Green manages to blend humor, mystery and science fiction in his fast-paced debut novel. \u00a0 Associated Press A deceptively romp-y novel about mysterious samurai alien robot statues appearing all at once, everywhere that has hidden and absolutely remarkable depths....Green's understanding of the power and limits of social media is incomparable, what Douglas Coupland did for the elation and misery of the tech-bubble with\u00a0Microserfs, Green does for YouTubers and other social media stars. It makes for a novel that's always charming, always fast-paced, but which is sneakily and uncomfortably ambivalent about the things it celebrates. It gallops to a startling and great ending (I read it all in one sitting) and lingers afterwards. Cory Doctorow,\u00a0BoingBoing [An Absolutely Remarkable Thing] is perhaps as honest a look as we will ever get into the phenomenon of cyberfame, and Green balances this careful introspection with a plotline that is both fun and mysterious, puzzling and compelling Green quickly proves himself adept not only at playing into our 2018 anxiety and love\/hate relationship with social media, but also at driving suspense, world-building and a true love for science fiction. \u00a0 Bookreporter With this comic story about the ugly side of Internet fame, Green gives his brother...a run for his money. People [Green] applies wit, affection, and cultural intelligence to a comic sci-fi novel....A fun, contemporary adventure that cares about who we are as humans, especially when faced with remarkable events. Kirkus Reviews (starred review) Led by an earnestly flawed, bisexual heroine with direction and commitment issues, coupled with an abundant generosity of spirit, this read is timely and sorely needed. Highly recommended. Library Journal (starred review), Fall 2018 Best Debut Novels Green makes an entertaining book debut in this fast-paced, witty first contact novel At once funny, exciting, and a tad terrifying, this exploration of aliens and social media culture is bound to have wide appeal to readers interested in either theme. Booklist\u00a0(starred review) A captivating debut from a talented new novelist. Bustle A quirky millennial mix of sci-fi alien mystery, celebrity and social media commentary. Family Circle Hank Green, super-vlogger and brother to YA legend John, pens the heart-warmer An Absolutely Remarkable Thing. Cosmopolitan Sparkling with mystery, humor and the uncanny, this is a\u00a0fun\u00a0read. But beneath its effervescent tone, more complex themes are at play. San Francisco Chronicle It s not in the nature of a sci-fi comedy blockbuster to shift boulders in your soul. But with his debut novel, An Absolutely Remarkable Thing, Hank Green pulls it off....There are still a few exceptionally remarkable things that rise above the rest of their absolutely remarkable peers. In the pages of An Absolutely Remarkable Thing, April s discovery of New York Carl is one of these exceptions, in the real world, Green s debut deserves to be another. [It] delivers unexpected delights and pathos you will feel smarter and more complete for having read it. Paste Magazine, 12 Best Novels of 2018 Green s debut novel is an adventurous romp that combines science fiction and interpersonal drama to explore identity, relationships, a polarized world and the influence of media and popular opinion. An Absolutely Remarkable Thing is a fun, fast read that invites readers to contemplate their position in the modern world. BookPageAn Absolutely Remarkable Thing is an extremely fun read. At every turn, you ll be dying to know what happens next. Hello Giggles Packed with meditations on the nature of celebrity, social media, and the cultural response to the unknown. Harper's Bazaar The genius of Hank Green's book lies in the way he skillfully mixes such a variety of topics and messages and melds them brilliantly into a gem of a first novel. \u00a0 News Tribune Both thought-provoking and entertaining a laugh-out-loud, fast-paced story that is just plain fun to read. Shelf Awareness Existential questions born of online stardom figure prominently in Mr. Green s debut novel. Wall Street Journal Ambitious. \u00a0 Entertainment Weekly Surprises in its willingness to delve into the unknown and the unknowable, exploring how modern internet fame twists and chops reality and peoples lives via the story of twenty-something April May. B&N Sci-Fi & Fantasy Blog [A] smashing, fantastical debut...\u00a0Step aside, John Green it's time for Hank to take over the literary world. \u00a0 PopSugar, Best Books 2018 You're about to meet somebody named April May who you're immediately going to want to be best friends with. And bonus, she spends all her time having incredible adventures with giant robots and dream puzzles and accidental Internet fame. An Absolutely Remarkable Thing is pure book-joy. Lev Grossman, #1 New York Times bestselling author of the Magicians Trilogy \u00a0 Fun and full of truth. To be honest, I'm a little irritated at how good the book is. I don't need this kind of competition. Patrick Rothfuss, #1 New York Times bestselling author of The Kingkiller Chronicle This is the book my teen self would have loved, and my adult self immediately obsessed over. I turned the pages of\u00a0An Absolutely Remarkable Thing\u00a0so quickly the pads of my thumbs were worn smooth by the time I finished it. It provokes the mind, tickles the spirit, and April May is the terribly relevant young protagonist we've been waiting for. Ashley C. Ford, writer Funny, thrilling, and an absolute blast to read. I knew Hank would be good at this, but I didn't know he would be this good on the first try. John Scalzi,\u00a0New York Times bestselling author and Hugo Award winner By turns joyful, devastating, personal, zeitgeisty, modern, classic, fast-paced, and thoughtful, An Absolutely\u00a0Remarkable Thing blew me away with its fresh take on first contact in this fragile, ever-connected world we live in. Quick but never shallow, it will stand as a snapshot of an era as well as just a darn good read. Catherynne M. Valente,\u00a0author of The Refrigerator Monologues and Space Opera Hank Green hasn't just written a great mystery adventure (though he has), and he hasn't just written the most interesting meditation on the internet and fame I've ever seen (but he did that too), Hank has written a book in which the page-turning story and the fascinating ideas inform and support each other.

Adequate single-volume biographies about FDR abound. But none are as heroically objective and wide-angled as this fine Dallek effort. . . . By tapping into the vast correspondence between Churchill and Roosevelt, Dallek discerns a more strained relationship between the leaders than presupposed. . . . Luckily for us, Roosevelt is with us again in Dallek s outstanding cradle-to-grave study. When it comes to choosing the two indispensable presidents in U.S. history, Dallek places Roosevelt alongside Abraham Lincoln, the other great improviser with Providence on his side. Douglas Brinkley, The Washington Post \u00a0 Dallek fully incorporates into his narrative Roosevelt s complicated, conflicted relationship with the several women in his life and is especially good on the role Eleanor played, as goad and political advisor. He also makes it clear, in a way other biographers do not, that almost from the moment he entered office, Roosevelt set out to educate the nation to the fact that the United States was threatened not only by economic depression at home, but also by fascist aggressions abroad. . . . Dallek s is a workmanlike addition to the literature on Roosevelt. David Nasaw, The New York Times Dallek constantly seeks to find an answer to FDR s political trajectory: What fueled his ambition to serve in the political arena and with what political aims? Also the extent to which it was FDR s experiences abroad as a child, then at school, at Harvard, in the New York legislature that determined his later progress in the real world. Undergirding all of these, Dallek sees Roosevelt s moral war on deceit and corruption. In an era in which moral, linguistic, and financial corruption hold sway, this story could not be more timely. . . . From beginning to end Dallek has earnestly followed his own curiosity as a citizen and as a teacher, so that at last we come to see in FDR the magisterial, central figure in the greatest and richest political tapestry of our nation s entire history. Nigel Hamilton, Boston Globe \u00a0 [Dallek] believes that FDR was a born politician of ferocious and very nearly infallible instincts, and through a combination of extensive research and first-rate storyteller s gifts, he makes the reader believe it, too. His Roosevelt is a man of great but always complicated drives, a worrier and second-guesser who nonetheless often believed the intensely stirring things he so often said and wrote. . . . Dallek relates in fine and compelling detail all the thorniest scandals of the FDR years. . . . But far more prominent than scandal in these pages and far more welcome are Dallek s frequent examinations of the now-forgotten political opposition FDR faced at every stage of his long tenure as president. . . . We see FDR afresh, which is an amazing feat in its own right. Steve Donoghue, Christian Science Monitor An insightful, incisive and intelligent one-volume work of biography and history and a pointed primer on how things in Washington get done. In a period defined by division, gridlock and tweet storms, Dallek crafts a pointillist portrait of the four-term president, who knew almost intuitively how to use the power of his office and how to reach consensus. Peter M. Gianotti, Newsday Few scholars have the qualifications of Robert Dallek to tell this story. . . . Franklin D. Roosevelt: A Political Life covers much more than the momentous challenges faced by FDR as president. It gives an honest outline of his life including his attitudes as a privileged undemocratic snob who used the influence of men he considered unworthy of public influence. . . . Despite the book s size, the complexity of its subject, and the narrative s variance with common public memory, it is a fast engaging read that corrects, even scatters, misconceptions. The author provides an entertaining narrative in a style not unlike that of FDR. Robert S. Davis, New York Journal of Books A characteristically adroit work that is balanced in coverage and prudent in assessment. . . . [Dallek s] emphasis falls on the two great crises of FDR s presidency the Depression and WWII and highlights FDR s emergence as a skillful politician. . . . All will benefit from Dallek s principal addition to earlier works on FDR: the convincing argument that as early as May 1943 FDR was showing signs of the illness that would kill him. The result is a comprehensive retelling of a major American life that will rank among the standard biographies of its subject. Publishers Weekly This focused study of the four term-winning president emphasizes his instinctive feel for the public mood. . . . Dallek is a seasoned presidential historian and biographer. Here, he writes with authority about Franklin Roosevelt s political life and mission to create a new social order during a time of enduring national transformation. . . .\u00a0Dallek examines several formative factors that contributed greatly to Roosevelt's ability to successfully tap the public sentiment and address significant issues. . . . The author also effectively shows how Roosevelt was an astute political animal who sometimes made questionable decisions for political expedience. . . .\u00a0A lively one-volume treatment well-suited to libraries and schools. Kirkus Reviews [Dallek] takes on the daunting task of providing a comprehensive one-volume biography of Franklin Delano Roosevelt. He succeeds in presenting the abundance of information in a flowing and highly readable narrative, and he supports FDR s story with memorable sketches of the president s many associates . . . his varied opponents, the foreign leaders who served opposite him (Dallek is particularly good on Churchill), and many others. Eleanor, too, is portrayed in full, complete with a notably honest account of her marriage to Franklin. . . . A first-rate biography and a must-buy for most public-library history collections. Booklist (starred review) Recounts the politician s greatest challenges, including trying presidential elections and the years leading up to and during World War II. Dallek s familiarity with his subject and deep understanding of American history and context shines in his clear and engaging prose. . . .\u00a0readers will gain a solid sense of Roosevelt s political mind and an inspiring appreciation of his mighty character. . . .\u00a0This highly recommended, expertly crafted book will please a variety of readers, especially those interested in biographies as well as presidential, military, and American history. Library Journal\u00a0(starred review) Robert Dallek has brought a lifetime s immersion in the American presidency to produce what will almost certainly be seen as the most authoritative single-volume biography of our most important 20th Century president. Franklin D. Roosevelt: A Political Life is a landmark work that deserves to be placed on the same shelf as those of Arthur Schlesinger Jr., James MacGregor Burns, and William E. Leuchtenburg. Richard Moe, author of Roosevelt s Second Act: The Election of 1940 and the Politics of War A great liberal historian has written the best one-volume biography about our greatest liberal president.\u00a0 Sparing neither criticism nor admiration, Robert Dallek offers an FDR relevant to our sharply divided nation: a master politician who gained the trust of most of his fellow Americans by empathizing eloquently with their problems and working himself to death to solve them. Michael Kazin, author of\u00a0War Against War: The American Fight for Peace, 1914-1918 Robert Dallek is a leading authority on the presidency and his book on Roosevelt is a masterful and complex portrayal of one of America s greatest presidents, a leader who had the vision and character to reveal to the country its potential as a great nation. Howard Dean, former DNC chairman and six-term governor of Vermont Robert Dallek s brilliant portrayal of Franklin D. Roosevelt is an inspiring read, a timely reminder that political leadership involves judgment and intelligence. Battling the Great Depression and a global war, the 32nd president harnessed wisdom to decision making, and political acumen to governance. No historian understands FDR better than Dallek, who has captured in this single page-turning volume how America was really made great again. Martin J.
