What an exciting sequel.

I did not expect some of the things that Hank set out in the world in this book.

There are layers upon layers of how my mind was interpreting this book after I would set it down. Still now, writing this review months later, I can feel it. The characters grapple with big, big life questions in different ways. While we may not, yet, have Carl influencing our world, we do have the power to change our own stories. Yes, those stories are now influenced by the lightning-fast pace of communication and potential for massive communication for good or ill, but they are our stories nonetheless.

I don't think this book would make sense without reading An Absolutely Remarkable Thing.

These books are very on brand for Hank Green - a little technology and science, a little quirky, and a whole lot of optimism.
