Interesting idea that didn't pan out in the long run. A definite sense of anti-climax in the end. I don't need every last thing resolved, and I'm fine with ambiguous endings, but this feels like he just thought "Meh. I'm bored with this." and so he ended.

Geweldige openingsscène en er zitten toffe dingen in dit boek, maar het gaat me niet bijblijven. Giordano had wat mij betreft meer tijd kunnen nemen om de relatie tussen Alice en Mattio uit te diepen; ik kon hun band nog niet echt voelen. Het is alsof hij nét iets dieper had moeten gaan.

Book two of the #xmasbooktubeathon complete.
This book was a bit of a disappointment. I'm not really sure what I was expecting but it was not what I read. This book was confusing at times with the timeline and the characters seemed incredibly flat to me. I wanted to really love this book with the math and the wonderful descriptions of prime numbers. Those parts of the book were great.
But when it came down to it, I don't know what the point of this book was. Alice and Mattia were cute together but their lives went different ways. And the end was just so open, it was frustrating. I have not idea what comes of Alice and Mattia and their relationship.
