Once upon a time, I believed it was possible to read every single book, never mind the fact that I'm not actually even interested in every single book. Someone else, in fact, thought of this, and asked, at what point in history would it still have been possible to do so? And What If? 2 answered: likely before sometime in the 1500s.
This actually makes me feel better, even if logically I know I don't want to read every book.
What If? 2 is fun and clever in general, but I realized a few days ago that I was skimming and skipping whole chapters when I didn't understand the science or wasn't interested in the subject matter, and that's okay. This is Matt's book, and he enjoyed it, and I enjoyed it while I enjoyed it and now I'm ready to move onto something else.
Stopped at page 285, in case I ever feel like revisiting.
