Trivia

 * This is the first book where you can choose the gender and personality of a love interest.
 * It is the first book under the Science Fiction (Sci-Fi) genre, which is one of the new genres introduced in Choices.
 * This is the second book where you can choose the look of a love interest, the first being The Royal Romance, Book 1.
 * There are a total of 16 personalities that you can be matched with.
 * The personalities are made of four general traits: Outgoing or Mysterious, Rebellious or Sweet, Humorous or Sincere, and Impulsive or Logical.
 * This is the fourth story where Your Character has a last name, following The Royal Romance, High School Story, and Home for the Holidays.
 * However, like Home for the Holidays and later Across the Void, It Lives Beneath, and Mother of the Year, the last name cannot be changed. In this case, it is "Park".
 * In Chapter 2, Damien makes a reference to the 2004 classic Mean Girls when he says, "How was your perfect evening with your perfect guy? Was everything perfection?".
 * This is paying homage to Janice Ian saying to Cady Heron "Did you have an awesome time? Did you drink awesome shooters and listen to awesome music, and then just sit around and soak up each other's awesomeness?"
 * In the same conversation, after you have received the bouquet from Eros, Damien ironically calls the story of you and your match "the Hallmark story for the ages".
 * In Chapter 3, the cover of The Crown & The Flame, Book 3 can be seen as a movie poster on the right side of the background, as well as an image of Ryan Summers on the left side.
 * 'A Battle of Crowns' was first mentioned by Steve in Chapter 4, since they mentioned that they both recently started it.
 * In Chapter 7, Nadia further talks about a beheading of a beloved character in season 2 of this show. It is hinted at possibly being a parody of the HBO TV show Game of Thrones, some sort of spin-off of The Crown & The Flame (since the original TV series in the Choices Universe has ended).
 * In Chapter 11, you are given the options to remain exclusive with your match, keep your options open (which also allows you to potentially date/romance Sloane and Damien) or break up with your match (and thus pursue the other LIs).
 * In Chapter 13, Sloane confesses her love for Your Character and Damien also tells you when he knew he loved you.
 * In Chapter 15, it is mentioned that recruiting Alana will "alter future storylines", hinting at potential sequel.
 * Also in Chapter 15, you are given the chance to change your MC's appearance one last time before "the finale", thus hinting that Chapter 16 will be the final chapter in the book.
 * With the reveal of Harley, a 2.0 version of Hayden in Chapter 14 and the other twelve copies of Hayden in Chapter 16 at the Eros facility, the writers also seem to be paying homage to the BBC America series Orphan Black (the main difference between the two is that Orphan Black is about human clones while Perfect Match is about androids).
 * Prior to the summary on the app for this book being unveiled, the previous summary read as: An exclusive matchmaking service guarantees that they can find your perfect match. But is true love too good to be true?
 * Chapter 10 shares the same chapter title as It Lives In The Woods, Chapter 13, "Fight or Flight".
 * On January 21, 2019, a new cover for Perfect Match, Book 1 was added in the app.
 * On July 22, 2019, it was discovered that the summary for Chapter 5 changed from "You and your friends survived a car crash, but can you survive meeting the parents?" to "In the hospital, you finally meet Steve's father. But is he hiding something?"
