I really enjoyed the escapism and the positive message it presents. This books oozes the soul of romance in all its incarnations. As much as Hadley hates on so many things, they still come across as splendid notions towards love. In its beautiful effortless narrative, and in its outlook.

‘ The Statistical Probability of Love at First Sight’ is poetic. This book was like a romantic what if… I’d like a happy ending too. I related to Hadley and her story – I too am a child of divorce and estranged to my father. With so many contemporary love interests being bookish, gangly and geeky, Mr Perfect, or Mr Hot – it was great to come across one whose main trait was that of manners and humility.

Letting the pain and contempt fester inside. At times Hadley annoyed me, her blatant disregard to view things objectively, content to march on blinkered. It feels like an adventure – of places and of the heart.

Not only does our protagonist, Hadley step into the waters of first love, she also takes a first pace into independence and rebellion… finding out who she is.Īlthough short and not all that complex, ‘ The Statistical Probability of Love at First Sight’ poses many questions. Can fate bring them together again?Ī simple fun read, ‘ The Statistical Probability of Love at First Sight’ was a great afternoon escape. A long night on the plane passes in a blink, but the two lose track in arrival chaos.
