This book has "we switched to perforce and everything broke down" as a plot point and it is the most relatable a book has ever been.

About the only complaint i would have is that it's a story of fallible humans - so fallible, in fact, that if it wasn't for the strong writing you'd be wondering whether you should care about them at all.

So I'm giving a time travel story 5 stars. But, not for time travel.

I dig this work for the splendid captivity of the Mellennial mindset, and the superlative diction and use of language by the scientists. As a time travel story I think I missed something in causality somewhere, but the way the words all fit together beautifully is superb. I loved this book, probably not for the reasons I'm supposed to, but it was brilliant all the same.
