Enchantress of Numbers by Jennifer Chiaverini


What would you want to see happen to the characters after this book (or the last of the series) ends?

This book tells the inspirational story of Ada Lovelace, a famed mathematician who broke down gender barriers with her work. It is told from the perspective of Ada Lovelace, but unlike what people expect, the book was actually quite interesting. I hoped that after the section of the story that is told, Lovelace might have been able to expand her work on her flying machine but unfortunately, (spoiler alert), now long after the events that are described in the book came to take place Lovelace died at age 36.
