But when it comes time to actually make a move and put her heart on the line, there's only one question that matters: What will Bee Koenigswasser do? Olive,” Dr. Aslan interrupted her with a stern tone. “What do I always tell you?” “Um . . . ‘Don’t misplace the multichannel pipette’?” “The other thing.” She sighed. “ ‘Carry yourself with the confidence of a mediocre white man.’ ”

Okay... so. I really don't know where to start with this one. Like, I truly have no idea how to articulate how incredible this book was. Maybe if I say this it will come across: I read it twice in a row. I originally read it, loved it, and then I was traveling but I kept thinking about how amazing the book was, so I was like... You know what, I'm gonna reread passages of it on my various flights. And ended up just rereading ALL OF IT. It's one of my faves I've ever read, and I'm pretty sure it's my fave P&P adaptation and to be clear, there are a tons of things that work in this book, but I think that my favorite is how Nikki Payne has managed to really capture the spirit of every single Jane Austen character and to adapt them so masterfully, while keeping them true to the specific setting(s) of this book. One example among a million: Maurice (who's Liza Bennet's little brother and the Mary of this story). Like... He's TOTALLY Mary, but also such a complex, well rounded character, and here I am, stanning Maurice. Nikki, what have you done to me? And: can you do it some more? It was so perfect!! Levi is an incredible love interest, and by that I mean I am absolutely in love with him. He and Bee went to the same grad school, where his hatred of Bee was known by everyone, for reasons she never quite understood. So when they're forced to co-lead BLINK, Bee must put aside the past to work towards her future. But of course, not everything is what it seems. I am still struggling on whether or not to round up or down, so if my star rating changes just know that's me being indecisive af.

Lo que más amé: A Levi, que me hizo llorar varias veces porque en la vida real no existen hombres así, jajajaja. Maybe it also bothers me that they’re all obsessed with cats. This book and The Love Hypothesis felt SO similar I almost kept getting them confused.

The sex scenes! - everyone will have a different opinion, but the sex scenes worked for me although I think they had PIV too early. I would have preferred one more scene where they did some touching/grinding before PIV, but it doesn't really matter at the end of the day.

She has to confront that man who turns her life into hell by telling him how he makes her feel for years! Bee. Oh, Bee. Before I really rip into Miss Bumblebee, let me provide a mere ✨sample✨ of the thoughts and questions from my head as I read this book: Levi cups my face, forehead touching mine. His hands—they are my home. “Bee. Don’t take this from us,” he murmurs. Ragged. Careful. Hopeful. “Please.” I’ve never wanted anything more than to say yes. I’ve never wished to reach for something as I do now. And I’ve never been so utterly, petrifyingly scared to lose something.” I need to make an apology. this was sent to me as an arc. an ARC! an advanced reading copy that i read over a year after it came out. whoops. instead of thanking netgalley like i usually do, im saying sorry! pls forgive me and send me more books. i love u I went into this book with an open mind. Had no intentions of comparing it to The Love Hypothesis, but as I started making progress it became quite clear that it is the EXACT same formula as The Love Hypothesis.

it could have been a lot better, its no literary masterpiece but woah did i have the time of my life yesterday(this morning?) anyways i have to go to school now i will ignore the contstant pop culture referances, the galaxy leggins( i cant even 💀), the very infuriating misscomunication, the constant stream of facts about marie curie (yes she is amazing but chill). Add to this fact that we have to spend the end of this book allowing the author to delude herself into thinking that she can write action sequences, and also that that is in any way what we are here for...I hope in the future, Hazelwood writes books with a new hypothesis. The same formula can't work every time when it comes to writing. Love Theoretically is already a let down in my eyes, but I'll give it a go for the cover, which I'm sure will look cute on my bookshelf (I'm weird that way) and that will be it for my experience with the author. While I appreciate that she writes about STEM and especially women in STEM- does she not have any other ideas? Does she not want to put in effort to explore and write something newer? Can she not write anything without the miscommunication trope? Bee Königswasser lives by a simple code: What would Marie Curie do? If NASA offered her the lead on a neuroengineering project - a literal dream come true - Marie would accept without hesitation. Duh. But the mother of modern physics never had to co-lead with Levi Ward.
