Review: 🌟🌟🌟🌟🌟 

A cute elfish romance following two individuals that couldn't be more different than oil and water.

Lilliana is a perfectionist. She rewrites her papers multiple times to make sure that her handwriting is always legible. She always does assignments day in advance so she can turn in her absolute best. She avoids group projects like the plague. That is, until she is forced to do a project with the grades notorious flirt, Strailer. But when she starts spending time with him, she realizes that there is much more to him then that meets the eye. Just as her feelings for him are beginning to grow, she receives a vision that pushes her away from him. When a mysterious stranger comes to town, Lilliana and Strailer's relationship only becomes more tense. Will Lilliana find the strength to follow her heart's desires, or will she force herself to give up on Strailer to maintain her image of perfection?

"Love and Lab Extractions" is the prequel to the "Valley Glen Elves" series and let me just say I am hooked! I love Su's writing style, the world they have created, and the romance was phenomenal! I received this book for free after signing up for her newsletter, but I am most definitely going to check out the other books as they release.

I really relate to Lilliana as a person, so it was easy for me to like her from the get-go. I to am a toxic overachiever that always strives to do my best, does way too much work during group projects, and finishes my tasks days in advance. And when Strailer entered the scene? I knew I was going to love this book! Strailer was such a good book boyfriend. Yes, he's quite flirty, but he's also caring, compassionate, and quite hilarious. It made me so mad that Lilliana resisted her feelings for him, but the build up and the tension was so good that I'll forgive her.

I love how every elf has unique powers that are limited to each individual. Lilliana gets visions of the future and Strailer can move things with his mind. The fact that everyone had different abilities keeps it fresh and I found that I never knew what 

powers they would possess. I could see this being a major part of the main series.

Overall, I just found "Love and Lab Extractions" to be so darn enjoyable! The romance is top tier, the worldbuilding is amazing, and I didn't dislike any of the characters (minus the one creepo, but that's to be expected). I can't wait to get more of this series and will totally recommend this book to people who can't get enough fantasy romances!
