Absolutely stunning representation of what it’s like to be depressed and have a multitude of regrets in life while also leading up to the inspirational notion that even with them, the important thing is to feel to potential in the life you do have. The wittiness, the realism in the expansion of what is still considered “science fiction”, the way the reader can easily fall in step with the characters and plot line is absolutely a work of great craftsmanship. This is a must read for all types of people, but especially those who are struggling with their own regrets.
