19 Katherine's and One Lindsey

Lindsey is confused because she is not feeling sad about the breakup with TOC and she is just accepting it. Hassan, Colin and Lindsey went to Memphis to discover the reason why Hollis has been being so weird lately and going out a lot and they found out that the factory is in bankrupt but Hollis doesn't want to fire any of the people that work at the factory so she is selling land to sustain all the jobs which is very nice of her. Lindsey had mixed feeling she was happy because her mom was doing something amazing for people of Gutshot  but she was like feeling down because she was confuse with her emotions so then she went to her secret place. She lied to Hollis telling her she was going to sleep in a friends house but Colin knew were she was so he went to the secret place and they talked about how she didn't missed TOC at all and then he told her the full Katherine timeline and he felt relief after. Then they ended up together and it was amazing. Also Hassan applied for college so Colin was proud of him. The theorem was complete so Colin tried to see how his relationship with Lindsey could turn out and it said she would dump him in the 4th day of their relationship which turn out to not be true and Colin was happy because they were still together but sad because something was wrong with the formula. He had his second eureka moment by concluding by saying that the formula was not gonna be always right because future is unpredictable.



WHEN I FINISHED THE BOOK.

     "That's why those tapes we made are going toe so great one day, because they'll stories that time has swallowed up or distorted or whatever" (Green,202)

     The quote was about the tapes they record when they do jobs for Hollis, the tapes are about the people that live in Gutshot and they ended talking about this because Colin said that it doesn't matter because everyone will die and forget you and even people like Einstein will be forgotten and that time swallows every person every achievement but the last thing that will desapear are memories.

"And the moral of the story is that you don't remember what happened. What you remember becomes what happened." (Green,208)

    When Colin finished his Katherine timeline he ended it with this statement which seems very interesting to me because it makes you really think a lot back of small things that maybe didn't actually really happened the way you remember but what you remember became what happened for you, I know it might be a little confusing but if you really think about it deeply it makes lots of sense.

      I finished the book and i did like like it is not one of my top 5 favourite but it was good. I really liked the last part of the book in which the author explains every part of the formula which was interesting because it is presented in notes and you feel like you are reading Colin's notes and it was a nice touch. The book ended good because i wanted Lindsey and Colin together but I was sad that the Hassan and Katrina thing didn't work out. I would recommend the book to people that really like math. One of my favourite thing about the whole book was at the end when he tells the hole Katherine timeline because he only talked about 3 Katherine's on the hole book and the other 16 weren't mention and they were just a number but when he talked about all of them we put a face to the number so it was amazing. Even though this book wasn't one of my favourites i still love John Green writing.
