Colin is on a mission to prove The Theorem of Underlying Katherine Predictability, which he hopes will predict the future of any relationship, avenge Dumpees everywhere, and finally win him the girl. On a road trip miles from home, this anagram-happy, washedup child prodigy has ten thousand dollars in his pocket, a bloodthirsty feral hog on his trail, and an overweight, Judge Judy-loving best friend riding shotgun–but no Katherines. And when it comes to girls named Katherine, Colin is always getting dumped. When it comes to relationships, Colin Singleton's type is girls named Katherine.

Five Challenge: Great author moments (also late).But is it as great as I was expecting? Hmm, not sure. When novelists are so fantastic I think it's hard for their second and third novels to live up to expectations. Hmm. Is it a good book? Yes, definitely, compared to a lot of the novels in the vast expanse of YA lit. In not narrating the whole story, it made his dialogue and his thoughts seem even more.original, I guess you could put it. And I think that's what actually set Colin apart from Q and Miles. The writing style is, strangely, told in the third person, which was a nice change. Nay, I thought she was actually pretty awesome, and if there's any romantic material in a novel I like it to be sort of like her Clever. And for all his three dimensions, he seemed almost overly dependent on having a Katherine constantly at his side- though Lindsey Lee Wells was a welcome surprise, she was still amorous material. And his incessant whining did get on my nerves considerably a little at the start. He wasn't quite as humorous as Q and he didn't have so much to learn, I suppose, as Miles. Become cultured and exciting and intriguing and have people look up to you (or else just think that you're slightly bizarre).Ĭolin was a nice enough protagonist. Read John Green books and you'll become one of those interesting intellectuals who can surprise their friends with things that none of them know. Despite all that, like Looking for Alaska and Paper Towns, An Abundance of Katherines is full of small, quirky facts that you wouldn't have known otherwise.
