Love and Other Unknown Variables

Charlie Hanson has a clear vision of his future. A senior at Brighton School of Mathematics and Science, he knows he’ll graduate, go to MIT, and inevitably discover solutions to the universe’s greatest unanswered questions. He’s that smart. But Charlie’s future blurs the moment he reaches out to touch the tattoo on a beautiful girl’s neck.

The future has never seemed very kind to Charlotte Finch, so she’s counting on the present. She’s not impressed by the strange boy at the donut shop—until she learns he’s a student at Brighton where her sister has just taken a job as the English teacher. With her encouragement, Charlie orchestrates the most effective prank campaign in Brighton history. But, in doing so, he puts his own future in jeopardy.

By the time he learns she's ill—and that the pranks were a way to distract Ms. Finch from Charlotte’s illness—Charlotte’s gravitational pull is too great to overcome. Soon he must choose between the familiar formulas he’s always relied on or the girl he’s falling for (at far more than 32 feet per second squared).



Review:

This book is really an amazing roller-coaster, by the name and cover you might think that this book is all love and happy thoughts, and for the most part  it is, Charlie and Charlotte are like all those couples that are meant to be together even though they don't have much in common.

It made me cry in ways that I had not cried with books, if you are a fan of The Fault in Our Stars then Shannon Lee Alexander's Love and Other Unknown Variables is the book for you.
And even if you didn't like John Green's hit, this is a book you need to read.

It has the cocky character, the beautiful girl, the difficult relationship, but is so much more, it has the it factor, it has that thing that doesn't let you put the book done until is done.

There is not too much romance, meaning there are no cheesy lines or just the wrong kind of love language, it is very much like a normal REAL teen boy and girl falling in love without so much as too sweet love lines and love declarations, it is real and relatable.

I would really recommend you to read Love and Other Unknown Variables it has a 5 our of 5 stars on my book.
