THE LOVE HYPOTHESIS: BOOK REVIEW

 "I wish you could see yourself the way I see you."

Book title: The Love Hypothesis

Author: Ali Hazelwood

Genre: Fiction, Contemporary Romance

Overall rating: 4.5/5

As a third-year Ph.D. candidate, Olive Smith doesn't believe in lasting romantic relationships - but her best friend does, and that's exactly what got her into this situation.

Where do I begin? Get Ali Hazelwood a damn prize because she created two characters who felt so real and who I cared for so quickly. To say I was invested is an understatement.

I found Olive to be loveable, sweet, and a woman of integrity. And Dr. Adam Carlsen ... a true king. Grumpy with quiet confidence yet oh so kind to out heroine, charmed by her and unwittingly charming toward her, it's all very much a YES for me.

Ali Hazelwood gave these two the time and attention deserved and gave the reader a really natural-feeling contemporary rom-com, while touching on relevant issues in the STEM community.

However, it was written in the third person and I just didn't like it. I actually had to force myself to read just because I could not get used to the writing style and thus, gave it 4.5 stars.
