Review: The Love Hypothesis - Book #1 Love Series -Ali Hazelwood - September 2021

The last few months, I have been trying harder to get back into reading print books as for the past two years all I read was ebooks and my bookshelf kept stacking up with new books and sitting there forgotten about. I have been enjoying clearing it and finally got around to the first book in Ali Hazelwood's series. I have been excited to read this one as the cover etc gave me off Lessons in Chemistry and The Theory of Physics from Penny Reid vibes which are two series I loved of hers. I also am a sucker for the geeky, nerdy, and socially awkward characters as in a way I see myself in them. I may not be a scientist like these characters, but I recognize some of the qualities as I went the writing and arts side of degrees and qualifications. In The Love Hypothesis, we meet Olive who is studying for her Ph.D. in pancreatic cancer and looking for a cure as her mum died from the disease. Olive finds herself in a weird position as her best friend wants to date a guy but she thinks that Olive will be hurt if she dates him. This causes Olive to kiss the first guy she sees and it turns out to be Professor Adam Carlsen. Adam is known for being a hard-ass professor and Mr. Rude and Obnoxious. The pair start a fake-dating romance and of course, you can guess the way this ends as many of us have read many fake romance books. I do have to admit, though I did enjoy this book overall - it was quite a slow-paced and slow-burn romance which annoyed me in spots. However, it was a fun read and I am now looking forward to moving on and reading Book #2 Love on the Brain.

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
