The Unknowns: A Novel | Gabriel Roth
28 posts | 6 read | 1 reading | 2 to read
Eric Muller has been trying to hack the girlfriend problem for half his life. As a teenage geek, he discovered his gift for programming computers-but his attempts to understand women only confirm that he's better at writing code than connecting with human beings. Brilliant, neurotic, and lonely, Eric spends high school in the solitary glow of a screen. By his early twenties, Eric's talent has made him a Silicon Valley millionaire. He can coax girls into bed with ironic remarks and carefully timed intimacies, but hiding behind wit and empathy gets lonely, and he fears that love will always be out of reach. So when Eric falls for the beautiful, fiercely opinionated Maya Marcom, and she miraculously falls for him too, he's in new territory. But the more he learns about his perfect girlfriend's unresolved past, the further Eric's obsessive mind spirals into confusion and doubt. Can he reconcile his need for order and logic with the mystery and chaos of love? This brilliant debut ushers Eric Muller-flawed, funny, irresistibly endearing-into the pantheon of unlikely heroes. With an unblinking eye for the absurdities and horrors of contemporary life, Gabriel Roth gives us a hilarious and heartbreaking meditation on self consciousness, memory, and love.

Alright guys, we‘re back. Starting off, completely unbiasedly, I bloody loved this book. This book is unpublished currently. How did I get my hands on it? Very good question, this is one of my girl‘s ✨unpublished books✨
So, being unbiased, hah, loved this so much-

1 my grandmother on my mom's side. She was a wise woman and loved politics.
2 1983, I would apply to college for Daycare worker instead of Legal assistant. I worked in daycare but never in law.
3. I collect Turtles 🐢, jewelry mostly.

Hello! I knows it‘s been a hot minute. A lot has been happening and I‘m doing my best to help those around me. My Christmas was fun, my New Years was good ( I usually sleep through it) but my mother came over and hubby, mother and I had a great time talking and laughing. Kiddos are loving and hating virtual school. And I have yet to pick up a book to read. Did anyone set a goal of books this year? If so how many? #litsylove

sprainedbrain I set a goal that I‘m definitely not going to hit if I don‘t read a lot more than I have so far this month! Welcome back 😊 4y
Nevermore88 Thank you! What was your goal? Mine was 10 books lol. 4y
MemoirsForMe Hi Mina! Glad you had a nice holiday. My goal is to read 50 books this year. Sounded like a nice number. 😆🤞🏻 4y

@Alora

DaveGreen7777 Hmmm... I‘ll guess being fired for insubordination is the lie? 🤔 5y
Alora Hey Stacy! Thank you so much for playing! I just replied to your #LitsyLove!! I‘m sending them out this week 😀💙 5y
Alora I‘m going to guess the lie is that you weren‘t fired for insubordination? 5y

NeedsMoreBooks The fired for insubordination? 5y
Sleepswithbooks I WAS fired for insubordination!! I was working for 16 years at the courthouse and I said “No” to doing something when two other people were capable of doing it and I had a family to see (I worked with kids). 5y
MemoirsForMe You‘re way too nice to be fired for anything. So that‘s my guess. 😊 5y
Sleepswithbooks @UwannaPublishme - I WAS fired for insubordination 😂 5y
