Love, Theoretically is another masterpiece by Ali Hazelwood. Elsie is looking for a new job and has to go through a few interview stages. However, on her interview committee is Jack, a nemesis of hers that tried to ruin her mentor's career. There are scholarly sabotages happening and Jack seems nicer than Elsie thought.
 
I am currently on a fantastic reading run. Ali Hazelwood is a mastermind. I enjoyed reading about academics and women in STEM. It's interesting that I learn something new with her books. Something that I did not fully enjoy, and I didn't like in The Love Hypothesis either, is that the female protagonists are quite insecure about sexual activities. But other than that, I loved this book.
 
The hatred between Elsie and Jack was a bit irrational towards the end. But I fully get why Elsie was so angry at Jack. I probably would have felt the same way (even though I know that being resentful is not the best thing to do). Their love story was rather slow-burn, but sexy and hot! I was so excited for them.
 
I really do love Ali Hazelwood's books. I can't wait to read more and can highly recommend them!
