Great story for fans of the enemies to lovers trope, and it's done very well here. Nice opposites attract energy. I liked Teddy and Maxine together, and I loved how each of them complemented the other and both grew personally from their relationship. The author has a great comedic voice, and a snarky under-dog fmc is my favorite. (Next to a hot nerd, that is, which this book also has in spades!) But both characters were such fun in their own unique ways. For most of the book I just want to give Maxine a hug and tell her to take a chance on Teddy, and tell Teddy to lighten up and be honest with Maxine. The storyline events keep you guessing until the end, which was a delight. New-to-me author, I'll definitely be reading more of her books! aucune critique | ajouter une critique
What is love? Answer: From the Latin word for crossroads, this is knowledge so common as to be obscure, the pursuit of which engages millions daily. Question: What is trivia? Trivia is the magic in the mundane, the connection in the commonplace, and Maxine Hart's second-favorite pastime. A self-proclaimed Brooklyn street rat and a high school dropout, Maxine has never been a fan of formal education, but thanks to her ADHD "superpowers," she's a glutton for knowledge--and a good fight. And when Maxine enters the trivia game show Answers!, her brilliance, coupled with her penchant for big bets, devastates her competition. Even record-holding, 76-time-winner Teddy Ferguson. Or was it their kiss the night before they faced off that threw the buttoned-up professor off his game? Now, Maxine and Teddy cross paths again in a high-stakes tournament against all-time Answers! winners, including undefeated champion Hercules McKnight. With nothing in common but an insatiable appetite for knowledge and a desire to win, Maxine offers Teddy a deal: combine their strengths to shore up their weaknesses. She'll push his tolerance for risk and improve his buzzer speed, if he'll find creative ways to fill in the gaps in her education. Except neither one of them foresaw just how scintillating learning could be... Aucune description trouvée dans une bibliothèque |

This has made many readers happy but for me it wasn’t a good match. The book description and cover drew me in but as I started to read the first chapter, I found myself being pushed away from rather than drawn to the characters. Teddy seemed anxious and a bit of a stuffed shirt and Maxine seemed nasty, mean, and perhaps a bit of a tease. I read a few more chapters and did not become engaged so read the end and found a happy ending was in store for them but wondered how they got there so read a few chapters in the middle before giving up entirely. I wish the couple a happily ever after and the author success. Thank you to NetGalley and Montlake for the ARC. This is my honest review. (2-3 Stars) ( )
