="text-align: center">Highlights

  • Set on You emphasizes the importance of self-love.
  • It has Ali Hazelwood’s stamp of approval.
  • This book talks about getting through a rough breakup and trying to love yourself again after.

Lowlights

  • Crystal is a relatively petty character, but Scott was the reason I enjoyed reading this!

Final Thoughts: Set on You is the perfect book to add to your summer TBR pile and will sweep you off your feed.
