Until the End of Time: Mind, Matter, and Our Search for Meaning in an Evolving Universe by Brian Greene
challenging
informative

3.0
NYT Notable Books 2020: 26/100
This was a dense read. I thought going in it was going to be a lot more of a philosophy book, and at times it was, but it also had a very hefty physics component. I definitely know a lot more about entropy now than I ever did before! Greene did a solid job of balancing information with explanations. As someone with zero physics knowledge and very little philosophy knowledge, Greene managed to create a narrative that I was able follow (for the most part) while hopefully still engaging folks with a bit more knowledge than me.
