LOVED IT!
Boy, did I have a blast reading this. Easily one of the best and most entertaining contemporary science fiction novels out there - just the perfect blend of sciency stuff, humor, and thrills, all embedded in an absolute delight of a narrative. Would totally recommend.

I was going back and forth between 4 and 5 stars on this one. I really enjoyed the book. The story is unique and entertaining. The reason I took one star away is just that I found myself zoning out for long portions of the book that focus on calculations and chemistry. If you are into a lot of logistics in your sci-fi, I think you'll love this book.

I listened to the audiobook, and felt uncomfortable at times with the white narrator using asian accents. I don't think it was done disrespectfully, but that's not up for me to decide.

That being said, this book has a lot of heart. It's funny and thrilling at times. Definitely recommend.
