Uma história sobre luto, depressão e física
A princípio, o livro parece ser apenas uma historinha sobre uma garota vivendo um verão muito muito triste, em meio a teorias da física e da cosmologia. Mas é mais, muito mais
É um livro sobre como o luto e a depressão podem enlouquecer alguém, podem modificar alguém... e como sermos apenas parte de um enorme e infinito universo pode ser motivo de desespero, ou a nossa tábua de salvação
"I laugh. Sometimes it's so easy to. Other times, it feels like I'm going to implode. And it can be totally at random, when I'm doing something irrelevant - showering. Eating a garlic pickle. Sharpening a pencil and suddenly, I'll want to cry. I don't get it. Denial, anger, bargaining, depression, acceptance. That's what the books promised. What I've got instead is an uncertainty principle - I never know where my emotions are going to end up." pág 129
"There's a wormhole reaching for me, and I'm bruises and hurt as I hold on to him. I don't want to disappear. I don't want to do this any more, but I don't know how to stop it. I'm here. I want to exist. I'm ready yo live in the world again, but the world won't let me." pág 225
"when only seven days had passed, I was the same person, unchanged. I couldn't meet my week-ago self, because of causality. This is different. Me at twelve, and me at seventeen - there's a chasm of grief between us. I lost myself when Grey died, and there isn't a single particle left of who I was. I can meet my younger self, because we're not the same person. I'll never be that girl again." pág 307
