A big resounding YAY for The Echo Wife. This is absolutely the best book I've read this year.

Now, I'm not a sciencey type person so maybe there were things that someone with a science background would call BS over but, for me, the whole thing seemed plausible and, because of that, scary. I loved Evelyn's perspective and I'm glad we only got her POV. She had emotions but didn't allow them to overshadow her logic. And Martine... I loved her too. I loved the whole damn book. All of it. I don't believe I've ever read anything quite like it.

Now I need to find more books by Sarah Gailey. Because wow.

Massive thanks to Tor Books for inviting me to read this through NetGalley.

I wanted to try this because I love Sarah Gailey, but I don’t think I’m going to keep going for personal reasons.
