An Abundance of Katherines by John Green

Former child prodigy Colin Singleton has been dumped by nineteen girls, all of them named Katherine. After Katherine XIX left him aching in misery on his bedroom floor, his carefree friend, Hassan Harbish, put the only logical plan he could think of into action: road trip. From Indianapolis, Indiana to Gutshot, Tennessee in an air-condition-less car known as “Satan’s Hearse,” Colin decides his last hope to really matter is to finish his theorem. The Theorem of Underlying Katherine Predictability that will allow him to mathematically predict the outcome of any potential relationship. With the help of a motherly but powerful woman, Hollis, and her intriguing daughter, Lindsey, maybe Colin really will make some discoveries about the future. This was another excellent book from John Green with honest and relatable characters and an unpredictable series of events. I think anyone who enjoys any kind of realistic fiction books will like An Abundance of Katherines as much as I did.
