Love on the Brain by Ali Hazelwood

Am I shocked that the female MC is short and tiny and that the male MC is tall and built like a freight train..no. Am I shocked that the two characters refuse to talk to each other and communicate like adults. No. Am I shocked that female MC has the maturity of a middle schooler. Also no.
Yeah I'm really salty about it.... It really took away from my enjoyment of the story, but it's also a sour spot for me. 
Someone please hold my coffee while I yell about how we really don't need any more super short girl and super tall guy romances. like.... it's insulting to women and men, because it creates impossible standards for both. 
*preface with I recognize that body weight and body image are issues that run rampant in our culture, and that eating disorders and body dysmorphia are a thing, but like....if a novice/untrained man can bench press your weight, why are worrying about being heavy
Can you really call a book a STEMinist if it basically fails the Bechdel test...
Ok so it got slightly better during the second half when there was actually some plot. 
Ali....Please....expand your range. Like....please don't write the same story over and over again. But I did love that she had purple hair and tattoos. And there was NASA. and yearning.

Stuck With You by Ali Hazelwood

These books with the characters who never date who find their true love have got to stop raising my expectations. I'm going to die alone. 
We stan consent in this household. A+
I think Ali Hazelwood's writing is a bit formulaic at this point (or she at least likes certain tropes) but like. I enjoyed the book because I didn't go in expecting to like...die from it. 
Erik is cool.
I would appreciate a little more size diversity..aka can the girls please not be small...

Under One Roof by Ali Hazelwood

The trope. The forced proximity trope. Iconic.
Do I love roommate shenanigans. Yes. 
Also. Like... The ace/demi rep, which is what I am always here for 
Also the fact that this a novella series where the characters kind of know each other..which is like...my favorite thing.

The Love Hypothesis by Ali Hazelwood

Adam vine (also he's a science nerd and his name is Adam which sounds like atom--oh I'm funny)
It's the demi rep for me. 
.....How am I smarter than the main character because I've already made the connection.
I'm just cackling. 
"Carry yourself with the confidence of a mediocre white man"
My brain just put together another thing. Evil laugh. 
Ok but is anyone else getting like... Pride and Prejudice Darcy and Wickman vibes....
Is everyone bi....or bi-romantic....because I'm here for that. 
Slaps. Just. I'm fine.
All the claps for consent.
