Um yeah so Ali Hazelwood outdid herself with Love, Theoretically! It’s very science-y (moreso than her others) and I fully accept I didn’t understand the liquid Crystal stuff whatsoever - but that didn’t take anything away from my enjoyment of the novel. I think Elsie and Jack may be my favorite couple she’s written. Plus, the Taylor Swift vibes are really <b>there</b> regardless of the bonus content in the Barnes and Noble edition that assigns Taylor Swift songs to certain chapters.
Here is what to expect when you read Love, Theoretically:
🖤 Fake dating trope
🧬 Women in STEM
👊🏻 Learning to stand up for yourself
🪩 Endless Taylor Swift references
🧠 Quick wit
🧀 Copious amounts of cheese
🧛🏻♂️ The Twilight Saga
🦔 A pincushion (IYKYK)
🌈LGBTQ+ representation in side characters
🌶️ A few spicy scenes
🧎🏻A man who isn’t afraid to get on his knees for the women he loves
😂 Many LOL worthy moments
🫒 Olive & Adam cameo
🐝 Mention of Dr. Bee Königwasser
