I tried so hard. I kept coming back to it over the span of a few months. I borrowed it from the library multiple times. I tried the audiobook...it's just so boring. Andy clearly only knows how to write one character archetype and the rest is just stereotypes, infodumps and very badly written female characters. I'd rather read a physics book. Life 3.0 by Max Tegmark is a great one - the same amount of math, better plot and a far more interesting read.

This is a brilliant book, in my humble opinion. Not only are the characters well crafted, they are also ones you start to care about. This is definitely a plot driven book, but the characters are what stands out. Some of the scenes had me close to tears because I cared about the characters deeply enough. Just... really well done.
