Very cute romance but it was a little too much for me with LOTR and D&D references.

the first few chapters were difficult to get through bc i kept yelling @ the fl for how dumb & delusional she was being!!!!!!! but thank god she got some sense knocked into her from her friend & redirected her attention to the man of her dreams c'mon now!! even tho i didn't rlly get the references she was making (e.g., lord of the rings, star wars, etc.), @ least ml did, which secured his spot in her heart. there was lots of tension, which is always fun to read hehe i gave it 3 stars tho bc of the beginning of the book & also bc i went in thinking there would be some spice & i quickly realized that wasn't happening :( but it was still a fun read tho! it was nice to have the fl be super smart & know what she wanted to do (i need to take some notes from her omg). i also learned about neurocosmetics, which was cool. all in all, a good read! i recommended the book to my friend to read as well, esp since it took me <5 hrs to read in one sitting bc it was pretty good & had me sitting on the edge of my living room couch :)

It's a cute story, but the main character is immature and has a bit too much bumbling Mary Sue going on.

This was not my cup of tea at all, but it was so easy to read I flew through it. The story line was very cliche, relationship of convenience, and it was telegraphed all the way through. The many MANY 'nerd' references of Lord of the Rings and Star Wars started out sweet but ended up very cringe and just unrealistic. I bumped it up a .5 because the tension and slow build wasn't bad.

This was a really fun, cute book. I found it predictable, but after not reading for a while I didn’t mind that.

las dos estrellas son única y exclusivamente por la química entre ellos tbh!! porque la historia está estructurada muy mal. es un libro de romance y se que no le puedo pedir tanto porque el género bla bla pero no debería ser así!!!

el romance puede ser más ambicioso que esto. la justificación para que ellos empiecen a salir es demasiado vaga. seguro me equivoco, la gente que lee este tipo de libros no busca esto, sino un entretenimiento y ya está pero estaría muy piola que le pongan más garra a algunos detalles

el hecho de que al final pasen 6 meses y ellos ya tengan una compañía y el le pida casamiento es otra cosa que me parece un montón. no se si forzada porque meh pero again podría haberle metido más garra que se yo
