The Love Hypothesis | 
pickI'd held off on reading this one as it had been posted everywhere, and I usually do not have good luck with really popular books.
This one was a great surprise! The characters were interesting, the storyline was fun (and at times made fun of itself), and the romance is full open door.
Would recommend!
pick3✨. 🎧
Hypothesis: Getting older might mean I'm starting to like the rom-com genre 😱
This was cute, fun and a fast read/listen.
I'm surprised with how much I liked it despite all the cringe-worthy clichés.

pickI just finished rereading this book for the second time, and I couldn‘t put it down. Although it‘s definitely cliched and cringey at times, it is the perfect mindless romance and has really cute moments that made me giggle and kick my feet. As a chemist, I‘m also definitely biased to a good academic lovers trope:) My ex roommates hates this book, but this seems to mean she is a cynic who doesn‘t believe in love
pickI LOVED this book!! I can‘t believe how quickly I blew through this book (2 evenings!!). After the dud of a romance my last book was, it was nice to see one done well.
This is also how my #bookspinbingo board turned out for February. I thought I would get more reading done this month, but my birthday plus Hogwart‘s Legacy and VR2 distracted me a bunch! 🤣

If I'm going for the bookshelf nearest to me, I guess I'll be reading The Love Hypothesis.
This also works for #pop23 - a book that started out as fan fiction, I believe.
I don't usually read romance because I'm a cranky curmudgeon (or maybe because my own love life is so perpetually depressing 🤣😶🌫️) Let's see if you can melt my Scroogy heart, Hazelwood.
pickI throughly enjoyed this romance! I loved how quirky the characters were and how it didn‘t shy away from problems you see in academia! I will for sure read more by her!
pickThis book was amazing. I couldn‘t put it down. There were real world problems and obvious simping and it made everything okay.
4.5⭐️
I will be reading the tagged book for #sharreadathon starting tomorrow. It is a book on her Litsy TBR and also on my shelf.

Thoughts pending...so far in this book is so good I can't put it down yet the cringey romantic parts are making me want to throw it across the room. Gonna have to finish it but right now I can't tell whether I love it or hate it 🖤📚😂📚🖤
pickI wasn‘t sure that I was going to like this book when I first started it. It was definitely predictable, but it worked. I think the mix of the academic setting and the truly lovable characters made this book really special. I loved the friend group in this and the story. I would love to see this adapted into a movie because I think it would be really fun!
I promised my bestie I‘d start this as soon as I‘d arrived, so Tomorrow and Tomorrow and Tomorrow is waiting in the wings for a few days (as much as it kills me to set it aside).
pickI really enjoyed this and I don't usually like romance books. I think the academic setting made the difference.
It was well written and paced with interesting characters. Yes, it's a bit predictable and tropey but it worked.
Glad I finally got around to finishing this. I've stopped and started it multiple times. I think this was on my #shelfofshame
Jumping in to #AuldLangSpine right away after the seasonal drivel. It was a heavy holiday, the first Christmas without my mom, so some light reading is in order. It is a wonderfully eclectic list to allow more depth as the days get longer hopefully right along with my attention span. Thanks @BookNAround @monalyisha
Ahh @Mitch I've been wanting this book for ages, and you got my favourite chocolate! Thank you so much, and have a lovely christmas🎄🥰

pickWow!! I picked this as my #BOTM Book of the Year but honestly wasn‘t expecting to love it- let alone read it in one sitting! But I totally loved it and absolutely couldn‘t put it down! Such a delightful romance- steamier and with great bantering dialogue and a great cast of characters! Was it predictable- sure, but in the best sort of way! I had fun reading it and wouldn‘t have picked it up otherwise so I‘m glad to have not missed out! Such fun!
pickOlive kisses the nearest guy, which ends up being Adam, the notably hot Stanford scientist. They decide to fake date so Adam can receive his grants for research. Will their feelings get in the way of both their experiments?
This book was so worth the hype. It was so charming & funny. I enjoyed both of the characters. The plot & the writing were both stellar. I would definitely read it again.

pickWith this book I just felt so much. I don‘t have words to describe it.
It was literally amazing.
I loved it because of the intrigued story and because of the way Ali Hazelwood decided to tell it. She made me laugh, think, cry (a lot, really) and I just loved every second spent on this book.
Adam and Olive will always remain in my heart. ❤️
⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️
I've had this book for a while, still sitting in my tbr, but I've heard all kinds of amazing things about it. 🥰 Have you guys read this book?
How would you rate it?
pickI loved the brain, the overthinking and crazy friendship that Olive, main character, was given in the story. Really enjoyed the context and I could really picture the description given. Really loved it.
pickThis was exactly as cute as everyone says it is!! I stayed up late to finish it last night. So fun when a book is worth the hype. I chuckled throughout and I completely adored Adam the nerdy, awkward professor.
pickI was not expecting this to be so steamy, oh but it was! I really did love this story. It was such a cute love story with lots of comedy and relatable moments. It also touches on important topics like the roles women play in academia and STEM, challenges they may face including assumptions, bias, and discrimination.
This was a quick read that is funny, romantic, and adorable!
I‘m excited to be starting this one! I‘ve seen SO many positive things on Litsy and on Goodreads. I recently enjoyed all three of Hazelwood‘s novellas.
bailedMy crappy luck with romance fiction books continues.
The fake dating thing was awkward, but I assumed it would get better. It didn‘t!
Tom the supervisor of the company Olive does research with wants se*. in order for her to get credit she had to lay him and I thought, Oh her professor Adam that gives her support will help olive ruin his reputation. I thought he‘ll get fired, but no. Adam r***s her in the hotel room after her speech.
pickI thoroughly enjoyed reading this book!! Even though the fake-dating storyline is pretty predictable, I really didn‘t care since the overall plot was so cute. The academia setting was a nice bonus too :) hoping to read more from Ali!
Adam : "Did you... Did you just kiss me?"
Olive : "Nope"

I wish you could see yourself the way I see you

This is the book where you want to live inside it forgetting all ur worries and depression. This one helped me to get through emptiness and filled me with happiness.

pickThis story was great. It had some cute laugh out loud moments, and the characters were written well!
Each of our books for spa weekend.
pickLoved this book, almost imposible to put down. For someone who has been around academia, this book was so relatable in many ways which allowed me to connect that much more with the characters. Additionally, it is such a beautiful love story that at the same time can make you laugh. I started reading it during my free time at work and I found myself containing my laugh various times. A fav for sure ❤️.
pickOk ok...I admit that 24% into the book I was not into it. I contemplated into stop reading it, I even talked to my book groups about it but finally decided to push through and OMG I'm so glad I did. The story was so cute. I fell in love with Olive and Adam. I even cry à little. And for the most part I smiled like an idiot yhe whole time I was reading it.😍
I started this book three days ago, snd I am 9 percent into it, and so far it is a fun book. my friends and mutual friends all spoke highly it.
❤️ IPOTESI: Di fronte a una scelta tra A (una situazione leggermente seccante) e B (un casino colossale con conseguenze devastanti), finirò inevitabilmente per scegliere B
«Ho un quesito. Uno specifico quesito di ricerca. Una cosa che voglio scoprire.» [...] «Una cosa che temo nessun altro scoprirà se non lo faccio io.» [...] «Una cosa che mi sta a cuore. E non mi fido degli altri. Perché finora non se ne sono occupati. Perché...» Perché è successo qualcosa di brutto. Perché voglio fare la mia parte affinché non succeda più. [...] «mi sta a cuore», ripeté Olive. «La ricerca che voglio fare»
«Le cose stanno cosi: non ho idea se tu sia abbastanza brava, ma non è questo che dovresti chiederti. II mondo accademico è tanta spesa. poca resa. Quello che conta è se la tua motivazione per entrare a fare parte di questo mondo è abbastanza buona. Dunque. Perché il dottorato?»
«Tranquillo. Le date di scadenza sono per i deboli.» Un suono acuto, una specie di sbuffo. «Le date di scadenza servono per non ritrovarsi poi a piangere in un angolo del mio bagno.» A meno che quel tizio non fosse il signor Stanford in persona. doveva piantarla di chiamarlo il suo bagno.
«Mi sta a cuore», ripeté Olive. «la ricerca che voglio fare.» Aveva ventitré anni ed era sola al mondo. Non voleva i fine settimana o uno stipendio decoroso. Voleva tornare indietro nel tempo. Essere meno sola. Ma siccome era impossibile, si accontentava di aggiustare ciò che poteva.
pickI really loved this book. For once, the failure to communicate actually made some sense (social awkwardness/anxiety instead of pure stubbornness). The humor was perfect, the growth of the relationship worked - it was a great romance read.
I am loving #TheLoveHypothesis a little over halfway through this book 😍
While sometimes momentarily cringy with some of the over stated or overly obvious sentences, overall this book is a delight. I love a certain man, who knows what he wants. It was also fun to read a romance set in academia as a current PhD student! Will be reading more by this author for sure!
so-so
