Brought to you by Penguin.

Normal People meets The Dropout with a dash of Tomorrow, Tomorrow and Tomorrow in this epic love story of two young Harvard students with a shared dream who are drawn into the vortex of American start-up culture.

A GOODREADS HOTTEST DEBUT NOVEL OF 2025
THE 2025 DEBUT THAT WILL STAY WITH YOU FOREVER
The moment Zoe notices Jack in their Harvard chemistry class, with his scruffy clothes and casual self-assurance, she knows he’s the one to beat.
When Zoe starts trying to outsmart Jack in chemistry, he knows she’s the person he’s been looking for.
Because Jack has dreams that go far beyond the classroom. And while he and Zoe might be from different worlds, they share the same thirst for knowledge and fierce ambition. When he invites her to partner with him on some research, she puts aside her pride, and joins him.
Apart they are brilliant, but together they are unstoppable, and within two years, they are at the helm of a thriving start-up company, and deep in a relationship that seems a perfect match in every sense.
Until a shocking accusation is levelled against Jack which threatens everything they’ve built – their company, their reputation, and most importantly, their love.
Are some dreams too big to come true? And how far would you go to achieve them anyway?
A captivating, deeply poignant novel about ambition, deceit, the recklessness that comes with early success and the way that love can make us feel invincible.

Kritikerstimmen

Notes on Infinity is mesmeric . . . it stole my breath and my heart. It’s a grand story of science and startups, a simple story of first love and belonging and a perfect portrait of friendship, family, and that fine line between exhilaration and agony. I couldn’t have loved it more.
A little like Talking at Night meets Lessons in Chemistry and an absolute must-read for fans of Tomorrow and Tomorrow and Tomorrow. But all other books fell out my head as I read it, because I was completely consumed by Zoe and Jack’s world. Full of passion and conflict and surprise, I adored every page. It fired me up and broke my heart: Austin Taylor has such a talent, reminding me what a wild ride reading can and should be. I’ve already told I know everyone to read it!
Sweet, thought-provoking, full of surprises
I adored it. I have an absolute fascination in start-ups from colleagues’ stories of Google in its early days. This delivered in that respect, but in so many others, too: love, and partnership, and being the only woman in the room, growing up and deciding who you wish to be. It is very clever, but it has a huge, messy heart, which is exactly what I love in a book.
If you liked Tomorrow And Tomorrow And Tomorrow read this!
From the rise of their billion-dollar start - up to its crashing demise , this beautifully-wrought debut explores sexism, the ethics of playing with immortality and the complexities of mixing business and pleasure
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
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.
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.
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.
