I don't know how I slept on this book for so long, but DAAAAANG. Statistics, science, DNA, I diiiiiiiig. I liked seeing the tech start-up culture, and seeing some insight into how their algorithm worked. To be fair, it did feel a little like they went "ehhhh neural network!" with it, but some of the math checks out! I did love this "dating of convenience" trope, kind of a fun take on the traditional trope without all the commitment. And oooooooomg the epilogue, the art science fair, THE BROTHELS.

I loved Jess, Juno, and Fizzy, and even River grew on me with time. More than just a romance, we get to examine the architecture of a family and everything that goes along with that. I enjoyed the narration and can't wait to dive into The True Love Experiment.
