I heard so many good things about this book and now I get the hype. This book is funny, romantic, sexy and so much more. I loved to read about women in STEM. This was really empowering, even though I would personally never pursue a career in STEM. I had to google several words used in this book... But that made it so authentic. I loved it! The short hypotheses at the beginning of each chapter were so intriguing. I always wanted to know what the hypothesis had to do with the chapter. Quite a clever move.
The chemistry between Olive and Adam was so good (and hot!). I loved that Olive just called out his mean demeanour. Even though Adam can be really mean to his students, he was so supportive of Olive. I loved Olive's friend Malcolm. I hope so much that he will get his happy ending. He kind of would deserve an own book.
I am still a little surprised that I love this book so much. Usually, I am a little scared if I find a book promoted on bookstagram as I have bought several that were promoted that were really really not good. But here, the hype is totally deserved. I can't wait to read Ali Hazelwood's other books!

I enjoyed the STEM representation. Although I’m not in STEM, it was the path I was going to choose so to live vicariously through these characters were fun.
I loved the side characters and their dynamics. It all felt very authentic and comfortable.
Olive and Adam were a cute duo. I love “grumpy” and “misunderstood” men in books and Adam delivered.
I enjoyed the slow burn of it all. It made their final moments to getter that much better. And I can’t wait to read more from Ali Hazelwood.
