i love ali (i really do) but maybe her no face books worked better for me (idk if it's a thing i'm not sure but i love Deep End and PSR). almost dnf this one... overall it was okay but it just doesn't work for me

I read this is in a day, it's adorable. Basically the story of two people who, if they just communicated honestly, could have saved themselves a few months of emotional anxiety and stress. But super cute! I recommend!

Love Hypothesis

The book is very passionate about the story it tells, at first book might be a little boring but when you start to understand the characters you start to enjoy a lot. Book does a very good job on making you feel attached to the characters. Smut scenes felt a bit too much for me so i skiped a couple pages there but overall this book is doing a really good job on giving you a good time and making you feel lost in the book. I have never felt this much emotions while reading this book. At some parts i found myself giggling and im in this emotional rollercoaster. I enjoyed this book a lot and would recommend it to anyone who wants to have a good time while reading.

“because i’m starting to wonder if this is what being in love is. being okay with ripping yourself to shreds, so the other person can stay whole.”

genuinely have no words. i loved adam and olive so fucking much it insane. i was giggling and kicking my feet from their first interaction. you could tell from the beginning that he wanted to real date her not fake. 

he was always one of her number one supports and would have done anything to protect her. for real grumpy and sunshine trope. i loved any interaction they had, little or big. 

they are by far my favourite ali hazelwood couple. and i loved the adam POV for chapter 16. it gave so much insight on the way he saw olive and his feelings towards her. 

reread: this book was by far ten times better than when i first read it back in 2024. adam and olive are perfect for echother. that man was soooo down bad. but i really wished adam had actually killed * because what the fuck?

A BuzzFeed Best Summer Read of 2021 When a fake relationship between scientists meets the irresistible force of attraction, it throws one woman's carefully calculated theories on love into chaos. As a third-year Ph.D. candidate, Olive Smith doesn't believe in lasting romantic relationships--but her best friend does, and that's what got her into this situation. Convincing Anh that Olive is dating and well on her way to a happily ever after was always going to take more than hand-wavy Jedi mind tricks: Scientists require proof. So, like any self-respecting biologist, Olive panics and kisses the first man she sees. That man is none other than Adam Carlsen, a young hotshot professor--and well-known ass. Which is why Olive is positively floored when Stanford's reigning lab tyrant agrees to keep her charade a secret and be her fake boyfriend. But when a big science conference goes haywire, putting Olive's career on the Bunsen burner, Adam surprises her again with his unyielding support and even more unyielding...six-pack abs. Suddenly their little experiment feels dangerously close to combustion. And Olive discovers that the only thing more complicated than a hypothesis on love is putting her own heart under the microscope.

I want someone to buy me pumpkin spice lattes like Adam does🥼

Not a huge fan of smut books but this one was made to not feel like too "heavy" iyk 

I LOVEEE the relationship of the 2 mains 

And the fact that she realized she liked him before like the end of their fake dating contract kinda healed something in me towards this beloved trope

This is my very first Ali Hazelwood book I’ve finished, and I absolutely enjoyed it! I never expected to love it so much, but the fast-paced opening chapter hooked me instantly. I also adored the fake-dating trope, one of my favourites. Ali Hazelwood captured my attention with the two main leads: Adam Carlsen, a professor, and Olive Smith, a third-year PhD candidate. Their chemistry was electric–––full of tension and definitely spicy. What I loved about their romance was that it didn’t jump straight into passion; it began so awkwardly, which I found so endearing. Adam and Olive’s relationship blossomed beautifully. I loved discovering that Adam had loved and cared for Olive all along. They’re perfect for each other–truly my grumpy x sunshine pairing. I enjoyed seeing them gradually grow comfortable with one another throughout the Love Hypothesis. Adam may be reluctant and stern at first, but he eventually warms up to Olive’s cheeky personality. Their banter was absolutely adorable! Can’t wait for the film next year!

Ogni volta che ho la certezza matematica di non essere una tipa da romance, mi convinco (o mi convincono - grazie Aurora 💗) a leggere un romanzo che mi fa innamorare di questo genere. Sì, è vero, io parto prevenuta nei confronti dei romanzi rosa, ma perdonatemi, sono cresciuta in una casa piena di Harmony (di mia madre), e quelli erano veramente da vomito. Non posso dire di essere partita con zero aspettative, perché questo libro mi è stato consigliato da un’autrice, Aurora Monteforte, che ha scritto un romance che ho AMATO (Speakeasy, lo stra stra stra consiglio), quindi possiamo già capire che avevo un minimo di aspettative…. OVVIAMENTE sono state AMPIAMENTE soddisfatte e superate!! Partiamo col fare i complimentissimi ad Ali Hazelwood che ha mantenuto un ritmo così incalzante da togliermi preziosissime ore di sonno perchè non riuscivo a smettere di leggere, posare il libro/kindle mi è stato quasi impossibile, infatti l’ho letto nel giro di 24 ore (perdoname madre por mi vida loca). Ma parliamo della ciccia vera: i personaggi! Olive secondo me è stata decisamente azzeccata: traumi pregressi che ovviamente influiscono nella sua vita di tutti i giorni ma senza appesantire troppo il lettore, ho trovato il suo personaggio molto lineare e coerente (poi è una che combina un casino dietro l’altro per coprire i casini precedenti, insomma una casinista dal cuore tenero); Adam… Avevo decisamente paura che si potesse cadere nel clichè con il suo personaggio, ma devo dire che è stato decisamente una bella sorpresa, ovviamente il grumpy del nostro grumpy vs sunshine, che poi alla fine tanto grumpy non sei, sei un po’ sfigatino come tutti noi che quando ci prendiamo una cotta piuttosto che parlare stiamo nell’ombra per mes,i se non anni, piuttosto che sembrare dei sottoni di merda e dichiarare al* dirett* interessat* i nostri sentimenti😅 Apprezzatissimi anche i personaggi secondari di Anh, Malcolm e Holden (quest’ultimo decisamente il mio prefe ❤️). Altro punto a favore di questo libro (incredibile ma vero) lo slowburn. Non credevo che lo avrei mai detto ma, raga, era stra necessario e non avrei accettato nulla di diverso!! AMO AMO AMO. Ho adorato ogni secondo di questa lettura e sicuramente leggerò altri libri di Ali Hazelwood. 100% recommended! ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ 🌶️🌶️🌶️

Takie prędzej 4,5 - gdyby nie było tak mocno opisanych scen , było to nie smaczne , tak książka sama w sobie bardzo urocza , ❤️ Znajdźcie mi takiego Adama ( ideał , lepiej bym go nie mogła opisać )

La hipótesis del amor

Olive es un sol, Adam es un green flag andante, la dinámica entre ellos es adictiva desde el momento cero y el desarrollo del libro es suficientemente bueno para mantener enganchada a quienes no tienen ni idea de nada relacionado al mundo científico.

Recomiendo 100%

Contemporary romance. Fake dating, slow burn and spice meets STEM/Academia. A bit predictable, but an easy read for someone who likes hallmark/romcom books. Although it was a simple read. This book does a good job touching on women’s discrimination in STEM and their struggles becoming scientists. It was a fun read overall. Who doesn’t love a HEA!!

Bien, me entretuvo, me desesperó y me hizo sonreír

finally gave in and read this, and i ended up enjoying it much more than i thought i would! i can see why this is the book that catapulted ali hazelwood to fame — so far, i think it might actually be the best out of the books i’ve read by her. it has all her standard storytelling tropes laid out in their most refined form. did not realize i was reading it at such a timely moment w the movie? series? (i can never tell lol) coming out soon, so i’ll be tuning in!

Not to be dramatic, but The Love Hypothesis single-handedly revived my will to read. The slow burn? Immaculate. The tension? Had me kicking my feet, giggling, and putting the book down just to process. And the fact that it wasn’t dual perspective?? Honestly so refreshing – it just flowed effortlessly, and I was hooked from page one.

Olive and Adam’s dynamic had me obsessed. The character development felt so real that by the end I was basically part of their friend group (in my mind). I can’t remember the last time a romance gave me such a serotonin boost. 10/10, would fake date a grumpy professor again.
