2.25 I feel like this book had two stories and I struggle to follow. Do people really get drunk and married in Vegas and then don't get an annulment? For drunk Vegas elopement I suggest reading Not That Kind of Guy by Andie J. Christopher . This book did not feel as STEMinist as I would like either. For a STEMinist novel please look up Ali Hazelwood books.

I really liked the discussions of mental health and burnout that were centered in this book. I also really enjoyed the found families and ensemble of characters. I think wasn’t super invested in the romance because it developed over such a short amount of time, but that is just my personal preference.

this one is for all the overworked phd student girlies!

This book is amazing and is for all the 20something year olds that feel lost in life and don’t really know what path to take. I enjoyed the diversity in the characters as well, and that I not only resonated with Grace’s story, but being a being a black queer person as well(and the struggles that come with that).

Easily one of the most beautifully written and impossibly romantic books I've read in quite some time (maybe ever)! Absolutely gorgeous.
