I went into this having not really liked her first book also thinking that I was reading her second book (which I was told to read cause it apparently has two vegan main characters?). ANYWAY I did like this a lot more than The Love Hypothesis.
Some things about Hazelwood's writing are a bit cringe to me, it's like certain phrases used that can take me out of it, but I can mostly overlook them. I did appreciate that this was paced well as far as the romance cause I’ve been reading too many insta love books recently 😑 I also really like the concept of this book being about Elsie finding ways to speak up for herself instead of placating to everyone around her. Definitely want to send this book to my friend who works in science academia. Also whoever narrates this is fantastic I’m gonna look them up!
