I'm not even sure I have the words to do this book justice (but I'll try anyway). This book will reach into your heart, squeeze it tightly, and not let go. I'm positive I'll be thinking about this for years to come and shoving it into absolutely everyone I know (and some people I don't)'s hands. Shelby Van Pelt has created characters that are wonderfully human and feel like they could step right off the page. Perfect for fans of books like A Man Called Ove, Remarkably Bright Creatures is one of those once in a lifetime stories that is sure to leave you wanting to revisit it over and over again - I already wish I could read it again for the first time.
