Book Review - How To Live Safely in a Science Fictional Universe

How to Live Safely in a Science Fictional UniverseHow to Live Safely in a Science Fictional Universe by Charles Yu

My rating: 4 of 5 stars

My first impression of this book was that it was going to be a "look how clever" type. You know the type; an author takes a strange idea (time traveler mechanic in sci-fi universes) and adds extra-lyrical and pseudo-philosophical prose. And, all the critics applaud.

However, the more I got into it, I realized it was really about the basic themes of love, family, friendship and living up to one's potential. It was quite sweet and even moving. I quite enjoyed it.
