Anybody got any thoughts on this one before we start?
Has anyone read anything similar to this before?
Anybody read anything else by this author previously?
finished it :) i can't even decide whether i liked the ending
I liked this book - it was a really cute contemporary. I actually want to read the companion novel :)
also did anyone else find the math puns at the end of each chapter rather unique?
overall it was a good book, though with a rather rushed HEA/ending. I thought it was rather sudden and could have been fleshed out more.

20% in-not quite as acerbic as Mean Girls, but the characters are entertaining enough.
35%-warming to this. Ashley is more reserved than she should be. Vincent seems too good to be true.
57%-like Ferris Bueller but with the bit tagged on where you see the upshot of the day off.
70%-really hope this doesn't get too messy
85%-come on, get this sorted!

Haha... Yes, they do.
1 gorgeous, scheming new girl +
1 Mathletics competition =
1 big mess
SIMPLIFY.
Ashley Price doesn’t have much in life after being bullied so hard she had to leave her old school to live with her aunt and uncle in Pittsburgh. But the camera she borrowed from her best friend and secret crush Brendan, and her off the charts math abilities, make things a lot more bearable. Plus, since Brendan is the captain, making the school Mathletes team should be easy.
But when gorgeous new girl Sofia rolls in and steals Brendan, Ashley's place on the team, and her fragile foothold on the Mansfield Park Prep social totem pole, it’s on. Sofia is everything Ashley left her old school to escape. The only thing Ashley didn’t count on is Sofia’s sexy twin brother Vincent.
Vincent is not only the hottest boy in school, he’s charming, sweet, and he’s got his eye on Ashley. He’s also not taking no for an answer. There's no real reason Ashley shouldn't like Vincent, but with the
battle lines being drawn between her and Sofia, Ashley’s not sure which side he’s on. Or which side she wants him to be on.
She does know Sofia is trouble with a capital T, and she’s determined to make Brendan see it.
SOLVING FOR EX is a YA contemporary romance that remixes Mansfield Park as Clueless meets Mean Girls in a crazy mix of high school society, mathletic competition, and teenage romance.
