The secret science of magic is the story told in two perspectives, Sophia Reyhart and Joshua Bailey. This book is a geeky romance filled with science and magic.
Set in Melbourne Australia, both characters face the final year of high school and ready themselves for the exams. Sophia is a genius and spends her time figuring out the world with math equations and theories. Whereas, Joshua tries to work up the courage to tell Sophia how he really feels with his scientific knowledge and magic tricks.
I absolutely loved this book! It contains puns that are relatable and something a high school student would say. I found parts of the book relatable to my lifestyle (which is actually hilarious) while other parts made me want to scream in frustration. Not only is this book funny and sweet, but, it also contains facts. The facts and some wording in this story are a little mindblowing - It made me feel smarter or dumber - but it can be a little annoying when you mentally question how someone could know this.
The only problem I have with this novel is that it drags on for a bit. But I believe that it's necessary to fully understand and build the character's profile, even though I want to slap them.
I highly recommend this book to older students as it is more relatable to them than juniors.
