Title: 'Love Hypothesis' ❤

Author.

Genre: Novel

Score (1 to 6): 6

"The Love Hypothesis by Ali Hazelwood is statistically Amazon's best love book of 2021. Reading it, I can see why. I've shared with you many times that romance novels are not my strong suit, but in recent years I've been discovering some really wonderful books in this subject that bring me wonderful emotion and are easy to read. "Hypothesis of Love" completely turned my idea of this genre on its head. In my opinion, the best romance novels have the potential to expose readers to authentic and imperfect relationships and offer new topics for discussion without making us feel like it's a story we've already read.

The story focuses a lot on Olive and Adam's lives outside of their novel, which makes their love story more believable and interesting. In most romance novels the theme is about "forbidden love", "enemies to lovers" p others. "Hypothesis of Love" has a completely different take - the contrast between Adam's snarky attitude and Olive's sweet attitude. There's even quite a bit of focus on Olive's work itself and what it means to her. While it's great to dive into the magic of a romantic story, having a secondary plot that deals with real issues is what makes a love novel really great . While The Love Hypothesis is a fun romantic read, it also deals with the pain of family death, power differentials, intimacy challenges, and most often sexual harassment in the workplace. Love is beautiful, fun and amazing, but "Hypothesis for Love "takes the opportunity to include conversations about serious issues. While these topics may be difficult for some readers, I think these plot points, heavy conversations, and complex emotions take "Hypothesis for Love "to the next level and it deservedly gets so much reader comfort and the cherished 5 stars on Goodreads.

A little bit about sougettes:

Stanford University student Olive Smith gets involved in something she's not particularly prepared for. Jeremy is Olive's ex and boyfriend, but after their relationship he falls for her friend Anne, who our protagonist thinks is not quite up to snuff with love relationships. To prove the opposite, Olive urgently starts looking for a boyfriend to introduce to Anne and everyone else. She finds him in the person of Adam Carlson. The first man she sees without particularly liking him, but her only option. He's the boogeyman of Stanford University, cold tempered, but it turns out he's interested in pretending to be Olive's boyfriend, and quite successfully. That's when the cycle of lies begins, and as you know, after every lie told, a number of new ones follow. It's a game whose rules are not at all clear. There are a couple of options that can happen - either you will get entangled in lies or one of them will fall in love. But what happens in the end I'm not going to tell you here either, I just don't like to give away the most interesting things, I leave it to you to find out.

I'd love for you to let us know your opinion of the book, to share your impression of this love explosion, with each other. If you're looking for a light read for the warmer months, for a break like I chose or just want to read something different - this is your book. Fresh, full of emotion but not saccharine, love in every form.
