Ambitious, unique and touching, I've definitely never read anything quite like it.

Annoying. NYT best book ever but that just means it’s hard. But also clever. Like the Goin Squad. A path through history starting early and then all the way through to futuristic and then back again - which made me happy. 

skimmed several of the sections but then would be drawn in deeply to others.
