Addition by Toni Jordan
This is a first novel by Ms. Jordan and I think it was a good one. Our main character is Grace who lives a tightly ordered life because she is constantly counting things - number of steps, number of poppy seeds on her roll, number of clothes she puts in her washer, etc. At one time she had a more normal life and taught school. The kids were really good at counting - but not much else. One day she meets a man at the cafe and he is interested in going out with her. She can tell you exactly how many years, days, etc. it has been since last she had a date. Can a guy break through to the real person behind all of the numbers? You will just have to read the book to find out!
