A Princess in Theory by Alyssa Cole

2.0

I'm really glad I read the second book first. I liked it and never would have read it if I read this book first. 

My least favorite trope: miscommunication.  Also, the FMC is supposed to be a brilliant scientist but she repeatedly makes dumb choices and is not at all curious. 

Him: I have something I must tell you. 
Her: No. I don't want to know.

Her: Why didn't you tell me? It must be that you're a liar I can't trust because only terrible people make mistakes and I'm not culpable for the many times I made assumptions and refused to listen to you. I'm perfect in all ways except that no one loves me.
