The first 20% of this book dragged PAINFULLY, to the point where I wondered if this was going to be the one and only Ali Hazelwood book I would DNF because of all of the rambling and uninterrupted misogyny was frankly painful HOWEVER once it picked up (around 21-22%), I was hooked and barely put it down.

Are Levi and Bee essentially Adam and Olive from The Love Hypothesis with different academic specialties? Yes, absolutely 
Did I devour this book in less than a day? Also yes
I don't know what kind of drugs Ali Hazelwood puts in her books but I love them.

I was willing to look past the galaxy leggings but the terrible gun wielding villain turn in the 3rd act was enough to make me want to make me throw my phone across the room.

Ali Hazelwood got me again with another cute and fluffy STEM rom-com and honestly, I'm here for every second of it. Bee and Levi's story was so adorable. She was so convinced that he hated her and was out to ruin her career when in reality he's been pining for her for years and honestly, I was EATING IT UP. Once she finally starts to realize that her perspective on his actions are not what she thinks and starts seeing him for who he truly is, my heart was exploding. Also, the ending? WOAH. Wasn't expecting that at all and I was here for the plot twist.
