Wow! I did not expect this to be one of my favorite books of the year, and yet here we are.

The book sucked me in immediately and then it went in a direction I did not expect (with the aliens and everything). But then the more I read, the more invested I became. The emotional journey I went on throughout the book felt healing and insightful. The way the book explores human nature, kindness, and friendship is beautiful.

This is the kind of book I think everyone should read.
