Comforting, almost to the point of being saccharine. But like. Just so good.
It's like if you took the intellectual, self-serious 2010's sci-fi movies (Interstallar, Arrival, Oblivion, Gravity) and then injected them with JOY (and a smidge of Roland Emmerich).
Moderate: Suicidal thoughts, Medical content, and Injury/Injury detail
Minor: Kidnapping

I will say a lot of this book is corny, but corny makes it fun. It did have its moments that were emotional, I absolutely shed a tear or two 😅😅
This book was a tbr book for me that was chosen for my work book club. I don’t remember how I first heard of this book, possibly book tok lol. I am very excited to discuss this one.

This isn’t a book that I would normally read but I’m glad I gave it a chance. There’s definitely some science-dense sections but the author does a great job about rephrasing and dumbing down the topics so it’s easy to understand.
a really wholesome story and I still smile when I think about it.

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
"The way Grace went from being forced to sacrifice himself for humanity to voluntarily doing it for Rocky [...] "
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
