Based on the available information and the data hitherto collected, my hypothesis is that the further I stay away from love, the better off I will be.

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 PhD 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 on her way to a happily ever after was always going to be tough, scientists require proof. So, like any self-respecting woman, 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 he agrees to keep her charade a secret and be her fake boyfriend. But when a big science conference goes haywire and Adam surprises her again with his unyielding support (and his unyielding abs), their little experiment feels dangerously close to combustion.

Olive soon discovers that the only thing more complicated than a hypothesis on love is putting her own heart under the microscope.

Reading Lass

Sweet, clever and a smokin' slow burn romance!

Reviewed in Australia on 30 September 2021

I had to take a moment after finishing The Love Hypothesis to collect my thoughts. I'll say a few things, but the only message you really need to take away is, YOU NEED TO READ THIS BOOK. Yes in caps. That's how strongly I feel about this book!

The Love Hypothesis was sweet, clever, funny and the swoon - ooft, look it's pretty clear by now that I loved it. Ali Hazelwood has delivered a fresh romance based within the STEM academia world in that combines the comfort of well loved romance tropes without feeling overly predictable.
This story is one of loyalty, friendship and love, and I can't recommend it enough! Read it. Then come join me with your love heart eyes as we wait for the next from this amazing debut author.

Loved It!

Reviewed in Australia on 26 April 2022

The Love Hypothesis has two of my favourite tropes that I love to read about in my romance books, the fake relationship and grumpy/sunshine tropes.
This story was such a delight to read; the number of times I sat there reading with a smile on my face or an aww said out loud was too numerous to count.
It's one of those books where I found myself
struggling to put it down, and then when I finally did, I ended up picking it up again straight away.
I can say nothing negative about this book; I loved everything about it; I'm also quite annoyed at myself for taking so long to pick it up.
For anyone who enjoys a fantastically written romance, please pick this up; it's amazing.

4.5 stars.

It was cute and fun and sweet. I quite enjoyed it. I love me a gruff antisocial hero that has hidden depths which are somehow expressed by a certain look in his eyes 👀 😂
It’s probably not a book that I could read multiple times now that I know the storyline, which is why I’m going with 4 stars instead of 5.
Still a fun, lovely read. I will definitely keep an eye out for more from this author.

Light and Fluffy

Reviewed in Australia on 2 May 2022

I enjoyed this a lot!
This was my reintroduction to contemporary romance, and reading in general, after a while and it was a great beginning. Very light and fluffy (fluffy here being used to describe the feeling when you're reading and something happens and your heart lifts, your whole body feels afloat and you can't stop a real dumb grin spreading across your face as you are taken over by a second-hand giddiness for how damn adorable these guys are).
It's not perfect, the set up is a touch ridiculous but with some suspension of disbelief and absorption in the story it's a good time

This was really cute! I thoroughly enjoyed this read. While the plot wasn’t life changing it was really well written and had a few of my favourite tropes. I could relate to the main character and Dr Adam was definitely more swoony the more you got to know him.

This book was so good I did a little dance when it finished I was so excited. Olive was such a fun character from the first page, I was immediately pulled in and then we met Adam and I couldn’t put it down. I read it all in one sitting just needing to know how it ended and was so happy!

Witty academic romance

I loved the characters, the humour, the sympathy of the story. It felt like real people struggling and triumphing together. Growing. Really nice and looking forward to future books from Ali Hazelwood.

BEWARE: PRINTED STICKER ON THE FRONT!

Reviewed in the United Kingdom on 21 October 2021

The book itself is great but be aware they've dubbed it 'The Tiktok sensation' and printed it on the cover. You can't remove it. What an eyesore.

Se eu pudesse apagar minha memória das últimas 24h eu iria, só pra poder ler esse livro de novo. A Ali entregou TUDO nessa comédia romântica maravilhosa que você sai apaixonada por todos os personagens. Se você é uma acadêmica, como eu, tem ainda mais probabilidade de você também amá lo

I’m obsessed.

Reviewed in Brazil on 16 September 2021

Did I just pay 50 bucks in my country’s currency for the kindle version of this book? Yes. Was it worth it? Absolutely.
This may just be my new favorite book, maybe ever. Plot? Perfect. Characters? Perfect.
The only bad thing about this book is just that it really reinforced my idea that I’ll die alone, because Dr. Adam Carlsen simply does not exist and now he is my standard for men. And Olive has my whole heart. Absolutely adorable. And the side characters too. I just wish they were real so I could be friends with them.
Anyway, this is perfection in book form and if you are wondering if you should read it, do yourself a favor and go do so immediately. Seriously. You won’t regret it.

Honestamente? Esse livro me chamou atenção quando eu soube que foi originado de uma fanfic reylo. E que surpresa foi achar uma história tão gostosa de ler, sério. Não é uma história complicada nem nada, é até boa pra se ler em um dia em que você só quer descansar sabe? mas aquece o coração do modo que só uma fanfic bem escrita aquece. Não se deixe enganar pela repetição da palavra fanfic, esse livro tem um escrita fácil e leve mas ainda sim coerente! Parece mesmo que você tá vendo uma comédia romântica. Sério Adam e Olive são meu novo casal conforto!

5 stars! One of my top 3 romances this year

Reviewed in India on 15 September 2021

The Love Hypothesis by Ali Hazelwood is one of the sweetest and funniest romances I have read this year! Scratch that. It is one of the top 3 romances I've read this year.
Ph.D student Olive Smith kisses the 1st person she finds in the hallway in order to convince her best friend Anh that she was dating. The person happens to be Dr. Adam Carlsen, Professor in her Department, the source of tears of many students. Later he helps her solidify this lie and thus begins their journey of 'fake-dating'.
I'll admit I am not that into Professor-Student relationships but the premise here was plausible and palatable to me because A) Olive wasn't technically Adam's student and B) Their age gap wasn't outrageous.
Nonetheless, I loved how Ali tackled this issue early on. From clearing the issue with the Dean to Olive's peers accusing her irrationally for Dr. Adam's harsh feedbacks on proposals, she dealt all sorts of problems in a realistic manner. The pressure of pursuing academia, feeling insecure, underconfident and simply not good enough is something I feel quite often. I related with Olive on an emotional and professional level.
I love how their fake-dating wasn't too cliché with them still retaining their initial perspectives about each other but slowly their layers peeled away bit by bit and they let themselves show their true vulnerable selves with each coffee date, each activity they did forced by Olive's friends.
Olive is a sunshine-y character but in an awkward, over-imaginative rambling sort of way and Adam is no doubt a grump with a deadpan and dry sense of humour and I loved all their banter. I loved how slowly Olive felt safe with him. How he helped her, protected her without ever interfering in her work. Even in the physical aspect, his care and worry over her consent was the sweetest thing ever.
And consent is hot. 🔥😍
Their friends, Anh, Malcolm and Holden were hilarious and I loved them all.
Also, I can't stop praising how hilarious the book it. There were too many laugh-out-loud moments. I was chucking a lot and I had a stupid goofy grin the entire time I read this book. My jaws are hurting from all the smiling and my cheeks are warm from flushing! 😍
I can't wait to read more of Ali's works.
Lastly, where do I get Dr. Adam Carlsen for myself?
