I liked it, but not as much as Ali's other books. I did feel almost like I was reading the same story with a different setting. Nothing inherently wrong with that, but on this occasion it did feel like another repetition of Ali's formula for her books.
However, I thoroughly enjoyed it either way. The characters were really funny and lovable, which you can always count on Ali to deliver.

I've seen Ali Hazelwood everywhere without ever picking up one of her works.
I'm super glad I did.
I agree that this is not groundbreaking or revolutionary in any way, but I got exactly what I was promised.
This is a fun romance, the FMC is quirky and cute, and the MMC is tall and handsome. Elsie is a people pleaser who was relatable in some ways and fun to read about; I'd also like to point out that the STEM and physics part of the story felt real and I could see that AH knew what she was writing about and didn't invent some unrealistic stuff.
And even if it's not the best book ever, it made me laugh, it made me happy and the vibes deserve a good rating.

I really loved this book i read it in under 48 hours. Love story was very sweet and the characters were fun realistic and charming. I loved seeing aro-ace representation and as a diabetic seeing my own experiences in print was cool! The only reason it lost .25 stars is because there were a couple moments that felt a little awkward because of the word choices, although that could easily fall to personal preference. The science stuff went over my head but it was still an easy read even if you don’t understand particle crystallization. Overall a great read that I really enjoyed, this author is super fun and I cant suggest her enough!

There is so much to love about this book. It’s so far my favorite of Ali’s books and Jack may be my new tippity top book boyfriend.

Lots of twists and reveals to be had. Ali crammed a lot of great plot into this book, and still kept it well paced and believable.

I also very much appreciate the inclusion of aro/ace spec in this, and demi in her other books.
