I love in a romance when two characters have a magical time together, they’re not telling each other everything, and then they separate for the night hoping they’ll see each other again. But something goes wrong, so they have a hard time finding their way back to each other. The Red String Theory follows artist Rooney and NASA scientist Jack as they find their way back to each other despite a few hurdles.


I really enjoyed their story. It’s a slow burn that’s maybe a bit too slow for me. But I really did like that they communicated about everything when they could. I also like that both of them had time to come into their own before coming together, and they wanted that for each other.
