My Mechanical Romance by Alexene Farol Follmuth
4.0

I wanted to read My Mechanical Romance for two reasons, I loved Atlas Six and I’ve really been into STEM romances recently. The author Alexene Farol Follmuth wrote Atlas Six under the pen name Olivie Blake and these two books are as different as her two names! Both the genre and style are very different from each other. I was personally drawn to Atlas Six more but I would recommend My Mechanical Romance to all of my students. The messaging in this story is exactly what kids need to be reading. Be nerdy, be smart, and do what you love! Teenagers get so wrapped up in being cool, when what’s really cool is being yourself and going after what you find interesting. In addition to a really important message, this is a well done book. Rivals to lovers, competition, and representation wrapped up in moving and adorable plot!

Thank you #Netgalley for the ARC in exchange for an honest review.
