under one roof is a fast, lighthearted read that is equally hilarious and feels-inducing. although the novella might not have a lot of meat given its length and i wish the ending was longer + less abrupt, the writing flows well and i enjoy the main leads both individually and tgt. like, it gives what it's supposed to, y'know? hazelwood's def my go-to for sth cute, fast and fun.

But why do all guys have to be so huge that they tower over their little love interests?

What I love most about Ali's works is the representation of women in STEM. In a funny way, she conveys the hardships women face in fields that are considered better for men. She points out that women should not be seen as women only - we are intelligent and very much skilled. It's just sad that we still see sexism in the workplace now.

It's a good thing this is a novella.
I don't think a whole novel needs to be written just to tell the story of how Mara and Liam fell in love.
As expected, it was a funny, easy read. Ali knows how to make people smile and cringe at the cheesiness of it all at the same time. A perfect read if you want something that will entertain you.
I just didn't like the way it ended. The spice scene was so out-of-the-blue, so abrupt to start even if I knew it was coming (it was still good smut, though).


Best quote in the book: See, that's the thing I hate the most about adulting: at some point, one has to start doing it.

Same, Mara. Same.
