Love Theoretically

De: Ali Hazelwood

Narrado por: Therese Plummer

From the author of TikTok sensations and global bestsellers The Love Hypothesis and Love on the Brain.

Rival physicists collide in a vortex of academic feuds and fake dating shenanigans in this delightfully STEMinist romcom.

The many lives of theoretical physicist Elsie Hannaway have finally caught up with her. By day, she's an adjunct professor, toiling away at grading labs and teaching thermodynamics in the hopes of landing tenure. By other day, Elsie makes up for her non-existent paycheck by offering her services as a fake girlfriend, tapping into her expertly honed people-pleasing skills to embody whichever version of herself the client needs.

Honestly, it's a pretty sweet gig - until her carefully constructed Elsie-verse comes crashing down. Because Jack Smith, the annoyingly attractive and arrogant older brother of her favourite client, turns out to be the cold-hearted experimental physicist who ruined her mentor's career and undermined the reputation of theorists everywhere. And he's the same Jack Smith who rules over the physics department at MIT, standing right between Elsie and her dream job.

Elsie is prepared for an all-out war of scholarly sabotage but...those long, penetrating looks? Not having to be anything other than her true self when she's with him? Will falling into an experimentalist's orbit finally tempt her to put her most guarded theories on love into practice?

Reseñas de la Crítica

"Ali Hazelwood proves that science is sexy as hell, and that love can 'STEM' from the most unlikely places. She's my newest must-buy author." (Jodi Picoult)

More than just a fake dating plot…

The author has done the fake dating plot before this was very different and creative. I enjoyed this book, but I still think Olives and Aaron’s love story is my favourite. The book brought up very modern ideas on what love is and how you get there, and also a Family perspective of societal expectations. It also brings up how women are treated within a scientific discipline. How people can see one thing, be told other things and not believe them. This book has a lot to do with trust and trusting. This was a good listen.

Magnífico

Lo que más me gusta de los libros de Ali es hacer ver problemáticas que las mujeres enfrentamos todos los días y más desde el campo científico, le da un espacio a todas las mujeres que desafortunadamente han tenido que vivir algo parecido.

Es muy gratificante ver dos personajes que se apoyan entre sí para encontrar la mejor versión de ellos mismos y que no necesariamente tiene que ser perfecta.

Es realmente un libro que habla de muchos temas importantes y sí el romance es lo principal, pero no hay que dejar de darle importancia a los demás temas que abarca.
