feliscatus 's review for:

The Love Hypothesis by Ali Hazelwood
3.0
funny lighthearted medium-paced
Plot or Character Driven: Plot
Strong character development: Complicated
Loveable characters: Yes
Diverse cast of characters: No
Flaws of characters a main focus: Complicated

This book was exactly what it was trying to be, a light and cute romcom. 
The writing style was not my favorite, but the dialogues were nice when not a bit cringy. The book was undeniably at its best when Olive and Adam were interacting, specially as the books goes on. 
I heavily disliked the lack of chemistry between Olive and Ahn,  Malcolm would've made a much better best friend. 
I also didn't like that Olive's asexuality was just implied. It would have been really great to have an explicitly ace character in a book this famous on social media.
I won't revisit, but it's a nice book if you're into the genre.
