A well done story made of separated chapters (lives). First five used to be separate short stories, but they still worked for me as a part of the novel. 
The second half (7th life especially) dragged slightly, but was still engaging enough.
It has several
POVs, and might be an issue for some people. I myself prefer books with 1-2 POVs, no more.
Still, liked it a lot.

Immediately when I started reading this book, I was so excited at the thought of going back and re-reading it. The way the author flawlessly introduces characters and has you empathize with them is incredible.
