An Absolutely Remarkable Thing

I don't read YA but this is Hank Green's debut and there are few humans I do not know personally but adore as much as the Green brothers. My conclusion is that this is a very valuable and essential book for the genre (and indeed all genres): with personal insight and tons of wisdom Hank addresses the nature and power of the social internet, it's potential, the difficult reality of social media fame, and so much more. A very contemporary book, firmly grounded in the (western) young adult world of online communities and living, a world largely ignored by fiction but unmissable in real life. The former really baffles me but Hank, as he does so often, took care to lead the way. Thank you ♥️

-Also YES HANK, you do have a beautiful book cover. If you are a nerdfighter you will recognise a lot of Hank in the pages of the book.
-(I don't want to refer to how engaging the language or the plot was, I'm not a YA reader anyway and it's not the point I'm trying to make.)
