Summary of An Abundance of Katherines Novel
An Abundance of Katherines follows Colin Singleton after another breakup with a Katherine, turning heartbreak into a road trip full of formulas, jokes, and self-revision.
John Green uses Colin's obsession with prediction to explore what cannot be graphed: friendship, humiliation, first freedom, and the surprise of being ordinary in a useful way.
The novel is funny and tender because it lets cleverness fail kindly. Its real subject is learning that a person can matter without proving a grand theorem about love.
