Overview & Summary

Recently dumped by yet another girlfriend named Katherine -- his nineteenth, to be exact -- former child prodigy Colin Singleton sets out on a road trip with his best friend to try to develop a mathematical theorem that can predict the course of any relationship. Along the way, in a small Tennessee town, Colin discovers there might be more to life than being a genius or being dumped. John Green's novel blends comedy, romance, and math-nerd charm.
