Just Right by A.M. Heath is a novella that offers a delightful blend of romance, humor, and faith. It's a reminder that while life's circumstances may be messy and unpredictable, trusting in God's plan will lead us to what is truly just right. This novella is perfect for readers who enjoy a quick, uplifting read that reinforces the beauty of God's timing and the joy of discovering the perfect fit in both love and life.


From the moment Georgia Quinn discovers her timid roommate's two brothers secretly staying in her decaying house, the story unfolds with the charming chaos reminiscent of Goldilocks encountering the three bears. Each character in Just Right brings a unique flavor to the tale, much like Goldilocks tasting the different bowls of porridge. Georgia's journey in finding what—or rather, who—is just right for her is both entertaining and heartwarming.


Heath's writing style is engaging, and the pacing is perfect for a novella meant to be devoured in one sitting. The interactions between Georgia, her ex-boyfriend Rex, and her new crush Matthew are infused with tension, humor, and sincerity. It's a delicate balance that Heath manages to maintain throughout the story, ensuring that nothing feels too rushed or too slow—everything is just right.


One of the standout aspects of Just Right is the seamless integration of Christian messages. They are woven into the narrative naturally, never feeling forced or out of place. This novella is a cute romance while also being a cherished story that reflects the Christian journey of finding trust in God and understanding His timing. As it is written in Ecclesiastes 3:11, "He has made everything beautiful in its time." This verse beautifully encapsulates Georgia's realization that finding the right person, like finding the right porridge, requires patience and faith in God's perfect plan.


Here are three quotes from the book that resonated with me: (1) “The Bible has a lot to say about what the Lord wants from us. To be holy as He is holy. To live righteously. To love Him with all our hearts, soul, mind, and strength”; (2) “Why live under the burden of someone else’s dreams for us when the Lord keeps us more than busy with His ideals for us?; and (3) “If you let Him, He’ll use every bit of you, even as He’s cleaning you up.”


Reading Just Right by A.M. Heath was like stepping into a contemporary fairytale where Goldilocks isn't just searching for the perfect porridge but for the perfect relationship dynamic. In this delightful novella, Heath skillfully blends a light-hearted romance with faith-filled themes, creating a story that is, quite simply, just right.
