Hazel (1853 KP) rated An Absolutely Remarkable Thing in Books

I read this because I'm a big fan of John Green. I love his writing style and have watched him and Hank on YouTube. I hoped Hank would be as good at writing as his brother. I was not disappointed.
This book, however, is nothing like a John Green story. The characters are in their twenties rather than their teens and the storyline is science fiction. Hank's writing style is also different, however, it is different in a good way. It is captivating, easy to understand and makes you think and feel a whole variety of things.
So, if you like John Green and want to see what Hank can do, you won't be disappointed. Likewise, if you're not John Green fan, you'll still love An Absolutely Remarkably Thing. It's a win-win situation.
The only negative? A cliffhanger. The story ends on a BIG question mark and it is unlikely we will ever find out what happened. I guess it's up to our own imaginations.

Another John Green Bestseller
Looking for Alaska was an excellent book that grabbed my attention so much that I finished it in a day! This book gave me so many emotions; I was on a feel roller coaster until the very end. My favourite character was Alaska. Like all John Green books, I have read this is a fantastic read, I would recommend to many. Although, heads up the almost end broke my heart.
