so this was actually hands down the BEST BOOK IVE EVER READ IN MY ENTIRE LIFE. i was sold on it the second i found out it was a fake dating trope and i am being so honest when i say i don’t think i’ve ever read a book THIS FREAKING GOOD. first of all the writing style of this book was so beautiful and it had me hooked within the first like 5 pages of the book. second of all the characters. the goddamn characters. i honestly fell in love with both adam AND olive because they were both so perfect im actually so sad they don’t exist in real life. the story progression was also done at the absolute perfect pace and i could not put this book down, like at all. i fell asleep last 1:30 am on two nights because i was just hooked, speechless, and immersed. once you’re three quarters into the book i promise you it will be impossible to put it down because you just want to find out what happens next. i loved that they didn’t drag on any issues and make me wait for problems to be resolved (i’m impatient) and i just love the overall story of this book. it’s also a plus that these characters are smart as hell since they’re both scientists so the playful banter and witty remarks/humor is just on another level. if i could choose one book to make my life i would choose this one in a heart beat honestly. read this book right now. like drop what you’re doing and read this. now.

This book was adorable, perfect for getting out of a reading slump. It was pretty predictable, but I didn't exactly read a romance for the sophisticated plot. I loved the characters and also the science/academia setting of it all. I couldn't stop smiling while I listened to this audiobook.

No sé ni por dónde empezar.
No entiendo como es que este libro tiene un ranting de 4'3 estrellas. Es un 2'5 para mi, a lo sumo.

Desde el principio, la protagonista se la pasa recordándonos lo grande y enorme que el tipo es. Lo dice tanto que llega a ser muy, pero que muy cansino.

Luego, Olive no puede ser más tonta. No es por nada, pero después de una noche entera de sexo con Adam sigue pensando que él está enamorado de otra persona. La chica no para de mentir todo el rato y no pasa por su cabeza en ningún momento ser sincera.
Si tan solo hubiese dicho UNA verdad, solo una, el libro hubiese sido mucho más corto.

Iba a pasar por alto la escena del sexo, pero es que es destacable. Han sido DOS CAPÍTULOS de puro sexo súper awkward. De verdad que no he leído peor cosa en mi vida. Ya sabemos que Adam tiene todo grande, no hace falta que digas que su pene no te cabe de lo grande que es.

Hay cliché de pareja falsa, cliché de compartir habitación, cliché de chica sin experiencia en la cama, como inocente, cliché de chica abusada que necesita ser rescatada por el hombre. Cliché de chica débil y chico protector.

Una tremenda mierda.

La autora ha dejado bien claro desde el principio que Adam se había fijado en Olive desde su primer encuentro, que tenía algún tipo de cuelgue por ella habiendo sólo hablado una vez y ya en tres años, cosa que veo muy clinge. El tipo es una especie de acosador.

Gran parte del libro, por no decir todo, ha sido muy obvio para mí, al punto de que le he dicho a mi BFF todo lo que creía que iba a pasar y, sorpresa, lo he adivinado todo.

Lo he encontrado misogeno y no le doy menos puntuación porque han habido escenas de Adams que me han gustado y por Malcom.
