Love on the Brain

Bookseller recommendation

“Modern STEM Pride and Prejudice without even trying. I genuinely enjoyed this read for the quirkiness and general character interactions (Levi Ward puts Darcy to shame!)....Nevertheless, I enjoyed it so much I listened to the entire book in one day!”

“It’s a hilarious rom-com with miscommunication and a subtle mystery! While I was yelling at Bee for not seeing what we all know is love, Ms. Hazelwood ran a fun, subtle whodunnit throughout the story with an ending I didn’t see coming! The spice was just the right level of heat among the humor. All the characters felt like friends I could hang out with so while this was my first Hazelwood book, it’s absolutely not my last, I immediately downloaded all the other ones I could.”

“I am absolutely loving Ali Hazelwood's 'stem' novels, and I think this one is my favorite. Not only does it take place in one of my favorite environments (NASA!!!!!) but the romance in this was so, so good.….and the smut of course. But all of that aside, this was super cute and definitely a must read if you enjoyed The Love Hypothesis.”

“What a delightful book! The science and the romance are paired perfectly with the spunky and lovable characters in the tense and competitive STEM environment of NASA. At first, I thought Levi was a jerk (like Bee), but I loved the guy as the story progressed. This is a great book - I loved the characters and the story's development. This was the perfect book to pull me out of a reading slump! I listened to the audiobook on Libro.fm - the narrator did a great job of reading the book. ”

“Ali Hazelwood has done it again! This is NOT a novel that you can read a few pages here, a few pages there — it demands one sitting. With expert pacing, witty humor, and loveable characters, Love on the Brain is this fall’s hot romantic comedy!”

— Stefanie Lynn • The Kennett Bookhouse

“Ali Hazelwood, aka Master of Misunderstandings has knocked it out of the park with this one. Deliciously frustrating with it's build-up, however fantastically satisfying in its conclusion. Characters talking past each other and having two different conversations at once? Check. A beautifully, consistently misconstrued man who's been in love since Day 1? Check. And a reader who spends the whole book yelling at the ostensibly brilliant, literal rocket scientist/engineer people to stop being stupid and kiss already? Double check! There's also an intriguing plot, and a wonderful understanding of the research and engineering world (which we know from Love Hypothesis, Hazelwood is no stranger to). Also a fun side couple that I hope returns in another book! And an extensive discussion of feline anal glands, that in a testament to Levi and Bee's chemistry (lol) does nothing to dampen the steaminess of the book. Like, seriously, holy hell this is not a PG-13, fade to black situation at all, and thank God and Ali Hazelwood for that. And an absolutely adorable cover to boot!”
