I have ADHD so sometimes reading for extended periods of time and finishing things is difficult for me. But this book. This wonderful book.
I finished this in half a day, and it's not a short book. I was so immersed in the character's lives and I related to so many of them. They're good people but they have very human flaws and they just are so well developed and likable. The plot is never boring or dumb and the whole idea of Universe City is brilliant! There's excellent representation for POC's and LGBTQ+ people but it never directly focuses on that aspect of them it's just who they are and it isn't preachy in it's message about academic pressure and the many paths you can take in life.
I would recommend that every young person or teen who is considering college or near the end of high school read this because it completely changed my view on the college narrative.
10/10 this is definitely one of my favorite books ever.
