With an endless supply of books for women to choose from, this one shows potential to become one of the best books of 2021. Maths aren’t for everyone, and while numbers may come easy for some, Rachel wants to make the subject more enjoyable for those who find it more challenging.
“I will be taking you by the hand and leading you every step of the way,” she added in her video. “It's a fun maths book, so there's more references to football, cocktails and even vajazzles than you might expect.”
Prepare to get cozy with your best eReader as you "discover how to divide and conquer, make your decimal debut, become a pythagoras professional and so much more with these easy-to-learn tips and tricks,” according to the book’s synopsis.
Rather than stare at a dull textbook, her book also comes "Packed full of working examples, fool-proof methods, quirky trivia and brainteasers to try from puzzle-pro Dr. Gareth Moore.”
