sinistrocanto 's review for:

The Love Hypothesis by Ali Hazelwood
4.0

STAYED UP WAY PAST BEDTIME TO READ THIS AND IT WAS SO TOTALLY WORTH IT

Now with an actual review: Look this is a CUTE romance. I knew it going in; I read it back when and found it adorable. Now it's BETTER. I love that it's not only a cute romance, but also the characters and their motivations are fleshed out in a really interesting way - I'm INVESTED in these people! Not a given with fic turned profic, and not a given with tropes-based romance books in general. I love all the frenzied, unglamorous depiction of academia. I love that SHIT GETS REAL but not in a way that takes away the focus from the feel-good romance.

tldr: couldn't put it down. Fave romance of 2021 so far :)
