Read the book before the movie

Love is in the air or should I say the science lab; women in STEM, yes please!

'The love Hypothesis' story by Ali Hazelwood is coming to life in September

This book is smart, funny, and oh so swoon worthy and it was truly one of those books that reminded me why I love reading. I fell in love with both Olive and Adam so quickly, but I also found this to be one of the most believable fake dating romances, too. From the very first page, I was absolutely hooked and only felt more and more endeared throughout. 2 copies are available and also other titles for Ali.

More books to movies or tv shows you might have missed...

Your library has copies of all these books, I definitely recommend reading them before watching.

One of the most popular authors.....

American author Jennifer Lynn Barnes is hugely popular after her hit series The Inheritance Games was released in 2020. I originally discovered her with the release of her Debutantes duology in 2018 - crafty, scandalous, big dresses, bigger egos; this book is a great introduction to the author who is now a No. 1 New York Times bestselling author of young adult novels.

With her new series coming out the big question is should I read The Inheritance Games first?

Yes, you should definitely read The Inheritance Game before The Grandest Game, as it is the first book in the core series that establishes the entire universe, characters, and backstory!

Also you're meant to read The Brothers Hawthorne before the next series (The Grandest Game) Confused? check out her reading order I found on Instagram @authorjenlynnbarnes or better still come and ask me!

Then to really show your 'superfan' powers, dive into The Same Backward as Forward: A hate love story basically a tragic love story and prequel to The Inheritance Games series. Full of danger, mystery and truly epic romance . . available now on our eBook platform!
