amrabad 's review for:

Love, Theoretically by Ali Hazelwood
4.25
funny lighthearted fast-paced
Plot or Character Driven: A mix
Strong character development: Yes
Loveable characters: Yes
Diverse cast of characters: No
Flaws of characters a main focus: Complicated

 
Seriously, what addictive substance does she put in her books? Bride was delicious and I thought it was because of the fantasy elements *cough*
scenting
*cough*. But it turns out she writes that level of tastiness all the time?? 

This was my second Ali Hazelwood book and I really enjoyed myself. I binged through it quickly because I simply could not stop. I really have a strong appreciation for how she writes men. They are basically obsessed with FMC, which we love. Yeah there’s lust, but they want to understand how her brain works, want to spend time with her, want to make her happy in other aspects of her life, and really want to care for her. Who doesn’t want that?

On top of that, her books are funny. I actually laughed out loud a few times while reading this. I also really liked that the couples dynamic and how they interacted with each other was not the same old same old. They felt like unique characters instead of the main couple of any other romcom. 

And thank god for a blonde MMC. I need a blondie every now and then (yes my husband is blonde and yes he is my ideal type).
