What a fucking book. This is a gorgeous generational coming of age novel, and I'm really upset with myself for not reading it sooner. This book deserves every accolade it has ever gotten, and fully deserved the Pulitzer. My only regret is finishing this book, for now I can never recapture the magic again.

YEEZY YEEZY WHATS GOOD

Much much needed. Thank you Matt

This is utterly exceptional in every sense of the word.

As someone's been a vegetarian for over two years, and a vegan for close to two, this book didn't have many surprises for me, but here I am, still so incredibly angry. The case for the continual march towards anthropogenic climate catastrophe is borne on the backs of agribusiness, both agriculture and aquaculture, and here we are, continuing to not rectify our mistakes. If eating animal products is the single biggest thing that people can do in order to combat climate change, and animal agribusiness is the largest contributor to climate change, the option seems fairly sensible to take. I know, theres 100 companies (or whatever the constant instragram story performativeness that gets shared says), that are directly responsible for the state of the world, but that doesn't give you any and all excuses to sit back and not do anything. We are approaching the end times, and either you can act and try and mitigate something, or you will die. There is no more black and white.

So begins the journey to The One Impossible Labyrinth with this, the first ever Matthew Reilly book that was published. Matthew is most probably my biggest inspiration of terms of authors, and if I can be half as successful as he, then it will be a good life.

There is no one else like Matthew Reilly and Shane Schofield.

Every day is a good day to have a good day.

just utterly exceptional
