east to pick up to a point where i read the whole book in one sitting. the art was beautiful and the story was interesting and made me reflect on my own experiences. this reflection led to me hanging out at the park by myself at 8pm where i was spotted by some friends from school who were driving by. great experience, would read again

my calc teacher gave my class this book as a recommendation and a couple of us in the class have been reading it as our own little book club. i’m so glad i was able to read it and that i’m able to experience and talk about it with others in the class.

it’s such an amazing and interesting story and even though it’s based so much around space travel and science the explanations from Grace throughout the whole book make it easy to understand or at least follow along. 

there was never a boring part of this book for me and i never knew the twists and turns that came up in the book. this book is legendary and i wish i could read it again for the first time because it was an amazing experience.

a wonderful book that reflects on humanity and the anxieties of everyday life and how they can overtake your mind if you let them. it’s a fantastic story but it’s a lot to read emotionally so make sure you’re in a better mind if you start reading this.
