[Review] Remarkably Bright Creatures by Shelby Van Pelt

Published on 26 December 2024 at 14:39

A great book that left me crying at the end. It hits on several universally relevant topics such as family, aging, loss, and grief.

 

I will say that it was a bit of a slow start for me. Several characters' stories were being told, but it wasn't until around half-way through the book that their stories began to intersect. Once everything started coming together, the pace picked up and I was glued to the page.

 

Despite the slow start, this book had a powerful ending, some profound gems of wisdom, and a story so unique that it will stick with me for years to come.

 

4 stars
