![]() ![]() I found myself thinking of one of my favorite quotes while reading this book, "enjoy the little things in life, for one day, you'll look back and realize they were the big things." At the start of the book, he was living in a state of depression, after breaking of with Katherine XIX and not mattering, but eventually, he learns that life isn't about the big things, but the little things that make life worth living. Being a fan of John Green, I recognized his style of writing, and enjoyed this story of self-discovery. Colin falls in love with Lindsey, someone not named Katherine, and while in Tennessee on this trip, he comes to the conclusion that he may not need to "matter," and have this "eureka moment," in order to be something to someone. He believes he has found an equation of sorts that explains his past relationships with all girls named Katherine, but there are some things science cannot answer, and love is one of them. A road trip with his best friend results in a lot of self reflection. Being a "child prodigy," Colin, the main character in John Green's An Abundance of Katherines, spent a majority of his young adult life in search of his " eureka moment." He believed that unless he had this epiphany-type moment, he would be a meaningless and worthless adult. ![]()
