3.5 stars. Some things were awesome (women in stem, cats, a tolerable male lead but a bit pushy) and some thins were bad like Bee. Actually it’s after reading the epilogue I understood that… I don’t like her: she’s suppose to be a perfect for me but everything seemed fake (fake cute, a feminist when she wants) I don’t know, I had a bad feeling about her.
So yeah 3.5 stars and I hope the next book will change a little (a not so bad guy with dark hair and a short woman who lives in her world).

AMAZING!!

I loved this book, the characters and friendships. When I read book they always feel like am watching a movie. However, with Love on the brain, it felt like Bee was narrating everything alone the way.
10/10 would recommend

Ali Hazelwood is the master of nerd love. Plot lines are pretty unrealistic but can't help but root for the adorable couple.

The lesser of Hazelwood's books. I wish it was better but the misunderstandings carry on for far, far,far too long, galaxies away too far. There are points where the MC Bee tries to be a super intersectional feminist but it comes off as all talk or poorly timed. The action and surprise bad guy are poorly plotted and come out of no where to be stopped as quickly as we learnt about them killing all suspense. The least fun of Hazelwood's books but the deepest, longest loves from a main character that is kind of concerning rather than uber romantic. Everyone in this hook is either 1 incredibly lonely or 2 a very angry/terrible person...hope the Author is doing okay her other books seem so sweet. I wish this had been more charming like the other Ali Hazelwood books I have read.

I DON’T CARE about Marie Curie. Also, galaxy leggings, really?
Lastly, Levi deserves better.

Me ha gustado mucho. Levi odiamos y luego adoramos y Bee adoramos y luego odiamos que estuviera tan ciega a las cosas. 
No sé si lo de las cuentas de twitter se hizo para que la gente se fuera dando cuenta que era el otro o no pero vamos que era algo que se veía desde la primera charla que iba a ser él así que bueno fue un poco más para añadir que obviamente le gustaba Bee desde que la conoció. 

Quitando que tiene cosas muy obvias y tramas muy básicas como todo libro de romance y que sigue una línea similar a sus otros libros eso no quita que yo estuviera chillando con lo bonitos que son. Y frustada también por supuesto. Y ya que sean del mundo CTIM es que de verdad que me apasiona porque es tipo si gracias por darme esto en un entorno que conozco😂. 

Y el final... me parece tan sútil y tan bonito que es que no puedo (sin el prólogo claro).

No tiene un 5 porque igual que en La hipótesis del amor tiene ciertas cosas un poco cuestionables como por ejemplo este uno contándole sobre la muerte de su amigo y lo mucho que le dolió y lo que implicó e implica en su vida y que literalmente el siguiente párrafo sea él con muchísimas ganas de follar y no porque haya habido un salto en el tiempo sino así al segundo y es tipo a ver bueno esto como que no está muy bien.
Que me voy a leer todos los demás aunque vayan a ser casi igual? Pues claro que sí porque son adictivos igualmente.
