Back in college I took an Astronomy class. I love space and I thought, how could I go wrong by taking this class. It’s a no-brainer! Welp…I was half right – I had no brain left after each lecture and I actually hated the class! It was boring, the professor was monotonous and we just did lots of math. Where was all the cool space stuff?

Space Is Cool as F*ck is actually a really fun book! Warning alert – this is not for children! There is cussing on EVERY page. And while I actually laughed out loud at some of the phrasing, our little ones should probably just skip right on past this book until they are a little older. It sure does make for a fun read though.

I’m not a brilliant rocket scientist so there was a ton of new information for me in this book that I could actually understand (and some that I couldn’t understand without thinking really, really hard). There was also really cool abstract art and drawings as well. This is not a standard space picture book. It is utterly unique – both interesting and fun.

If you have a big collection of books on space or are considering buying a present for someone who is a fan of all things space related, definitely pick this up as there really isn’t anything else like it out there. But I really think to enjoy it to it’s full potential, a sense of humor is a must. Oh, and if you like Bill Nye, there is a pretty fun interview with him as well.

Thank you to #NetGalley for providing this book. I voluntarily reviewed a complimentary copy and all views expressed are only my honest opinion.
