Review: The Boyfriend Hypothesis - Book #3 Chemistry Lessons Series - Susannah Nix - March 2018


As readers will know one of my favorite subgenres in romance novels is STEM romance or what I call my Geek Chic Lit, this is where part of my bookstagram name comes from the "GeekChic" and of course NZ for New Zealand.  Previously this book was called Advanced Physical Chemistry, but the author retitled it with a more romantic chick-lit feel - though to be honest I feel like she did the right thing as STEM romance now due to Ali Hazelwood making it popular has made readers eager to sort out other authors who write similar titles like Susannah Nix. In The Boyfriend Hypothesis, we have Penny Popplestone which I loved her name, it sounded like a wonderful historical and whimsical name. Penny's field of STEM is Chemical engineering, but due to working from home after she followed a failed relationship to LA, she now works for the patent office as an examiner and looking up science journals, etc to make sure the patents can be officially made their claims and whether they are new ideas.  She has also just gone through another failed relationship when yet another boyfriend is discovered cheating on her. This sadly for Penny seems to be her way with guys, she is always the girl who gets cheated on.  When a chance #meetcute happens between Penny and the Hot Barista Caleb at the cafe where she has her knitting group, they decide to sleep together as friends with benefits as she believes if she doesn't commit - he can't cheat on her right? What happens though when Penny does start falling for Caleb only to discover he is leaving to go to Medical School? Will Caleb and Penny finally get their HEAs or will this be another fleeting relationship for Penny, where she ends up being the one left behind? Find out in this cute STEM feel-good romance by Susannah Nix.  After finishing this book, it has made me wish I had a group of coffee shop friends as it just seemed such a happy moment to read and left me thinking - I want to be a part of that.

Review: Steel Princess - Book #2 Royal Elite Series - Rina Kent - December 2019 At the end of Book #1, we were left on a cliffhanger of Elsa being pushed into the pool. At the beginning of book #2, she is saved by a newcomer to the school - Knox.  We can see some friendly flirting but nothing more going on between these two, but it riles up Aiden who still has this mindset of "if I can't have her, no-one can" especially since he is supposed to be engaged to Silver Queens. During Book #2 Elsa starts to recall some more memories and goes to Dr.Khan in hopes that he can open her Pandora's box and can restore her full memories of what happened before she was seven years old. We also catch a glimpse during this book of her past and why Aiden King's father blames her for his mother's death and why Aiden considered Elsa a ghost. I liked this book as it was more intense with Elsa's memories and past returning. In Book #2 it is revealed about he

  Review: Punk 57 - Penelope Douglas - October 2016 As soon as I read Bully by Penelope Douglas, I was in love with this author. So when she released a new one who had my favorite theme of penpals and that whole friend to lovers going on, I knew I had to read it. The book started out with a bit of background where we learned about how Misha and Ryen were placed together in a classroom project penpal program. The pair continues to write to each other right through the year, and then they take it to the next level and continue through the rest of their schooling. Fast forward to high school Misha is in a band and Ryen is out with her friends and they complete a scavenger hunt form. Ryen is not what Misha expected especially from her letters. Tragedy occurs, and Misha turns up at Ryen's school under a fake name. This doesn't go over too well as Ryen is nothing like her letters, in fact, she is as fake as can be and Misha aka Masen hates her, in fact, she
