New Moon by Ian McDonald

I sincerely wish this book did not have to end. It has been a long time, save the feels I got from Carolyn Ives Gilman's fast-paced, dimension-bending work in 'Dark Orbit', since I've felt this way about a book. When I would get to the last few remaining pages, even paragraphs, I would set it down and listen to Celso Fonseca distractedly just to save myself a few more minutes before the end. Trying to stave myself off from the inevitable, agonizing conclusion. It's the kind of book I would read all over again if I didn't have to return my copy for the 37 other people who are in the hold queue at the library.
