Three novellas combined into one novel, I loved the connection and friendship theme of the FMC’s throughout the novellas. This collection just lacked the depth and intellectual insight that I’ve now come to expect from Ali. Cute but not spectacular.

I didn't really have any expectations going into this but I do really like the concept of three STEM friends finding partners in their own novellas. That's to say that I didn't necessarily like all three novellas.
Under One Roof- This felt like an Ali classic and I really did enjoy it, was the first chapter unnecessary and feel like a spoiler? Yes, but I still liked Liam and their slow bond over talking to each other and trash reality tv. Even in the bonus chapter they were my fav, especially with Mara's humor.
Stuck With You- I really wanted to like this one but the time jumps made it super difficult to understand and the whole plot depended on freaking miscommunication. Also I liked Sadie, I thought her superstition was cool but she did overreact when she didn't get that stupid client. Erik didn't stand out to me, he was just kinda there and entirely to patient with Sadie after spending one night with her.
Below Zero- Hannah was prob my second fav fmc, I wish we would've gone more into detail about her problem with commitment but whatever its a novella. Did the plot kinda feel like Love, Theoretically with the mentor? Yeah but it wasn't the exact same so I could get past it. The ending though.. Ive read a lot of stuff and the belly button thing still weirded me out. The main problem with this novella is that I had zero interest in it and didn't feel the need to pick it up.
Overall liked this book of novellas but it def doesn't compare to any of her books in my opinion.
