| In this retelling of "The Princess and the Pea" as a romance novel, the character of Quin starts out with some unusual characteristics for the love interest in that genre. He is a "mama's boy" and a "math nerd".
Presumably, before winning the affections of the heroine, he must break free of his mother's control. Having not read the book myself, I don't know whether his interests in math are also portrayed as a negative trait that must be overcome. If you have read this book and can comment on the portrayal of mathematics in it, please write to let me know! |

Exciting News: The 1,600th entry was recently added to this database of mathematical fiction! Also, for those of you interested in non-fictional math books
let me (shamelessly) plug the recent release of the second edition of my soliton theory textbook.
