I am immensely grateful to Berkley Romance as they sent me a free review copy of Love on the Brain! I AM SO BLESSED. ðŸ˜
At this point, I would be obsessing over a lullaby if Ali Hazelwood wrote it. 😌 I felt the same way about Love on the Brain as I did about The Love Hypothesis. (The mentioned feelings: screaming, crying and calling the characters "my babies" God knows how many times) But, but I LOVE LOTB A THOUSAND TIMES MORE. Ali has this impeccable quality of making her characters feel like home. With Bee and Levi, it honestly felt like I was getting multiple hugs everytime they had their heart-to-heart conversations.
The plot, the romance, the twists, the angst and the mutual longing/pining - everything about LOTB was just purrrfect! 💅 (this is me taking a page out of Bee's book and making a bad cat pun). I lost count of the number of times Bee made me laugh. The things that went through that girl's brain were so chaotic, my gosh. 😂 And don't even get me started on Levi!!! I didn't think it was possible for me to love a male lead more than Adam Carlsen - but then Levi Ward came into the picture and BAM! ✨ Sparks flew - not only between Bee and Levi but between me and them too. 👀
Love on the Brain made me fall in love with Women in STEM more than ever before. I got to know a lot about their struggles, which in turn made me appreciate the STEM Queens so, so much. The realistic portrayal of academia was really eye-opening. Speaking of science - the chapters of LOTB were titled with parts of the brain/nervous system, etc - and that just made me so happy! (I am a bit biased as I am a biomedicine undergrad) but wow; the layout was so, so clever!!
I didn't know how much I needed LOTB in my life until I read the first chapter. Bee and Levi's story was everything and then some. I love how Ali doesn't shy away from talking about the real stuff - be it mental health, commitment issues, or fear of attachment.
*just finished thoughts from 9/6/22: I just finished reading my ARC of Love on the Brain. I feel so many things right now, but mainly, I feel an immense amount of love for Bee & Levi. I love those idiots to death. This book was everything I needed right now and more. 💕
