This is a pretty great romance, but I kept feeling like something was missing from it in comparison to other romances I enjoyed from this year. I didn't find myself as connected to the characters, and wasn't super invested in the plot until I was 70% of the way into the book. While it wasn't my personal favorite, it was still a fun read and was super cute! I recommend it to fans of The Love Hypothesis!

*spoilers*

I loved this book. I don't know what I was expecting, but it definitely wasn't two socially awkwar STEM nerds trying to figure out how to navigate a relationship.

I will say that the sexual tension was more sexuak than the actual set scenes, which I found absolutely hilarious. 

Overall a great read, especially for gushing romantics.
