I recommend this book for any and all Sci-Fi lovers. The real science, however, can be a bit overwhelming sometimes but the story line makes up for it. It picks up pace about a third of the way in, but when it picks up pace it really PICKS UP PACE!
I found the ending to be so heartwarming, I really loved it and enjoyed reading this book.
5/5 for sure

I loved all of the directions the story took and the details; every time I felt like I had a handle on where the story was going it would throw a slight curveball and I'd be glued to my chair trying to figure out what in the world was going to happen. I adored

This book truly left such a wonderful impression and is easily getting categorized into the books I wish I could read again with no memory and will easily be a reread-er for me.
As an additional review for the audiobook: I 100% recommend that everyone try out the audiobook either in tandem with the book or on its own. It's easily one of the best audiobooks I've ever listened to and was so masterfully done. The way that they did

Just a couple notes, one chapter used “stupid” more than a dozen times which is completely unnecessary (cloudy, tired, drugged, distracted, not 100% were all perfectly fine options) I also disagree with the author’s choice
