A review by tmkreads
Love, Theoretically by Ali Hazelwood

4.0

Elsie is an adjunct physics professors, but that doesn't really pay the bills. At night she goes on fake dates to make ends meet and pay for her insulin. Everything is going well, she has an interview for a dream job at MIT, until she meets the hiring committee and finds out that one of her fake date's brothers, Jack, is on the committee. Jack has always hated Elsie, at least that's what she thinks, but the more time they spend together, the more she begins to question his feelings and her own.

Ali Hazelwood delivers again with a relatable heroine who is stuck trying to people please and more commentary on STEM and academia. The romance at the center of the novel is similar to Hazelwood's other novels, but the main characters, Elsie and Jack, are distinct enough to make this novel stand on its own. Fans of The Love Hypothesis and Love on the Brain will be excited for a new Hazelwood novel.
