Description

A stunning hardcover collector’s edition of Ali Hazelwood’s instant New York Times bestseller and TikTok sensation featuring: • A shimmering, revamped cover • Endpapers with all new art from Lilith Saur featuring Olive and Adam • STEM stenciled spredges • A sunny, foil stamped case • Fun additional chapter heading doodles throughout, and... • A brand new bonus chapter featuring THAT KISS from Adam’s point of view When a fake relationship between scientists meets the irresistible force of attraction, it throws one woman's carefully calculated theories on love into chaos. As a third-year Ph.D. candidate, Olive Smith doesn't believe in lasting romantic relationships—but her best friend does, and that's what got her into this situation. Convincing Anh that Olive is dating and well on her way to a happily ever after was always going to take more than hand-wavy Jedi mind tricks: Scientists require proof. So, like any self-respecting biologist, Olive panics and kisses the first man she sees. That man is none other than Adam Carlsen, a young hotshot professor—and well- known ass. Which is why Olive is positively floored when Stanford's reigning lab tyrant agrees to keep her charade a secret and be her fake boyfriend. But when a big science conference goes haywire, putting Olive's career on the Bunsen burner, Adam surprises her again with his unyielding support and even more unyielding...six-pack abs. Suddenly their little experiment feels dangerously close to combustion. And Olive discovers that the only thing more complicated than a hypothesis on love is putting her own heart under the microscope. Read more

  • Peer-Reviewed and Collector-Approved
Format: Hardcover
I first read The Love Hypothesis back in August 2022, and it quickly became one of my all-time favorites. So when I heard a collector’s edition was being released, I didn’t even hesitate—I needed it. And wow, it absolutely delivers! The redesigned cover is even more stunning in person, and the foil-stamped book sleeve makes it feel like a true keepsake. The new endpapers, featuring beautifully illustrated scenes of Olive and Adam by Lilith Saur, are a perfect touch. I also loved the STEM-inspired stenciled page edges—such a clever detail! Inside, there are cute, nerdy chapter doodles scattered throughout, which made the reading experience even more fun. But the real treat? A bonus chapter with that kiss, this time from Adam’s point of view. Trust me, it’s everything fans could want and more. This edition is a book lover’s dream—thoughtful, gorgeous, and completely collector-worthy! ************************************************************* 🎧Audiobook review from August 2022🎧 If you told me a fake-dating, science-loving romance would have me rooting from the prologue, I’d have raised an eyebrow—then immediately hit play on the audiobook. Ali Hazelwood’s The Love Hypothesis hooked me so hard I’m pretty sure Adam and Olive moved into my brain rent-free. Olive’s adorably nerdy charm and her journey to embrace both her scientist smarts and womanly confidence had me cheering her on throughout the whole book! And then there’s Adam. A hot, smart guy with a dry sense of humor and surprisingly great bedroom skills. Honestly, what more could you ask for? The audiobook really brought the story to life. Teddy Hamilton’s voice made Adam impossible not to love, and Callie Dalton captured Olive perfectly. If you want a romance that feels real and fun, this one’s a winner—especially on audio. ... show more

  • Fluffy Rom-Com
Format: Kindle
FINAL DECISION: This book is fun and light, like cotton candy. Even the "serious" storyline is really fluff because it lacks complexity. I liked the book, but I probably won't remember it in a year. That being said, the book is perfect for someone looking for a fun rom-com. THE STORY: Olive Smith is a STEM field Ph.D. candidate at Stanford. When Olive realizes that her best friend, Anh, is perfect for the guy that Olive is casually dating, Olive decides to help their romance along. Olive knows that Anh won't make a move even after a breakup because of Anh's loyalty to Olive. So Olive tells Anh that she has already moved on and is dating someone else. When Anh shows up at the lab when Olive is supposed to be on a date, Olive grabs the first guy she finds and asks him to kiss her. The man agrees, and Olive soon finds out that she has been kissing, Adam Adam Carlsen, a young brilliant professor, and a total jerk. Surprisingly, he also agrees to keep up the fake relationship facade telling Olive that he could benefit as well. There is an expiration date for the ruse, but Olive can't help but find that the fake relationship feels more real every one of those days. OPINION: I thought this was a sweet romantic comedy. Hazelwood's writing style is witty, charming, and engaging, and her characters are lovable, relatable, and full of personality. Rather than presenting a traditional alpha male lead who bulldozes his way into Olive's life, Adam is respectful, supportive, and willing to listen. Overall, this book is delightful and left me feeling warm and fuzzy inside. It's the perfect book to curl up with on a rainy day, and it is a fun and lighthearted read that made me laugh and smile. The secondary characters and their romances made me smile as well. This book also has some grumpy/sunshine vibes as Olive teases Adam out of his being too serious and makes him see himself more clearly which I really loved. I also really liked that Adam is so supportive of Olive's work. The negative to me is twofold. First, I really didn't like the happy-for-now ending. I'm not sure that these two won't break up in a year. This is true especially because we don't really learn anything about these characters having a deep relationship. Instead, everything is funny and light. Even the serious items we learn are not really the stuff that sustains relationships. Second, the entire story was pretty shallow, and everything could be predicted from the start. There is a harassment story that was clear a mile away including how it would obviously be resolved. So while I enjoyed this book, it lacks the depth that would make me come back to re-read. WORTH MENTIONING: The pumpkin spice drink wars made me laugh out loud. CONNECTED BOOKS: THE LOVE HYPOTHESIS is a standalone book. STAR RATING: I give this book 4 stars. ... show more
