Love on the Brain: From the bestselling author of The Love Hypothesis

Product Information

Despite not being a Science Bitch (after almost flunking chemistry in high school I never looked back), I am all for writing about women in STEM.

I truly understand that not everyone is going to see that someone actually likes them when there are so many instances where it looks like they don't. i’m gonna keep this review short and sweet, but there were quite a lot of things i disliked about this book.Or that very annoying musical that my high school did my junior year about fake water coming from a fake rock. we are talking about a man who refused to sit next to his crush bc in his word ‘it was hard to think when you were close’.

I think I adored Love on the Brain even more, just because it really had me laughing out loud at some of Bee's inner. But I also know, I don't have to bring down anyone or any man, especially when the person is doing nothing wrong. From the New York Times bestselling author of The Love Hypothesis comes a new STEMinist rom-com in which a scientist is forced to work on a project with her nemesis – with explosive results.The 103 third parties who use cookies on this service do so for their purposes of displaying and measuring personalized ads, generating audience insights, and developing and improving products. There are also other scientists, whether working on the same projects as Levi and Bee or not, and a clear representation of who is who.

Marie Curie fan girl, devoted Jedi, purple haired, ultra smart Bee Königswasser and her nemeses, brooding, know-it-all, reserved Levi Ward who has greenest hypnotizing eyes and their fiery, explosive chemistry hook me up! Granted, if you don’t care much about Bee from the beginning, I think this will be a problem throughout the story because Bee’s voice felt sloppy, childish, and immature, as if Bee were talking to us. However, I can totally see the pitchforks coming out for this couple—how it's completely unrealistic, how there's no way it would take her this long to come to her senses. But Levi made his feelings toward Bee very clear in grad school--archenemies work best employed in their own galaxies far, far away. Es hermoso, feel-good y tiene una gran dosis de “nos conocemos, pienso que me odias, nos fuerzan a trabajar juntos, hay tensión, nos volvemos sex buddies, creo que no significa nada, pero en el fondo siempre hemos estado enamorados y lo disfrazamos con mala comunicación y odio falso”.It felt like everything was turned up a notch - the personality, the science, the chemistry, the pop culture references. I have this on TBR and wanted to read this month but I’m terribly behind in reading this month so might read it next month.

They were half-asleep while she was gone, but now she’s here and my body thinks it’s a fucking teenager and I don’t know what to do. He and Bee went to the same grad school, where his hatred of Bee was known by everyone, for reasons she never quite understood. But when Levi and Bee seem to be pulled together when Bee’s equipment and strange things start happening, as they work together to solve the case as well as try to work together with their job, Bee seems to think he is softening up on her and she starts to second guess her feelings for him too.

This is an enemies-to-lovers trope, and it’s got a You Got Mail vibe as the two main characters correspond via Twitter without knowing who they are DMing. Still, there is so little personality on both of them that it feels like I don’t know either character well enough to form an opinion. I believe replacing it with a scene about Levi opening up more or talking about himself more to understand better where he comes from could have provided a solid addition to get a different interpretation of him. And as soon as she arrives at her work space: she finds out she doesn’t have one: because there’s shipment problem about her equipments and clock is ticking, her superiors force her to show them some scientific results about her project, the very same project she cannot start. She brought up that in these books its all about women being independent and being a women in stem and not needing a man.
