It was okay. It will be okay. Both everything and nothing happened, depending on your perspective. Within the head of the main character, everything. From the perspective of a reader, nothing.

I can relate to being that friend dragged along on the self-absorbed journey of someone who thinks the world revolves around them and their mental landscape. Hell, I can sometimes be that insufferable self-absorbed person. It's an exhausting place to be for everyone involved and I'm glad to be free of it for now, both in this book and in real life. I do appreciate that Green has expressed a perspective on mental illnesses and struggles to the world and think that the world is richer for it.

Boring characters and action, unsurprising plot twist, lack of interesting big ideas. Thankfully, it was short and occasionally fun to read.

A great universe, but an insufferable main character.

Great, aside from the rampant sexism.
