Chapter Two Hundred Thirty-Three: An Absolutely Remarkable Thing

On the whole, I enjoyed Hank Green's first novel, An Absolutely Remarkable Thing.  It had an interesting feel to it: the style felt like YA, while the content felt more geared to adults, if younger adults.  It was sometimes a little too easy to be frustrated with the narrator, April May, but then again, that was kind of the point, I think--and the premise of the story (a mysterious and probably alien set of statues appears around the world) was certainly original and engaging enough to hold my attention.  However, if you're the kind of person who likes a definitive end to your stories, this is probably not the book for you; it leaves some questions at the end.  Still, it was an interesting read, and I liked it pretty well.  It definitely kept me on my toes!
