There are so many quotes from this book that I will remember as long as I live. Through the characters, the author presents ideas about life, death, grief, beliefs, and the human experience. One that resonated with me is that religion and science can coexist, and that we don't have to believe in just one.
I will say, if you are looking to read just to be entertained, this may not be for you. The book is slow, and it makes you think. But if you appreciate taking a deeper look into life and learning from the experience, I definitely recommend it.
Also, I really appreciated the scientific facts that were sprinkled in throughout Mae's point of view. It's all very fascinating,
Little Universes is one of the best books I have ever read. Can't wait to see more from this author.
