Welcome to Litsy!

I really wanted to like this book because astronomy is one of my "secret" fascinations. But it fell very short. It starts off ok, and my only confusion stems from a European sport Idk about but later the author references diagrams in the physical book...which kind of defeats the purpose (imo) of the audiobook. If anything, this is more of a companion to the physical. In conclusion, I understood almost nothing bc I couldn't see the diagrams ?

Content-wise, I felt this was more of a review for me, given that I had started my meanderings into cosmology/physics with Brian Greene‘s “The Elegant Universe.” But it‘s not lacking in star appeal (no pun intended)…I‘m a huge fan of Stephen Hawking, RIP. I‘d recommend this short book to anyone wanting their black holes, neutrinos and particle colliders put in introductory lay terms, from a famed theoretical physicist with a sense of humor.

A great book and written in a way that you enjoy reading it.

This is the first book of every science enthusiastic person. This book describes the beginning of time, big bang and how it may end. As Prof Hawking was famous for his black hole hypothesis, hence more about that singularity is being explained in a reader friendly way.

This is my first book finished for the #BooklyReadathon. It‘s been on my #tbr for years, so I‘m glad that I finally got around to reading it! Can‘t say I fully understood it, but it was interesting. I feel like I‘ll have to do several rereads for all that info to really sink in. Another one for my #BookBucketList! 4/5⭐️

This is read by Dion Graham. I love his voice. And science is always interesting to me. This Neil deGrasse Tyson dude is pretty funny. And the narrator's delivery is sort of epic.

No one can explain how important the changes around a single #second can be quite as well as Hawking.
