So Colin Singleton is a prodigy not a genius. Difference:
Prodigy learns very quickly what other people have already figured out.
Geniuses discover that which no one elsa have discovered.
He doesn't matter. He has dated 19 girls, he has a very specific type, not a body or ratial or anythiung like that. He dates K-A-T-H-E-R-I-N-E-S.
He is a high school graduate. He just went to the celebration and his girlfriend, Katherine breaks up with him that day. He is devastated.
Colin's one and only friend Hassan. He is a slightly more religius man than Colin. He is Islamic and always tried to convert Colin adn remind him he needs more God in his life and choices.
They go on a road trip for the summer to get over Katherine.
It is a simple, YA contemporary. Nohing much happens other than Collin get the crazy idea that he can make a mathemtical equation of love and KAtherines are the key for that. They end up meeting a girl on a little town in the middle of nowhere and I guess their adventrues start there. Learning about socializing be it as friends, couples, family it all entails its own amount of drama.
It is a light contemporary nice for a break of other heavier reads. I enjoy it. I gave it a 3 out of 5 stars. I mean I like John Green books but they do not capture me as they did when I was a teenager. But it is a good book to have to lend to my niece, for example, as soon as I can make her start reading in English that is.
