For this book, I think I will just add my favorite quotes from each portion I read as my reviews.
“But I got used to it, to never being alone, but always a stranger among strangers…I never allowed the noise and monotony of the day-to-day into my private kingdom.”
“My existence took place within me, mostly unreflected in external events”
“So I found my home in the cosmos”

“But no God took us under his wing”

This book is infuckingsane. And Willy Reese is legitimately one of the best authors I’ve ever read.
