Synopsis

A fast-paced, hilarious, and ultimately hopeful novel for anyone who has ever worried they might be a terrible person—from the bestselling author of Everyone in This Room Will Someday Be Dead.

Enid is obsessed with space. She can tell you all about black holes and their ability to spaghettify you without batting an eye in fear. Her one major phobia? Bald men. But she tries to keep that one under wraps. When she’s not listening to her favorite true crime podcasts on a loop, she’s serially dating a rotation of women from dating apps. At the same time, she’s trying to forge a new relationship with her estranged half-sisters after the death of her absent father. When she unwittingly plunges into her first serious romantic entanglement, Enid starts to believe that someone is following her.

As her paranoia spirals out of control, Enid must contend with her mounting suspicion that something is seriously wrong with her. Because at the end of the day there’s only one person she can’t outrun—herself.

Brimming with quirky humor, charm, and heart, Interesting Facts about Space effortlessly shows us the power of revealing our secret shames, the most beautifully human parts of us all.

Before uploading this digital reviewer copy, I checked the book's Goodreads page and witnessed an avalanche of praise! Readers, without even reading it, were ready to trade internal organs for a copy, lauding Emily Austin's writing. I wondered why I hadn't delved into her work before, especially sin......more

This one is for the ones who have to mask in everyday conversations, the ones who have constant paranoia about everything from accidentally saying the wrong thing to being murdered, the ones who continually do things that they know are bad for them and maybe not completely ethical, the ones who spen......more

i was willing to lose a minor part of the body in exchange for this book. a pinkie toe, or an appendix. something like that. i didn't have to do that, ultimately, but it would have been worth it. i could read this author's books about crazy weird damaged people healing and being happy exclusively for......more
