#BookReview of Counting to D by @katescottwrites

About the Book: 

The kids at Sam’s school never knew if they should make fun of her for being too smart or too dumb. That’s what it means to be dyslexic, smart, and illiterate. Sam is sick of it. So when her mom gets a job in a faraway city, Sam decides not to tell anyone about her little illiteracy problem. Without her paradox of a reputation, she falls in with a new group of highly competitive friends who call themselves the Brain Trust. When she meets Nate, her charming valedictorian lab partner, she declares her new reality perfect. But in order to keep it that way, she has to keep her learning disability a secret. The books are stacked against her and so are the lies. Sam’s got to get the grades, get the guy, and get it straight—without being able to read.

About the Author: Kate Scott lives in the suburbs outside Portland, Oregon with her husband Warren. Kate was diagnosed with dyslexia as a young child but somehow managed to fall in love with stories anyway. COUNTING TO D is her first novel. When Kate isn't writing, she enjoys listening to audiobooks, camping, and spending time with her friends and family. Kate also spends a lot of time doing math and sciency things and is a licensed professional engineer.

My Review: From the very beginning, I knew that I was going to like this book. It was fantastically good. It took me less than a day to finish it. This was a story about accepting who you are. Sam's character is very lovable. I really liked Eli. He cared a lot about Sam. And Kaitlyn made Sam feel that she can be normal, even though she's notably intelligent. It is a wonderful story of friendship, it has humor and just a bit of romance.
