I loved this book! I’ve recommended it to friends, and I loved The Love Hypothesis as well. My only issues with this book was the timing of the plot twist, I wish we got more of the conclusion than we did. I feel like I have a lot of questions about the plot twist that weren’t answered in the last few chapters which irks me a bit as a reader. This book DID grab my attention, I did not want to put it down!! Though, when I hit the plot twist I was kind of left sitting there like  “really?… that’s it?” maybe I didn’t read it as deeply as the author anticipated, but it just felt a little lackluster to me.

1.5 maybe 1.75 stars. If I hear one more time how a female mc is small / tiny and the male love interest is huge / strong & omg he thinks I’m tight because his length is so big ! Just … no. I did like that more actual science was in this book but it felt like a lazy, caricature extended version of TLH. Both mc were so immature - are we sure they were almost in their 30’s? I liked Rocio & Kaylee as characters more.
