Love stories expressed through mathematical equations - a concept I never thought off or knew I needed until I listened to LeVar Burton read this story on his podcast and simply fell in love with this whole idea!
Read:Désiré by Megan Arkenberg
I very much enjoyed this story, especially narrated by Levar Burton on his podcast, "Levar Burton Reads." There was something very magical about it all, and yet the subject matter was all so mundane and ordinary to a certain extent. Another story from this podcast that I'll have a hard time forgetting.
Review of 'The Simplest Equation' by Nickey Drayden only - 3 starsThis didn't grab me, but I think it's mostly my mental block to enjoying anything to do with mathematics. The aliens-part-of-human-world aspect was interesting, and the idea of a mathematical equation living/breathing and telling a story is nice, but I just couldn't love it because of maths.

5.0⭐ “There’s a terrible rawness inside my chest that I wouldn’t wish on anyone, and yet, I crave more.” **spoilers** Yeah, that's love for sure.If you’re following my reviews, thanks for rolling with me ♡ It’s the fifth season of Stitcher’s LeVar Burton Reads, and we’re gifted with “The Simplest Equation” by Nicky Drayden.

This story made me tear up :'> A beautiful queer scifi story about girls doing math <3
Very sweet, with a heartfelt afterward from LeVar. I love that he’s so considerate. He’s worried that he would not be able to pull off a love story between two women and he wanted to do the story justice as he views reading the story as love letter of sorts to his daughter.
This was beautiful. It made me cry.
Stories make even the most difficult relatable. There are stories everywhere. Even in math.
Listened to as part of the LeVar Burton Reads podcast series.The middle part with the descriptions of math as a way of telling stories and expressing emotions is pretty damn brilliant.But the end and the beginning seems tacked on like an afterthought and honestly it reminded me of the kind of high school AU fanfics which just sucks the magic out of any kind of stories, by placing the characters in a deeply mundane setting as if the original world building didn't matter at all.In this case, the s...
