"I have only just restarted my reading journey, and this book is not typically in the genres that I gravitate toward. I really enjoyed the author's use of tone and style. There was a sparseness but I found this to be gentle, rather than aggravating. I"

"So Interesting
The story is so sensitively written. The story is kind of hypnotic and the characters draw you in. I really wanted to know what happened in the end. It is a good story. " |

“Sibil is a remarkable achievement, and this museum is the envy of galleries and spaces around the world because you have made your home here with us. Sincerity speaks steadily, taking a breath at each pause: You are being kind, Fernand. It is a great honor for me to work in this beautiful and prestigious building, which so captured my imagination when I was a little girl even before I saw it in mesh. It gives me deep satisfaction that my project will continue to be hosted by the European Museum, and that the museum will be a guardian of its development.

What better place for her to be than here? More”

“We were never going to have jobs in mesh, were we? We were going to live as much in real world as we could, out of principle.

“When Cloud Yabuki-Varma takes off her heart-shaped glasses all manner of items disappear, and when she puts them on they come back, and when she holds them out in front of her nose she can see stuff in the lenses but not around the edges. Spooky. The dinosaurs in Reptile Republic, the instruments in Music Corner, the entirety of Cupcake Garden, the floating mathematical models that can be manipulated to score points: now you see it, now you don’t; now you see it, now you don’t. People do look silly in mesh when you are real world. Her classmates interact with invisible beasts, gesticulate at empty space, laugh in unison when nothing funny has happened. Some big trick. Every child is wearing i-specs in various designs”
