Can't Beat the Chemistry by Kat Colmer

4.0

It’s pre-med brains that turn me on, not drum belting bleeding hearts.

Mj is often harsh and judgemental. She's very intelligent when it comes to studies but clueless at social situations and when she decided to tutor her brother's roommate, Luke, she often comes to realise that her judgements can be wrong.

Through the book, we see how she develops and turns into a girl that is not only more openminded but also more compassionate and kind.

Her parents - specifically her mother - are hard on her and want for her to become a doctor even though that is not what she really wants and MJ learns to fight back and speak up for what she thinks is right along the way.

Somewhere along the way, MJ starts falling for Luke instead of Jason - her brainy Science partner - which is the starting of a cute and authentic love story.

'Can't Beat the Chemistry' is a heartwarming tale about how people are not always what they seem to be and how they can have hidden depths in them that one could never imagine.
I am really glad I read this book because I really enjoyed it!
