It's a bonafide way to de-stress. This ticks off all of those boxes, but unfortunately it doesn't do it in a very original way. I found this book just alright. It heavily borrowed from 80's 'nerd turns popular' movies and was so formulaic (no pun intended) that nothing really surprised me or held my attention. The characters were meh, plot was meh...overall...meh. A solid right down the middle 2.5. no reviews | add a review

This book is a delightful 2000s inspired rom-com-esque read that brought back all the nostalgia for me. It's fun, silly, comedic, packs the drama, and has a hint of romance. What do you do when some new manic pixie dream girl steals your man? Revenge! And if you're a nerd? With math! This book brings friendship, romance, and high school drama into one epic story. I definitely recommend!
Also, for.a 2016 book this is SUPER diverse and brings up the problems with stereotypes.
Four out of five stars! ( )
