Really liked learning about Dyscalculia.
The art was solid, but the worldbuilding was a bit odd--you'd think the book would be a straightforward "girl works hard in math class" thing but it was overly complicated...there was even an AI robot that could make pizza? A bit far-fetched.
I also felt bad for the lady the protagonist kept calling EVERY day. This woman worked at a politician's office and for some reason the protagonist used this phone call as a way to talk about her teen drama all day. Seemed like a waste of time and the protagonist needs a therapist more than anything!
The core of the story was good and the character development was good.

I liked the concept. I think perfectionism and hiding struggles is relatable. However, the robot was random. Also, a lot of the school scenarios didn’t feel realistic to me.
It's funny that I read this back-to-back with Mixed-Up, which deals with dyslexia, while this deals with dyscalculia. I did like Mixed-Up more and felt like so many of the characters here were just incredibly shitty to each other over and over again. The way they act is addressed, but it just wasn't for me.
