I just couldn’t get past the premise of this book and the few scenes that absolutely were not okay conduct between a professor/student.
This book explores themes of sexual abuse, academic pressure, women in STEM, and the demisexual experience in a good way, but there were just parts of the story that felt gross and I couldn’t get past.
Definitely a romance, definitely fanfic-ish.

This book had me kicking my feet and giggling every three pages. I could not put it down. Thank you to Ali Hazelwood for putting in overtime at the slay factory so I could make this book my entire personality for the past 26 hours.

I have a love and hate relationship with this book. It started fun, but it got boring mid book.
I couldn’t love it.
Like why did Adam like Olive? What made him like her for two consecutive years, when he never even spoke to her once, other than that awkward talk in the bathroom and after the kiss? It makes him look like a stalker.
How many time is Olive going to complain or describe how large and antagonistic Adam was. It became repetitive. We get it he is tall and perfect, but isn’t the nicest person in the world, no need to repeat it so much.
I don’t want to say much about it, as to not spoil anyone the story, but at some point it was pretty obvious how he felt for her. Like there is no way Olive was that dense.
Lastly, why are her friends so awful? Specifically Anh. She was ridiculously annoying, and for someone who was constantly described as Olive best friend, and the person that understood her the most, Anh failed to realize when Olive was uncomfortable, sad, and in absolute distress. In other words, when Olive needed her the most she was oblivious to it. Her friends didn’t add much to the story. They were there for decoration.
Also, wtf is wrong with having freckles?
This book was a mess, and it makes me sad because i kind of liked how it started, until she gave the lamest excuse for having kiss Adam, it went downhill from there.

I'm usually not one for romance, but I actually really liked it! I found the writing of the bonus chapter to be a bit cringy but otherwise I really enjoyed it!
