Chocky by John Wyndham

4.0

What a great story. It was a very different story than I'd expected, but I'm glad for that because it made it so much more interesting. It's that kind of science fiction that's very down to earth, and makes you think about our role as human beings in the universe. There's a great quote in here that I heard recently and resonated with me about how intelligent life gives the universe meaning, because without it there would be no recording of the days or events, the universe would just live on unobserved.
I've only read one other of John Wyndham's books (The Chrysalids) but I think he had a great writing style. I'm looking forward to reading more by him.
