Best parts about this book are the constant references to Dr. Marie Curie (who I wrote a paper about in middle school and worshipped) and the validation of being a woman in STEM. From thereon out, you can't really go wrong.

Get u a man as pathetically in love with you as Levi is with Bee. Get u a girl as intelligently stupid about that love as Bee is with Levi. Get you some cats to keep you both company.

Cute :) It was nice to read enemies to lovers that was genuinely executed well for a change. I enjoyed the feminist themes in this book as well, a lot. Very similar to the love hypothesis, but so much better. If you liked that book then you'll love this one.

Very unrealistic but very entertaining! Definitely Ali Hazelwood’s best work yet, the writing was a glimpse of what goes on in her head and I loved it! What sets her apart from other authors is the amount of personal references in her books. They may only apply to niche audiences but I love them, it makes the main character much more down to earth. The smut was pretty good, about on-par with The Love Hypothesis. I loved the plot! Though a bit rushed at the end, I was on the edge of my seat! Of course we all knew who was behind Schmac, I loved how it was played out. The main characters were also even more likable, and I fell in love with the side characters, in TLH I disliked most of them. Overall, I loved seeing how Hazelwood’s writing has improved since her debut novel, and hope this gets as much publicity as the first!
