One week.
Home alone.
Girl genius.
Unrepentant slacker.
Big lie.
What’s the worst that could happen?
Mona is a smart girl and figured everything out a long time ago. She had to. She didn’t have a choice. When your parents are uber-celebrities and you graduate from high school at 15, finish college at 18, and start your PhD program at 19, you don’t have time for distractions outside of your foci. Even fun is scheduled. Which is why Abram, her brother’s best friend, is such an irritant.
Abram is a talented guy, a supremely gifted musician, and has absolutely nothing figured out, nor does he seem to care. He does what he feels, when he feels, and—in Mona’s opinion—he makes her feel entirely too much.
This is the bundled version of the Laws of Physics trilogy and includes parts one through three (Motion, Space, and Time).

It started out fine, I thought the first part of the trilogy (Motion?) was quite sweet. But after that the story just became unnecessarily long-winded and, quite frankly, boring. The whole story could very easily have been told in only one book.
Also I am kind of over the super awkward and socially cluless smart girl trope. Mona as a charakter wasn't very convincing and felt inconsistent to me. It made it hard to connect with her as a charakter.
What really bothered me, however, was Leo. The whole "overprotective brother" thing, thats really just a cover for being a misogynistic a**hole and annoyed me to no end. But what was especially problematic was his claim of ownership ("She is my sister! MINE!") over Mona and threatening Abram as if Mona (1) is a thing to be owned that (2) someone else needs HIS permission to "use". That's patriarchal thinking at its finest. The idea that women are owed by men (fathers, brothers, husband,...) is the root core of violence against women. That this behavior is then by the author not rebuked but explained away with "oh, but he means well" and "he is such a nice guy, really" just adds insult to injury. That was the moment I could no longer continue reading this book. Romanticizing misogyny is a hard no-go for me. By, Penny Reid, forever.
Boring and misogynistic BS
