The Love-Brain Compendium: Who's Controlling Your Dopamine?

I used four real people to conduct an experiment in romance.

Su Ran was in charge of demonstrating every trick in the heartbreaker’s playbook. Lin Yue was in charge of dissecting the psychological motives behind every scheme.

Xu Yang and Li Yao were the experiment’s “subjects”: one experienced the full journey from being hopelessly smitten to completely turned off, while the other personally demonstrated how “delusions of grandeur” are manufactured and then shattered.

This isn’t a novel. It’s a clear-eyed guide to seeing every emotional bug for what it is.

Reader advisory: This book may be intensely satisfying and could cure your lovestruck brain in bulk.
