 I think I have to agree with a lot of other reviewers. This has too many similarities to the author's first novel, The Love Hypothesis. I appreciate her writing about women in STEM, but unfortunately, the main character in this book doesn't seem like a strong, independent woman anywhere but the lab. There were still enough plot differences to make for a fun read, though comparatively speaking, the differences in characters and their backstories, overall plot, and elements of romance and mystery seemed underdeveloped and made this less interesting
