Love on the Brain
by Ali Hazelwood
Okay, maybe I am truly a millennial at my core, but as a 14 year old gen z girl, I LOVED bee.
I’ve been wanting to read this book ever since I first saw it at the library (yes I can’t afford books and what about it) but the one thing that stopped was her name. YES. I saw that her name was Bee Königswasser and almost gagged. IM SORRY. I feel like the name Königswasser is a perfectly normal last name. And the name bee is a… name. But together? Everytime her full name was written I wanted to puke and I now realise that that’s a me problem. Anyway 2 days ago I went through puberty (aka grew balls) and picked up the book. I felt shame while checking out but since I’m a man now I brought it home with me. Ok onto the actual review
The romance was ok I guess
Levi was ok I guess
I love the concept of “I was always in love with you” in certain situations. This was one of them. I think I didn’t hate the fact that they weren’t actual enemies because i wasn’t expecting them to be. I mean cmon it’s Ali hazelwood we’re talking about
Off topic but when I finished my first Ali Hazelwood book I decided to search her up and she looked exactly how I thought she would if you know what I mean
Anyways. It was cute and nicely executed but what really made this book great was the fmc.
the fainting? LOVE. the tattoos? LOVE. the coloured hair? LOVE. the piercings? LOVE. the european-ness? LOVE (because I am biased). the secret online identity? LOVE. the overall way she functions? LOVE.
now before you say anything I am aware that all of ali hazelwoods fmc are like smart but so stupid at the same time. and yes there may have been times when I was screaming through the book at her to make better decisions or for them to just talk. but her good qualities balance her bad qualities out. BUUUUT I did love how bee actually was smart instead of her whole personality being that she’s a broke student (yes olive I’m looking at you.
also but the book could’ve been a few pages shorter if they just communicated….!
I also loved rocío
and why is it that in every single ali book she overuses the word broody and/or huge/large/big/tall
ok bye this was my not at all good and fully biased review (if u can even call it that) of love on the brain.
I feel like ali hazelwood rn with my overuse of parentheses
