4.0

was it as good as TLH? no.
did i still have fun? yes!

i had trouble getting into this book, especially since the switch from 3rd to 1st person through me completely off guard. furthermore, bee is kinda whiny. but i LOVED her and levi. 

idc how many times ali hazelwood writes similar STEM romances - i will enjoy every single one. it is her niche and her charm, for sure.

Ali Hazelwood owns my soul. She writes loveable enticing and flawed characters; they pull you in because you can relate to them and you feel like you are going through this all with them. She combines humor, romance and smut for an brilliant read.

this comment may have spoilers in it -I really like this book the twist at the ending gave me really bad anxiety until the situation was solved but then i did start to enjoy it i do think the ending could've been longer and the epilogue could've been better i like for books to be plot and romance but more romance then anything  so if you are like me in that kinda way then you probably won’t enjoy the book all that good you still will like it though just probably not love it the whole book i was waiting for them to get together and then the ending they didn’t really verbally get together bee just showed up to his house and said We in a sentence and that was kinda how they got together then they switched to epilogue and brought it to the 5k race they talked about though the book the ending was rushed and i wished the epilogue would’ve atleast fast fowarded a couple years and showed what they were like and gave some memories they shared over time but that didnt happen it just fast forwarded a couple months but i did enjoy the book i really love Levi and Bee together i jsut wish the author gave a little more memories and time together so i could really really fall inlove with the characters of the book im going to give this book a five star-⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️because i still enjoyed it nonetheless

 loved this book! Took me a while to get into it and for a while I thought The Love Hypothesis was better (and imo they’re completely different) but actually in this one there’s anonymous social media accounts, steminist politics, spice, enemies to lovers, espionage, sabotage, and cats. Everything I love. I do wish the beginning was a bit more exciting and some plot twists weren’t so predictable but it definitely picked up and I’d recommend to romance readers everywhere.
