What is Love By Jen Comfort – A Review

---

Wow, this rom-com is so fun to read. I initially picked up this book as an Amazon First because I liked the cover, and I wish I read it sooner! Oxford-educated and Princeton professor Teddy Ferguson is on a winning streak on Answers!, a trivia-style show, when Maxine Hart, self-proclaimed ADHD advocate and high school dropout, knocks him off his streak and leaves him obsessing about his loss and her lips. When there is a tournament of former winners, Maxine turns to Teddy to help her master her weaker academic topics. Teddy could use some tutoring, mostly learning not to take himself so seriously! The chemistry and banter between these two 30-somethings is fresh and funny, and the spice is on fire!  Just what I needed to get me out of my reading rut!

While light-hearted and fun, What is Love also touched on some deep topics. Through the comparison of Teddy and Maxine’s educations, Comfort makes the point that advanced degrees do not make you better or wiser than those without. I also profoundly identified with her descriptions of an ADHD brain, especially the struggles in elementary and middle school! Finally, I relished all the trivia throughout the book. The facts are fun, and I think both Maxine and I got rivers down flat! 

I had so much fun I made a pinterest board

Overall this was a flirty, fast-paced read that any (adult) scholar or anti-scholar would enjoy!
