Just fantastic. Totally transports you back into your awkward teenage years, with that first love you'd do anything for and thought would last forever. Rainbow Rowell is superbly talented at picking the right words to convey the frenetic, confusing, overwhelming feelings involved. Would read again, no question.

One of the best science fiction books I've read in years. Full of tension, and the “average Joe” tone of Mark really helps you connect with him.

I especially enjoyed the fact that the science involved was complex but understandable, it almost reminded me of Michael Chrichton in the way the realism contributed to the story rather than just being an info dump.

Overall, a fantastic book that any fans of realistic sci-fi must pick up!

Some parts were very creepy. Most of it was a bit too artsy for me.
