The Theory of (Not Quite) Everything by Kara Gnodde
My rating: 4 of 5 stars
This book started out slow for me. It took me a while to understand and like Mimi and Art. But once I did, I fell madly in love. I thought the book did a great job making the reader experience Mimi’s confusion about Frank and balancing her own happiness with the need to take care of her bother.
Even though there are bits and pieces of this story I could criticize, overall I really loved it. It explores deep meaningful topics like family, parent’s death, connection, love, trust, safety, friendship, fear and loneliness. There’s so much depth and beauty to the real characters here.
with gratitude to HarperCollins and edelweiss for an advanced copy in exchange for an honest review.
