I wanted to be a hater but sadly, I did enjoy it.
It was pretty predictable at times, the amount of times it was mentioned Adam was tall, and had broad shoulders and he towered over Olive (33) was overkill tbh, and at some parts I was genuinely thinking "what the fuck" because the things happening or the way Ms Hazelwood described things was very weird, but it kept me hooked and I had a good time regardless.

I love Adam without an argument. I understand why everyone was saying this as a $mut, because daaamn that was a long chapter. As a science student, it was nice to see something subject related because it felt familiar. I like the story, I do. But I kinda don't think it's a 5 star for me because I like it because the subject related to me, and I'm also a student. But if I forget about those stuff, I really don't have anything that I can be happy with. Yes I like Adam, but the story itself didn't felt right for me. I kinda expected more than this.

I had a good time with this. There were some of my fatal flaws that are typical in romance (man is so big, woman is so tiny & horribly cliche ending) but it didn’t completely ruin the story

I just knew I had to read a book by Ali Hazelwood!! This one have been on my tbr for so long and it took my brother gifting it to me on Christmas to finally dive into this story.
I am not disappointed! I've heard some people find it overrated but I think that must be mostly because of the hype it had on booktok.
I found it to be a really lovely and really funny rom-com and I'm definitely buying more books from this author!

It was a good book. I really enjoyed it. I like that it shows how hard is for girls to be in the field filled by men. Love the main relationship between the characters. Love is also the main character. Like the spicy chapter. The only minus is I just wish the first kiss was not a surprise kiss. But the overall amazing story is good to read if you are stuck in reading a book or looking for something light to read.

The book was good, but everything plot wise was very predictable. The smutty part was good, but (i cant make this up) wasnt until 69% into the audiobook. It was a fun listen but i wouldn’t say it was one that made you think. A fluffy fun book.
