4.5 Stars! ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️✨

When I picked up this book I was ready for disappointment, with it being SO hyped up and all. And often with books like that, you just know that they’ll never live up to the hype everyone’s given it.  But The Love Hypothesis was honestly one of the best books I’ve read this year! It was engaging, it was written beautifully, it was so so witty and funny, and it also just had me HOOKED. Like I could not put this book down and I was down right ANNOYED that I had to go to work (because it interfered with me finishing it earlier 😂). 

I loved the characters, the relationships didn’t feel forced, and I genuinely was super surprised at how EVERYTHING was tied up by the end of the book. Often when I’m finishing up a book, I’m always left wondering, “what significance did that sentence, or object, or scene have?” But not with this book, it tied everything together and added a pretty bow on top. 

I loved how self aware it was, and the funny little reference to Star Wars had me laughing out loud where Holden was doing the Imperial March Theme, and the abundance of knowledge about science and women in STEM (even though I’m a high school drop out that knows next to nothing, I found it all super engaging). 

All in all I am IN LOVE with this book, and can’t wait to read more of Ali’s works!!
