The Love Hypothesis

CriticsCritics: 66
AudienceAudience: 7.0

A biology PhD candidate who has little interest in romance starts a fake relationship with a famously intimidating professor after an impulsive kiss. As they navigate academic pressures and personal challenges, their carefully managed arrangement begins to complicate their ideas about love.

My take

You may enjoy this if you like light, chemistry-driven campus romances such as Set It Up; Not for you if you want a faithful book adaptation or a slow, deeply developed love story.
