Aristotle and Dante Discover the Secrets of the Universe

4.6

This book is surprisingly good! I knew I should've read it back then. This book is so sweet, romantic, and harsh, all at the same time. I felt way too many emotions while reading this. The story was a well-developed piece of realistic fiction. Should we be ashamed of loving someone of the same sex? Should we be ashamed even if we really love them? Should we love someone and not think about the consequences? Those are some questions you just can't outrun if you “truly” love someone. I commend Sáenz for writing a controversial, yet, very relatable literature that will probably hold much meaning today and the foreseeable future. It's one of those stories that are so pure and raw, it will touch every single person it comes contact with. This book is a gem that shouldn't be overlooked. Highly recommended for readers who loves thought-provoking books. This will change your perception of the world.
