Finally something I couldnt see coming from Africa happened... but why did she become dissapointed with the glacial life? Maybe i need to finish before i understand. Hugo kind of a weirdo player. My favourite part of the (wholly underwhelming) book so far was the short paragraph where he waffled about quantum physics. Maybe science fiction will be my next genre.

Theres some poor characterisation of Nora... her 'whole thing' is based off how she is full of regrets because she is too scared to doing anything, and she mentions on multiple occasions how she has social anxiety and can barely speak to more than five people at once. Bearing this in mind, why does she casually deliver an extended TED talk? And then not even overcome her fears/ have a big moment about it? Huh???

Bit depressing, powering through anyways. Not sure where this is going.

so far so good
