This book is absolutely beautiful. I read it in one sitting and couldn't put it down. The characters, the prose, the science and world just pull you in. I love detailed books like this, with footnotes and articles from fictional scientific journals. 
It is also deeply emotional, I cried several times. I can only repeat my opening sentiment; it's a beautiful book.
