4.5 stars “What if there isn't a purpose? Truth be told in 7 million years of mankind, God hasn't yet alluded to exactly why we are here, maybe it was an oversight, or perhaps humanity didn't get the memo. The most likely rationale is that the human race is merely part of the ecosystem of the earth, much the same as a woodworm or a honey bee. The only difference or the failing if you will is the fact that we are arrogant enough to overestimate our own importance.”

I have a knack for existentialism. That's why Albert Camus is my favorite author.
before I signed up for this book which I got in a giveaway, I swore not to sign up to any book because I had a huge soon-to-read list and because the books will just pile up unread but as soon as I saw the title for this book, I signed up for it.
I didn't expect to like it so much especially because some parts were repetitive and boring. But I am glad I read it. I am glad I finished it because at a certain point I thought I would just give up. But this book is just too perfect.
This book has the perfect length. No boring description. No too quick, or too slow events. Nothing. It was just perfect. A writing style which I would be glad to read in all the books that I want to read.
And, Scott has an AMAZING sense of humour. I am pretty sure he has girls running after him for that sense of humour. Oh, I laughed so hard while reading this book.
What is more fascinating is the fact that even the description is sometimes funny. He would start at how the place is amazing then blow it with a sentence which makes you laugh so hard.
I love you, Scott.
I loved loved loved loved this book.
And the ending was just perfect!

I wish you would write more, Scott!
