MATH!
I loved this. Adored it! I read this in one sitting. The mathematics that was mentioned in this book was simple enough that my dumbass self can understand. I was genuinely excited to find out the answer to the math equations. (Like how you can find the sum of numbers 1-10 more quickly. When the answer was revealed, I suddenly remembered that I learned that in math class; it just completely skipped over my brain.) It was also nice to find out the actual terms of mathematics. I knew 41 and 43 were prime numbers, however, I didn't know that they were called "twin primes."
I can understand why people wouldn't like this book though. For non-math lovers, this may seem boring. And I agree with that statement. There was virtually no actual plot, and sometimes it seemed more like a math textbook than a novel. Additionally, the mathematics in this book could seem too basic for seasoned math lovers. It didn't go into detail for more complex math subjects, such as topology and of the sort. I think that's why this book was almost perfect for me. I do love math, however, mathematics is not something I would consider to be my passion in life. It's suitable for people in the middle like myself. And finally, near the end, it got a bit redundant and monotonous to read. Don't worry though, by the time it does feel that way, the novel ends soooo 🤷.
Would I re-read this? Maybe. I don't usually re-read books unless it's a murder mystery or graphic novel, but I would make an exception for this book. Would I recommend this? Definitely. It's a short enough book so if you do dislike it, at least it's short. 👍

Centers around memory loss (chronic anterograde amnesia) as a result of a traumatic brain injury, although the character experiencing this is not the perspective character. Car crash described in semi-graphic detail once or twice. One description of a dead, decaying animal.internationalreads's review against another edition
