"The Kiss Quotient" by Helen Hoang is a brilliant econometrician who excels at math but struggles with social interactions due to her autism. Convinced that love and intimacy are skills she can master with practice, she hires Michael Phan, a charming escort with his own hidden struggles, to teach her about relationships. What begins as a business arrangement quickly turns into something deeper as both Stella and Michael confront their insecurities, challenge their assumptions about love, and discover that sometimes, the best formulas in life are the ones you don’t plan.
