A review by xengisa
Everything but the Brain by Jean Tay
5.0
The sort of book that gets better every reread although it already hits from the start. Or it could be that I cry easily, I don't know. My only gripe is that the romance part is a bit funkies but it's not like it detracted from the book a lot.
I just thought it was neat. Time things and physics are neat. The laws of the world contrasted against the smallness of man, and the painfulness of parting. I just think it's neat, you know?
It is not true that everything is relative. Fact is, there is one single truth that we cling to. For the theory of relativity, it's the fact that light travels at a constant speed. Around that truth, all other assumptions fall apart, even the constancy of time.

Similarly, once I grasp that absolute truth in my life, everything else will make sense.
You are the one true thing in my life.
The one thing that never made sense.
