Such a poignant book. I really enjoyed the inside look on biotech start-up life and the discussions of science, quantum physics and consciousness. I kept highlighting favourite sentences in it. I truly loved it. * Kate Fagan, author of The Three Lives of Cate Kay * Austin tackles meaty moral and technical ideas, with all the high drama of first love and coming-of-age thrown in. I was rooting for the flawed Zoe and Jack the whole way through. What a ride! * Silvia Saunders, author of Homesick * So much more than a love-story - impossible to put into words. Notes on Infinity surprised, delighted and moved me at every turn; a devourable tale of friendship and trust, power and privilege - and, ultimately, of what it is to be human. I didnt want it to end and then it did. * Charlotte Philby, author of The End of Summer * Notes on Infinity is smart, vivid and utterly compelling. I was rooting so hard for these characters who are so warm and beautifully drawn. A masterfully told story about love, obsession and facing our own mortality. I loved it. * Laura Kay, author of The Split * It's rare that a book both moves and enthrals me as Notes on Infinity did. Taylor has crafted a smart, compelling read that explores the complicated relationships between truth and ambition; science and ethics; and our desire for immortality and the reality of what it is to be human. It's Tomorrow and Tomorrow and Tomorrow, if the protagonist was Elizabeth Holmes. I loved it. * Katie Bishop, author of The Girls of Summer * Taylor shines in her intelligent debut Thrills with her crackling and science-heavy description of the hothouse startup Readers will race through the pages to find out what happens next. This is a winner. * Publishers Weekly, starred review * Notes On Infinity is an utterly compelling tale of love, friendship, and the burning desire to succeed whatever the cost. Think: Lessons in Chemistry meets Tomorrow, and Tomorrow, and Tomorrow. A bright, brilliant debut from an exciting new voice in contemporary fiction. * Lucy Clarke, bestselling author of The Hike * The brilliant love child of Tomorrow and Tomorrow and Tomorrow and The Interestings. It asks all the big questions about existence and meaning and, most importantly, love, but in a way that is so engaging you are swept along by the tide of an enthralling story about tech and billion dollar start-ups. I thought about it the whole time I wasn't reading it and expect to think about it for a long time to come. * Araminta Hall, author of One of the Good Guys * The best of books: one I could not put down while also, simultaneously, wishing it was truly infinite. A perfectly realized novel with crystalline characters and a palpable sense of time, historically and of the characters' lives. Austin Taylor's ability to tell a story is superb and NOTES ON INFINITY is a reading experience to savour. * Lottie Hazell, author of Piglet * If Tomorrow And Tomorrow And Tomorrow by Gabrielle Zevin was about a longevity science empire rather than a video game behemoth, it wouldn't be far off this buzzy new novel * Stylist *
