I feel like I liked this book. I stole it from my dad's shelf. As kid I remember wanting to read the book. Then I did, but I don't really remember what it was about. I only have memories about reading the book, not the actual content of the book. I read it a while ago. 2 years later, I'm trying to write a review about it and I remember nothing. Potentially it's because of the way I remember things, by attaching it to one of my own characteristics, or seeing myself as the character. In this case, a book about science...wait, guys I can't even remember what part of science. I have this memory of teaching a kid how a black hole is formed. I'm pretty sure I learned it in this book. I also have third person memories of myself reading this book, could I have left my body while reading it? I did read it almost exclusively at this school for special needs kids where I work. Those kids swear and fight and abuse me emotionally, verbally, and physically on a daily basis. I've heard that abuse victims often report leaving there bodies and forgetting what damage was being done to them. They explain stepping outside of there bodies. Could I have been so abused at my job that I left my body...wait, in this metaphor the book was abusing me so I left my body...or, well, maybe it was just boring. 2 stars.
