Jennifer Chiaverini’s historical fiction novel about Augusta Ada King-Noel, Countess of Lovelace, takes us back to 19th century England, to discover a woman whose mathematical insights may have been instrumental in making the essential the connections that led to today’s computers. You can read my review of this book about the unfortunately short life of Lady Lovelace here.

"It’s a platonic love story about an old woman and a 17-year-old who go to funerals even though they don’t know the deceased. It’s just fucking awesome.”"

It's a love story, only between men instead of the usual man and woman. I enjoyed it because it was sweet and showed the development of the characters feelings.
