You can tell that Ali Hazelwood knows what she is talking about and her characters work and behave like scientists. Overall, I really enjoyed this book and like most books with STEMM characters, it made my nerd heart happy. I would have liked to see some of the book from his view to fully understand his internal battles. As Levi opens up to Bee, we see that he too has overcome a lot. At first there does not seem to be many redeeming qualities about Levi besides his brain power, until Bee is forced to change her perspective. My biggest struggle with the book is that we only get Bee’s point of view so we see Levi through her perspective.
However, she has not completely discovered how to move forward. Not only is a Bee a great scientist, she has overcome adversity in her personal life as well. And the terms her RA and her have for being women in a male dominated environment are very true. I love her personality and hair and clothing choices, she is not afraid to be herself. I absolutely love women in STEMM and related so much to Bee. So, they need to be able to put the past aside and find a way to work together.īee is such a well defined and complex character. BLINK is a combined project of the NHI and NASA and special to both Bee and Levi for different reasons. Her co-leader is Levi Ward, the guy that acted like she had the plague in grad school. When the perfect opportunity presents itself, she is ecstatic until she learns she must co-lead the project.
And the possibilities have all her neurons firing.Bee Königswasser is ready for things to go in her favor for once. Perhaps it’s her occipital cortex playing tricks on her, but Bee could swear she can see Levi softening into an ally, backing her plays, seconding her ideas…devouring her with those eyes. Now, her equipment is missing, the staff is ignoring her, and Bee finds her floundering career in somewhat of a pickle. But Levi made his feelings toward Bee very clear in grad school-archenemies work best employed in their own galaxies far, far away.
And sure, he caught her in his powerfully corded arms like a romance novel hero when she accidentally damseled in distress on her first day in the lab. Sure, Levi is attractive in a tall, dark, and piercing-eyes kind of way. But the mother of modern physics never had to co-lead with Levi Ward. Like an avenging, purple-haired Jedi bringing balance to the mansplained universe, Bee Königswasser lives by a simple code: What would Marie Curie do? If NASA offered her the lead on a neuroengineering project-a literal dream come true after years scraping by on the crumbs of academia-Marie would accept without hesitation.
