Reviews with content warning for Outing - Love, Theoretically

I thought I would love this after seeing reviews, especially because it has diabetes AND aro/ace rep. But SIGH. I liked it enough, but it was nothing mind-blowing (for me).

“‘Remember how it was?’ I ask. ‘Learning them for the first time? The Schrödinger equation. The standard model.’
He nods. His throat bobs…’Knowing that the universe could can be made sense of.’
‘Made of patterns. Rules that can be discovered, predicted.’
‘Find them out, and you’ll know how to make the world into what you want.”

BROOO THIS WAS SO GOODDD - I absolutely loved Love Hypothesis and was excited to read this one cause I’d heard it was even better but I didn’t actually believe I’d love it more but I somehow did?? Literally just binge read this in the middle of the night starting at like 11:30 or midnight and just finished at 5am despite having work in 3 hours lmao - worth it :)

This was my first Ali Hazelwood book and I loved it! It's fun and entertaining, but it also shows the real life soap opera that is academia. Hazelwood captures the stress and struggle very well, it in a way that's not too depressing. I thought the couple were very sweet and I love the enemies to lovers trope. Overall great read.

Closed Door Mods: Chapter 19 (some parts), Chapters 21-22 (some parts)

As someone who’s read Hazelwood’s two prior STEMinist novels, I absolutely love her latest addition Love, Theoretically.

With Love, Theoretically having a much more distinct plot and characters compared to her other works, I found myself able to enjoy the same feelings I had like the first time I read her work. Witty banter under an easy-to-understand STEM context? Check. Strong female lead that you’re able to relate and maybe see yourself being friends with? Check. A swoonworthy romance that will keep you rooting for the couple till the very end? Check and check.

If you want a read that captures the magic of The Love Hypothesis into a brand new story, you should keep an eye out for Love, Theoretically.

Musically, I should hire a tuba to follow me around.

Elsie is so effortlessly hilarious, I love her. Also loved the Olive and Adam's cameo. Don't tell them that possibly I love this book more than I did theirs oops-
