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!

-slow burn
-enemies to lovers
-big guy, tiny girl
-women in STEM
-pithy details to make things relevant to the present day zeitgeist
...AND I CAN'T STOP READING IT. I think I love her books actually, despite how much they annoy me. Much like how her female leads feel about their love interests. The spice is 🔥🔥🔥.
