I rearranged the books in my office this week and discovered a healthy subsection of books about math or with math-adjacent topics or characters. #mathematiciansturnedbooksellers #amitheonlyone

rachel_mbc @MrBook I'm a math grad school dropout, so I'm always interested in the math books that come across my desk. 8y
MrBook For some reason, I didn't enjoy math past algebra. But I like reading books about math 😆. Can you be my #MathRead go-to person? lol. @BookBabe says I'm a #ManOfContradictions. For example, I don't drink coffee but my favorite ice cream flavor is Ben & Jerry's Coffee Coffee Buzz Buzz Buzz! Lol 8y

rachel_mbc @MrBook Ha ha, absolutely. Have you read Jordan Ellenberg's How Not to Be Wrong? He's really great. I also love A Mathematician's Lament by Paul Lockhart as a good look at the way we teach mathematics in school.![[tagged book]](https://image.librarything.com/pics/litsy_webpics/icon_taggedBook@3x.png)
