I feel the same way about this book that I did about the first one. I think that Hank Green is really smart and writes like he’s really smart and I am not really smart so reading a really smart explanation of something is a little hard. I think if I cared more about science, these books would have been more my speed, but I don’t so here we are. However- I think the plot is really interesting, I think the majority of the characters are lovable, and I think it’s an excellent and very artful take on humanity. I think Hank Green does a beautiful job of exploring earth & humanity from an “outsider” perspective, which makes it feel far more beautiful and hopeful than looking at it from the inside. If you like science & understand it, I would definitely recommend this. It’s not exactly my speed but I finished both books and they were worth the time!
