Review of 'A Brief History of Time' on 'Goodreads'

4 stars

Finally got around to reading this classic masterpiece. I'm not giving it 5 stars because I don't really think I understood all of it. There's quite a few bits that honestly went way over my head but it is almost magical in the way it summarizes the universe and logically argues why we believe there was a beginning to the universe and why we might be wrong. It is lighthearted every once in a while and makes science seem gigantic and full of possibilities.
It is definitely a book worth coming back to in the future, even if just to see if I can understand it any better.
Rest in Peace, Mr Hawking, your legacy is enormous and most of us are just beginning to discover it.
