Also, also, women in STEM. What a novel concept (not really, but its nice to see it in the romance genre, or ANY genre, but I digress).

this is a brilliant book! i love the storyline and all the characters! i would highly recommend for 18 year olds and above. just one thing, one thing that kinda made the book slightly less enjoyable is that its in third person. it would have been a perfect 5/5 if it was in first person. but i still surprisingly really enjoyed it nonetheless. i don't even have any interest in science, but this is still managed to be fantastic for me, from the start and all the way to the ending!
just a warning though, they have some age gap. the female main character is 26 and her male love interest is 34. not that much tbh but i know that there are people that wouldn't be okay with this so i'm typing this here anyway.

Sort of spoilery review here:

I really just wanted to take a moment to talk about diverse this cast is!! The main character is demisexual (me 2 girl), her best friend is Vietnamese, her other best friend is presumed to be bisexual (also me 2), her advisor is presumably Turkish. like the cast is just so diverse which is so nice to see. All too often do books just feature a bunch of generic white people so it was nice to see a good mix of everyone in this cast!My opinion on how spicy this book is:

There's only one part of the book that features smut, however it is pretty graphic. I have put as a warning that the smut is graphic because it is, but it doesn't last for very long. I honestly think there was less smut in this book than in any of the Emily Henry books I've read. That being said, use your noggin and do what's best for you!!Graphic: Sexual content, Cursing, and Cancer
