I've read it three times now. One of my favorite books. It gets stressful at parts, but definitely worth it. Two part series, you don't want to miss the second book. If you like anything Hank Green has ever done, there's a good chance you'll like his books.

I mean holy shit, this book has it all. it's incredible. it's strange and funny and heartfelt and inventive and has decent social commentary and clever mysteries and truly it is a really really good book. I'm absolutely dying to get my hands on the sequel. also, hank green found a way to build a content warning right into the book, which I loved.

This is one of my favourite books and this is my third re-read. I listened to the audiobook which is so well done and I found it just as gripping as reading it on paper. The world building is fascinating, I love the characters and the plot is so much fun. I've only read the sequel once but I also loved it so I'm making that my next audiobook.
