DNF. Thought it might be up my alley but just isn’t clicking.

Love Delillo’s writing style. The kids are hilarious, even if I’m still having trouble getting used to everyone of all ages speaking continental philosophers.

Translating science into layman’s terms can be challenging enough, but Rovelli has a way of adding just the right amount of literary flourish.

While I didn’t find this one quite as engaging as his book on time, it was still every bit worth the trip. And QT is definitely a trip. The last chapters, though speculative, came the closest to recreating the sense of awe I got from The Order of Time.

Another poetically crafted dive into the current state of physics from Rovelli. I wound up enjoying the historical connections and observations more than I thought I would. The second half, concentrating on quantum gravity, flew over my head frequently, but it did send me off in other directions for future reading.

Just one chapter in and I can tell this is exactly what I need after unplugging from the news.
