Not a helpful informed picture of type one diabetes without health insurance. As a type one diabetic I appreciate that there have been more efforts at representation but to show an uninsured diabetic with access to things like a CGM and an insulin pump is dangerous and irresponsible.

All I have to say is that I absolutely love Ali Hazelwood!! I have yet to read something of hers I haven’t liked. Maybe that makes me weird, or normal, or something in between. But I really thoroughly enjoyed this read!!

This was delightfully cute and swoon worthy. It was slow burn, but it was done so well, and I feel like it made me love the couple more! As always, Ali Hazelwood is a romance mastermind.

10/10. This book was great. I devoured it and also stayed up late into the night reading it. It made me laugh, cry, and horny. My only small slight against the book is that it includes a lot of physics jargon - but not enough that the characters, plot, and romance are not entirely enjoyable. Also, as someone who hates physics (sorry physics lovers), I didn't mind the physics talk as much since the romance and writing was so good. I still love The Love Hypothesis better (no surprise) and it was so fun to have Olive and Adam cameo! Overall, I highly recommend it.
