Ich dachte nach The Love Hypothesis brauche ich noch mehr englische Rom-Com Bücher und oh ja! Ich habe dieses Buch spätestens nach den ersten 50 Seiten inhaliert. Ich liebe einfach alles an dem Buch. Enemies to Lovers und Office Romance sind meine Schwächen! Und diese Wortgefechte zwischen Lucy und Joshua waren einfach herrlich. Umso gespannter bin ich jetzt auf den Film, auch wenn der wahrscheinlich eh nicht mit dem Buch mithalten kann.

😭😭😭😭 yes friends! those are real tears! wanna know why? because i realized my taste in romance doesn't match gabby, kat and noelle's! <b>i do not understand the hype over this one!</b> let's see, a hate to love romance. which is honestly so cliché but i usually enjoy books with this trope. but you see, the problem is it's not even <i>that</i>. and to be honest, i don't even know what it is! lucy and josh are two fully grown adults, working in this publishing house but god forbids if they act like adults for two goddamn seconds! they "hate" each other but not in a manner that makes sense. if you were to read children stories about two five year-olds who're just being absurd with each other this kinda behavior would make sense and i think that tells <i>a lot</i> and that's all you need to know to understand how ridiculous it was. her password was IHATEJOSHUA4EV@ <img src="https://i.gifer.com/HX0M.gif"description"/> i mean how old are you? seven? grow the fuck up jesus 😑🤦🏻‍♀️ huge disappointment and it's sad because i expected to love this one and if you enjoyed it, then i'm genuinely happy for you because i just couldn't :)
