So this is the latest book in Meg Benjamin's Konigsburg series. Only a few scenes are set in Konigsburg itself, and only a handful of characters show up, but it's still nice to visit with some old friends, and to speculate on whether any of the new characters will stick around and make appearances in future books.
Also, not to brag, but I did this cover. I created it before I read the book, and I liked it a lot. But now having read the book, I have to say that I think it REALLy catches the mood of the story. So yay, me! lol And obviously, yay, Meg, too!
The Love Equation
Meg Benjamin
They’re both unlucky in love. Can they find the equation for the perfect mate?
Celine Murphy has had it. Her current boyfriend has broken up with her by text. That makes three boyfriends who’ve turned out to be losers, including one who left for Antarctica. She’s decided to go for an online matchmaking service, but as a mathematician, she wants to minimize her own faulty choices and let an algorithm make the selection.
At the same time, musician Delaney Boone has come to Austin to mentor “the kid,” a popular actor turned musician. He’s also escaping a broken heart from a failed relationship, and he’s hoping Austin will provide some new possibilities. With those new possibilities in mind, he goes for an online dating service.
Fate—or math—matches these two unlikely lovers. But can they overcome their own doubts to accept another chance at romance? Maybe with the help of an unlikely cupid in the form of Celine’s grandfather, The Judge, and the matchmaking skills of some familiar faces in Konigsburg. And an unexpected dose of cedar fever. It’s Texas y’all.
